Science
Science's brand prestige remains virtually untouched despite high-profile retractions of fabricated stem cell research and manipulated psychology studies. It retracted only 12 papers in 2023, yet the number of flagged studies rose by 30% compared to Cell. A 2021 analysis showed Science's retraction rate is 0.04% of published articles, far below the 0.12% average for all journals, suggesting insufficient scrutiny. This gap undermines its claim to rigorous peer review.
