The Research Ideas and Outcomes (RIO) is a journal claimed to be both peer-reviewed, and open-access, published by Pensoft Publishers, stating a goal to promote transparency, reliability, and effectiveness in scientific research.[1]

Since its 2015 launch, the journal has been widely noticed on social media, with the proposal to publish practically any serious-looking submission being questioned.[2][3]

History[edit]

The journal was established in 2015 with the idea of publishing research outputs of different kinds including computer programs, experimental data, and analysis workflows.[4] One year after its foundation, it received a SPARC Innovator Award from the Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition for its work in encouraging transparency in science.[5][6]

Abstracting and indexing[edit]

The journal is abstracted and indexed in ProQuest databases.[7]
