  The text contains multiple thinking gaps and multiple streams of the information. There was no one-complete message conveyed in the text. The figures were not consecutive.
• No

  It was not even the pressure to publish that made me to publish but the desire to know the gaps that were missing and improve on the quality of the work.

  I am "author" of all my experimental studies. I prefer do not depend on the number of my publications.
• No

  Because I was lucky enough not to be evaluated that way.

  Some time to increase the no of publications and in hurry scientist are publishing studies in parts and sometime not the conclusive study. Due to which we are not able to make impact in science.

  At my university, for promotion exercises, we are required to publish in three categories: foreign, national, and local. Foreign refers to papers published in journals outside Nigeria, national refers to papers published within Nigeria, and local refers to papers published in journals domiciled in my university and within my state. We are required to publish in all three categories. However, the quality of research that is accepted in national and local journals often doesn't meet the standards of Q1 journals.
• No

   No, I don't think so. I do not let myself be swayed by peer pressure or institutional demands, believing that my research deserves better than that.

  As I answered above, the quality of the publication could have been improved with the addition of molecular and cellular mechanisms, but we preferred to publish the main result without those mechanisms.

  Tenure and promotion deadlines and pressure to publish affected the quality of some of my research.
• Yes

  In my first year of research, I was so excited to have my data published in the Journal of Food Chemistry and later on, I realized I was not ready yet.

  My job requirements affect the quality of research

  The actual idea takes a beating. Because then you divert you attention to tie the loose ends of the data with some additional experiments or information, so that it looks complete and paper ready. The biggest sufferer is the 'idea' as when final comes out it would take way too long because of digressions in the path. Moreover, it wont be new because you kept giving it out in bits and pieces from earlier papers.
• No

  I publish on my own time, not with editors or organizations.
• Yes

  The pressure to publish can be positive as well as negative. One can recall how it forced deeper analysis of how to resolve a particular quantitation problem and how the more intensive research led to the discovery of an accepted solution from another discipline. 
• Yes

  Yes, we could add more value with more experiments performed.
• No

  While I have embreced publishing of other project related articles e.g. protocols, I have always stood my ground that publishing of the results will only occur when we've finalised the project 
• Yes

  I have to hurry and did not have opportunity to dedicate enough time to go through neccesary literature deep enough.
• Yes

  user-426745
  I think that affects in the huge amounth of publications does not have a true impact on science, i think there are a lot of low quality of papers and a really big amounth of metaanalisis that does not have a clear conlcusión.
• Yes

  The published abstract of the research in progress which the title was online with the main project, was indexed in major citation data bases. I had to extract a single objective out of the main research which was the same as the abstract to sent for publication.
• Yes

  user-583963
  Yes, there should be clear understanding of research. If anybody is struggling about the main concept then he/she will definitely struggle in publishing the work.
