Research question
 Transparency is viewed as a means to avoid selfish behaviour
by scientists and increase science accountability and
credibility
 This is true, in principle, but the devil is in the detail!
PEERE Valencia 2016
The basic model
 A population of N agents (authors & referees)
 Resources, productivity and quality
 Evaluation process: intrinsic vs. perceived quality
 Publish or perish

PEERE Valencia 2016
Transparency implications
PEERE Valencia 2016
A conflict of values?
 Is science community a society of peers or is it based on a
hierarchical stratification?
 Next step: adding reciprocity strategies that are sensitive to
hierarchy and status
 Does transparency challenge justice?
 Does “respect” question the “truth”?
 Is transparency a dangerous social experiment imposed
without any control factors?
