 The current system of academic publishing encourages researchers to focus on quantity over quality, resulting in a proliferation of low-quality studies with high false positive rates. This problem is exacerbated by the fact that researchers are evaluated based on the number of publications rather than the quality of those publications. Additionally, researchers are incentivized to publish quickly and often, as it can lead to greater career success. These factors combine to create a system where researchers are incentivized to produce large numbers of papers with low quality, leading to a proliferation of false positives.
