Introduction Predatory journals threaten academic integrity, highlighting the need to educate young researchers on identifying and avoiding them.

Description

This study aims to develop and validate an educational video to raise awareness of predatory journals and equip future scholars with essential publishing skills. Methodology Between August and November 2024, two Delphi processes were carried out.

The first involved validation of the video script, incorporating feedback from 10 experts in academia and publishing. The second focused on refining the audiovisual components with input from two graphic and communication designers. Consensus was established at a threshold of 100% agreement.

Additionally, 15 young researchers participated to ensure the video was tailored to the target audience. Results The final video was produced following a three-round Delphi process to validate the script and a two-round process to finalize the audiovisual features. Validation by the target audience contributed to enhancing the video's quality and ensuring it was well-tailored to the end users.

The final video has a duration of 10 minutes and 42 seconds. Conclusion This study developed and validated an educational video to raise awareness of predatory journals. Refined through a rigorous Delphi process and audience feedback, the video meets high standards of clarity and usability, offering a valuable tool for young researchers.

Future evaluations will assess its effectiveness.
