β | The title text | + | The title text refers to an issue with publication timing. Sometimes, scientists (or their press departments) issue press releases about studies before they are published in a peer-reviewed journal. News organizations often publish stories based on the press release, even though the full details are not available. In some cases, another story or an update is also published when the journal article comes out. However, some readers may find this duplicative. |
