年轻的研究人员经常被排除在同行评审和出版的学术过程之外，而这是学术工作的基石。《新兴研究者杂志》是一本开放获取的杂志，致力于发表初中生和高中生的研究。我们调查了学生作者在他们参与科学文章的同行评审和发表过程之前和之后的情况。经过同行评议和发表后，学生们报告说，他们在科学方面的信心和自我效能有所提高，在科学方面的认同感和归属感也有所增加。我们的研究结果表明，即使是最年轻的学者也有能力参与出版过程，我们的数据表明，参与这个过程会产生积极的结果。
Young researchers are often excluded from the scholarly processes of peer-review and publication, which are cornerstones of scholarly work. The Journal of Emerging Investigators is an open access journal dedicated to publishing the research of middle and high school students. We surveyed student authors before and after they participated in the peer-review and publication process of their scientific articles. Following peer-review and publication, students report gains in their confidence and self-efficacy in science, and increased feelings of identity and belonging in science. Our findings demonstrate that even the youngest scholars are capable of participating in the publication process, and our data suggest that participation in the process has positive outcomes.
