Elsevier Science Publisher
Reed Elsevier, Lexis-Nexis, Social Science Research PUBLISHER VIOLATES ALL ETHICS OF SCIENCE PUBLISHING

General introduction to this complaint

This is a complaint and warning about the Reed-Elsevier (aka, Elsevier) journal Social Science Research.

The journal Social Science Research publishes known scientific distortions, anti-minority hate speech, through corrupt publication processes that violate all ethics of science publishing. When anti-minority bigots subsequently reward the journal Social Science Research by causing its "impact factor" to rise explosively, neither the editors of Social Science Research — nor those in the Reed-Elsevier administration above those editors — take proper action to correct the scientific record.

Elsevier's and Social Science Research's behaviors undermine the trust on which science is based.
