21st Steven Karger Prize Awarded to University of Basel Researcher for Work on Social Exclusion in Cyberspace

The Award went to Christiane Büttner, MSc, for her Publication on Social Exclusion on Social media. 

The 21st Steven Karger Prize was awarded on November, 24 2023 by the Faculty of Psychology of the University of Basel during its annual dies academicus ceremony that celebrates the University’s founding in 1460. Christiane Büttner, MSc, received the award for her publication “Why didn’t you tag me?!: Social exclusion from Instagram posts hurts, especially those with a high need to belong” in the journal Computers in Human Behavior. 

In her work, Christiane Büttner explores the dark side of social media and its impact on user well-being. Together with Selma Rudert, she examines two new forms of social exclusion in social media: being cut off from photos and not being tagged to one’s own profile. In five studies with over 1000 participants, these two previously unstudied forms of ostracism are common and significantly affect the well-being of the users concerned. Short-term social pain can lead to an increased risk of depression, suicidal tendencies and even violence over the long term, as other studies on the consequences of exclusion have shown. Young people in particular, who make up the majority of social media users, are susceptible to the negative consequences of octracism. 
Büttner’s article presents new ideas while drawing on proven methods by laying the foundation for further research in the context of social media. At the same time, her highly topical work contributes to social discourse and effectively bridges the gap between basic social psychological research and practice, which is reflected in the positive media response to her research.

“I am deeply honored to have been awarded the Steven Karger Prize. It has motivated me even more to dedicate my work to addressing relevant societal problems. It is my hope to continue this research to deepen our understanding of social exclusion,” says Christiane Büttner, the winner of the Steven Karger Prize. 

“For Karger Publishers, the promotion and support of young scientists is an important mission. Karger Publishers has been donating the prize that has been awarded by the Faculty of Psychology since 2003. Since 2008, this award has been dedicated to the memory of my brother, the late CEO Steven Karger,“ states Gabriella Karger, Chairwoman of the Board of Directors at Karger Publishers.

Karger Publishers publishes several scientific journals and book series in the fields of psychology and psychiatry.

IOP Publishing launches Sustainability Science and Technology – a new interdisciplinary OA journal aimed at fostering a sustainable future 

IOP Publishing (IOPP) is launching Sustainability Science and Technology, an interdisciplinary, open access journal dedicated to advancing sustainability through cutting-edge research in science, technology, and engineering. The new journal will bring together researchers from diverse disciplines across engineering, chemistry, physics, materials science and environmental science to address global challenges and contribute to a more sustainable future. 

Sustainability Science and Technology sets itself apart by focussing on the critical importance of sustainable impact. Every paper published in the journal will be required to demonstrate its potential to deliver sustainability benefits, whether environmentally, socially, or economically. This commitment is in line with IOPP’s mission to support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and authors will be encouraged to explicitly reference how their work aligns with relevant SDGs in their abstracts. 

The launch of Sustainability Science and Technology comes at a time when the urgency for growth in research and funding to deliver a sustainable future have never been greater as evidenced by a recently published IOP report, ‘Physics Powering the Green Economy’. The IOP’s report shows that 68% of physicists1 think the current level of investment in research and development is too low to deliver the level of growth in the green economy needed to deliver on Net Zero.   

The journal’s Editor-in-Chief, Professor Jonas Baltrusaitis of Lehigh University, USA, and a renowned expert in sustainable catalytic conversion, says: “At a time where all aspects of society are affected by the climate crisis, the launch of this journal couldn’t be timelier. We want to connect communities to collaborate and exchange knowledge and offer authors an interdisciplinary venue to publish their work around sustainable innovations and inventions.” 

Dr Tim Smith, Head of Portfolio Development at IOP Publishing says: “Sustainability Science and Technology will bring together researchers from historically separate disciplines who are united by a shared vision to create a more sustainable planet. We are thrilled to be part of this community and are looking forward to establishing the journal as an essential OA platform for researchers to publish new scientific and technological innovations in alignment with the SDGs.” 

Opening for submissions in January 2024, the journal will publish a mix of article types aimed at serving and representing a broad audience extending to academia, industry, and government, giving authors the flexibility to present their work in the best way possible. 

Eliminating barriers to publication, Sustainability Science and Technology will waive all article publication charges for the first three years, providing authors in all parts of the world the opportunity to publish on an open access (OA) basis to ensure maximum reach, visibility and impact for their work. IOPP data shows that content published OA is downloaded 80% more than paywalled content and cited 30% more, demonstrating the substantial benefits of publishing OA.    

In the spirit of transparency and reproducibility, all authors publishing in the journals are encouraged to share data and code where appropriate for the benefit of the research community. The journals also apply double anonymous and transparent peer review and reviewers can invite a colleague to review with them under IOPP’s newly introduced co-review policy.   

The journal has been endorsed by The Electrochemical Society, IOPP’s fellow society publisher, thereby expanding its exposure to a broader community of researchers.

Recognition of Highly Cited Researchers not only validates research excellence but also enhances reputation, fosters collaboration, and informs resource allocation, acting as a beacon for academic institutions and commercial organizations.” 

This year the evaluation and selection process for Highly Cited Researchers has evolved as we respond to a rise in threats to research integrity. ISI analysts first reviewed Highly Cited Papers™ from the last decade to create a list of preliminary candidates. Enhanced qualitative filters were then used to identify publication anomalies including extreme levels of hyper-authorship, excessive self-citation, or unusual patterns of group citation activity, which warrant exclusion from the list.  

David Pendlebury, Head of Research Analysis at the Institute for Scientific Information at Clarivate said: “As the need for high-quality data from rigorously selected sources is becoming ever more important, we have adapted and responded to technological advances and changes in the publishing landscape. Just as we have applied stringent standards and transparent selection criteria to identify trusted journals, we have evolved our evaluation and selection policies for our annual Highly Cited Researchers program to address the challenges of an increasingly complex and polluted scholarly record.” 

The key findings for 2023 show:  

  • 6,849 individual researchers from institutions in 67 countries/regions have been named this year, but 83.8% are based in just 10 countries and 72.7% in the top five, a remarkable concentration of top talent.  
  • Some extraordinary researchers are recognized in multiple Essential Science Indicators™ (ESI) research fields: 238 named in two fields, 21 named in three fields, four named in four fields, and one named in five fields. Their achievements are truly exceptional and indicate broad, multidisciplinary influence among their peers.  
  • This year 2,669 Highly Cited Researcher designations were given to researchers at institutions in the United States, which amounts to 37.5% of the group, down from 43.3% in 2018. While the slow downward loss of share continues for U.S.-based Highly Cited Researchers, the U.S. clearly still leads the world in research influence.  
  • Mainland China is second this year, as it has been for several years, with 1,275 Highly Cited Researcher designations, or 17.9%, up from 7.9% in 2018. In five years, Mainland China has more than doubled its world share of the Highly Cited Researcher population. This reflects a transformational rebalancing of scientific and scholarly contributions at the top level through the globalization of research.  
  • Among all institutions, including governmental and other types of research organizations, theChinese Academy of Sciences heads the list with 270 Highly Cited Researcher recognitions, up from 228 last year. Other top-ranked governmental or non-university institutions include the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) (105), Max Planck Society (59), Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (49) and the Broad Institute (27).
