“…Their persuasion intent can be seen also in the citations gained, documented by some editorials as >13 citations/year (Iob et al, 2020), confirming their power in influencing other manuscripts. Moreover, their persuasion aim is also visible by accessing the Altmetrics scores indicating the volume and the nature of the attention that editorial receive online (Altmetrics, 2019): as documented by Iob et al (2020), some editorials have reported high Altmetrics scores (e.g., >200) over 5 years, meaning that they have been largely spread in the social media (e.g., around the world). Eitorials might influence also the academic value of the journals where they are published: when editorialists cite the papers published in the last two years, to highlight for example their value or the related issues, they substantially contribute to influence the impact factor of the same journal.…”

“…Evidence of editorials as persuasive tools might be traced in their attributed value: they have been mentioned as capable of 'defining and setting the tone for the Journal' (Gray, 2015).

The aim is to describe which persuasive tool from the triad of Aristotle (Ethos, Pathos and Logos) is most commonly used in editorials to convey visions and ideas in the nursing journals of the last 5 years (2014)(2015)(2016)(2017)(2018)(2019). A descriptive qualitative study, based on content analysis, was performed in 2020 and summarized according to the COnsolidated criteria for REporting Qualitative research principles.Two hundred and eighty-five editorials were included in the study, all of which were published in the top-five nursing journals, specifically, the International

Objectives To investigate what the most common types of articles that nursing journals purport to publish are and what they actually publish? And to investigate the extent to which academic nursing journals listed by Clarivate track alternative metrics? Methods Journals included in the nursing Journal Citation Report journal category in 2019 described as nursing were identified and considered suitable for inclusion in the analysis. Instructions for authors were reviewed online and mention of each type of article identified. The tables of contents of each issue of each journal published during 2019 was examined and the types of articles published were extracted to a spreadsheet into permitted article types and published articles. Likewise, the use of alternative metrics by each journal was extracted to a spreadsheet. Pearson and Spearman correlation analysis was applied to investigate the relationship between articles permitted and articles published. Results In the 2020 Journal Citation Report, 123 journals were listed. The most common article type permitted was original research (n=117), followed by review papers (n=116) and discussion papers (n=63). Original research (n=7045); review papers (n=1268); discussion papers (n=1225); editorials (n=793) and commentaries (n=776) were the most commonly published categories of article. Of journals examined, 108 (96.8%) tracked mentions on social media and the Altmetric score was the most commonly use (75%). There was a strong correlation (r=0.73; p=0,002) between the numbers of article permitted and published and a strong correlation (rho=0.86; p<0.001) in terms of the rankings of the permitted and published articles. Conclusions There is a relationship between the most frequently permitted article types and those published, especially for the most frequent categories of both. Original articles, review papers and discussion papers are the backbone of academic publishing in nursing with original articles vastly outweighing review and discussion papers. Most Clarivate listed journals now use some method of tracking alternative metrics indicating how seriously publishers take their social media profiles.
