Building International Scholarship in 4S-Affiliated Journals: A Writing Workshop for Junior ScholarsThe interdisciplinary field of Science, Technology, and Society (STS) has become increasingly internationalized over the past decade. This is a welcome transformation and is reflected in a range of institutional changes including in the content and editorship of the expanded number of journals affiliated with the largest professional society of the field, the Society for the Social Studies of Science (4S). However, there remains tremendous potential to further internationalize the field. Inequities in publishing and mentorship – which impact historically marginalized scholars in all disciplines – have been well documented; efforts to eradicate these inequities are crucial given that robust knowledge production and technology innovation requires barrier-free exchange and opportunities for all. To work toward the goal of internationalizing the authorship pool and bringing STS journals into deeper conversation, a “Publishing in STS” workshop led by a team of editors at 4S-affiliated journals will be held. This workshop will be held immediately before the 4S meeting in November 2023, and will focus on mentoring Early Career Researchers. The workshop will include sessions with the full group that allow students and junior scholars to hear insights and experiences from the journal editors, who are also senior scholars in the field. Topics will include information on the peer-review process and how editors are working to make the review community more diverse and inclusive; insight on English language standards and ideas about publishing in multiple languages; and commentary on resources available for professional development related to publishing in international contexts. The second day of the workshop will focus on small- group sessions in which attendees will receive highly-engaged feedback on a draft article manuscript from the journal editors and from their peers - a conversation that will continue after the Workshop, as editors follow up on the progress of attendees and ongoing peer support is encouraged.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

科学、技术与社会（STS）是一个跨学科的领域，在过去的十年中日益国际化。这是一个受欢迎的转变，并反映在一系列制度变化中，包括该领域最大的专业学会——科学社会研究学会（society for the Social Studies of Science，简称4S）旗下期刊数量的增加，其内容和编辑也有所变化。然而，该领域的进一步国际化仍有巨大的潜力。出版和指导方面的不平等——影响着所有学科中历史上被边缘化的学者——已经得到了充分的证明；鉴于强有力的知识生产和技术创新需要无障碍交流和人人享有机会，消除这些不平等现象的努力至关重要。为了实现作者池国际化的目标，并使STS期刊进入更深层次的对话，将举办一个由4s附属期刊的编辑团队领导的“STS出版”研讨会。本次研讨会将在2023年11月4S会议之前举行，重点是指导早期职业研究人员。研讨会将包括全体会议，让学生和初级学者听取期刊编辑的见解和经验，他们也是该领域的资深学者。主题将包括同行评审过程的信息，以及编辑如何努力使评审社区更加多样化和包容性；对英语语言标准和多语言出版的见解；并评论与国际背景下出版相关的专业发展资源。研讨会的第二天将集中在小组会议上，与会者将从期刊编辑和他们的同行那里获得关于文章草稿的高度参与的反馈-在研讨会结束后，随着编辑跟进与会者的进展和鼓励同行的持续支持，对话将继续进行。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
