摘要
This paper reviews the impact and determines the common characteristics of the so-called predatory publishers and journals on the area of Communication, from the list of Jeffrey Beall, updated in 2018. The work is based on a universe of 1,399 journals and 1,196 publishers which, after a first screen with reference terms (Communication, Journalism, Public Relations, Advertising, Cinema), selected a final intentional sample of 55 magazines and 20 publishers. The journals are classified by their ISSN and their indexing is verified in MIAR (University of Barcelona) and in the Integrated Classification of Scientific Journals (Universidad de Granada).
