“…15 And Leila Khalili and Diljit Singh used UTAUT to study the acceptance of open access journals by researchers in Iran. 16 These studies demonstrate that UTAUT has the potential to help explain technology software adoption and use questions within a library context. At this time, no one has explored bibliographic manager adoption and use through the lens of UTAUT.…”

This study explores how researchers choose a bibliographic management tool and what makes them continue using this tool. This exploratory, observational study combined a naturalistic work-practice method, interviews, and journal reflections to collect qualitative research data from researchers actively using a bibliographic management tool. The unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) model was used as a guiding framework to help provide a better understanding of these researchers' bibliographic management adoption and use behaviors. Findings indicate participants adopt tools because of an expectation of enhanced research productivity, but participants persist in using the tools because of ease-of-use experiences. Librarians were found to have opportunities to influence tool adoption decisions but may have somewhat less influence over researchers' decisions to continue using bibliographic management tools.

“…Intention is viewed as "indications of a person's readiness to perform a behavior" (Fishbein & Ajzen, 2010, p. 39). In addition, intention to behave is frequently used as a dependent variable in a variety of behavioral settings (Fishbein & Ajzen, 2010), including self-identity (Han & Stoel, 2017), perceived quality (Das, 2014), and OA publishing (Dulle & Minishi-Majanja, 2011;Khalili & Singh, 2012;Park, 2007). In addition, intention to behave is frequently used as a dependent variable in a variety of behavioral settings (Fishbein & Ajzen, 2010), including self-identity (Han & Stoel, 2017), perceived quality (Das, 2014), and OA publishing (Dulle & Minishi-Majanja, 2011;Khalili & Singh, 2012;Park, 2007).…”

“…Perceived quality has previously been identified as an important antecedent of intentions in a digital environment (Chi, Yeh, & Yang, 2009;Grabner-Kräuter & Kaluscha, 2003), including scholarly publishing (Catling, Mason, & Upton, 2009;Moksness & Olsen, 2018). Previous studies have identified additional factors that act on publishing decisions, including journal impact factor (Knight & Steinbach, 2008), access type (Dulle & Minishi-Majanja, 2011;Khalili & Singh, 2012), content quality (Bjork & Solomon, 2012), and peer review (Tenopir et al, 2015).…”

“…However, external influences such as perceptions of journal quality are not the only motivational factors driving academic achievement. Internal, personal, or individual values and differences are suggested to influence scholarly publishing (Dulle & Minishi-Majanja, 2011;Khalili & Singh, 2012;Togia & Korobili, 2014). Spanning decades, social psychology has both empirically and theoretically investigated individuals' concepts of self-identity and selfcategorization (Stets & Burke, 2000;Tajfel, Billig, Bundy, & Flament, 1971;Turner, 1985), and how these structures are shaped and interact in various social and organizational settings (Ashforth & Mael, 1989;Hogg & Terry, 2000).…”

The purpose of the study was to understand if and how 2 proposed facets of self-identity (work-self and careerself) and journals' perceived quality (impact, visibility, and content quality) influence and explain the intention to publish in open access (OA) or nonopen access (non-OA) journals. This study integrates attitude and identity theory within a cross-sectional survey design. The sample consists of about 1,600 researchers in Norway, and the data were collected via e-mail invitation using a digital surveying tool and analyzed using structural equation modeling techniques. We determined that perceived impact-quality increases the intention to publish non-OA, while decreasing the intention to publish OA. Content quality is only associated with non-OA journals. Perceived visibility increases the intention to publish OA, while the opposite effect is found for non-OA. Career-self salience has the strongest effect on impact-quality, while content quality is most important when work-self is salient. This research contributes to a deeper understanding about how perceived quality influences intention to publish in OA and non-OA journals, and how self-identity salience affects different facets of perceived quality in valence and strength. Findings have implications for policy development, implementation, and assessment and may contribute to improving OA adoption.

Factors affecting authors' manuscript submission behaviour: A systematic review

As an important medium of science communication, academic journals promote the flow and growth of scientific knowledge. To examine the influence of factors on authors' choice of a journal, this paper reviews the literature on journal selection. A systematic review and critical interpretive synthesis methods were used in this study. A total of 132 articles were included and the content characteristics were extracted. Then, based on behavioural decision theory, the extracted data on journal selection factors were synthesized based on critical interpretive synthesis principles. Four synthetic constructs emerged: factors related to information acquisition, factors related to journal evaluation, factors related to submission outcome feedback, and factors related to the authors' backgrounds. The articles revealed that factors related to journal information acquisition and journal evaluation directly influenced authors' submission behaviour, while factors related to authors' backgrounds were moderating variables. Future research should focus on the processes of manuscript‐submission behaviour, to examine the relationships between the factors and identify the mechanisms.
