《澳门求索》入驻Academia.edu：在学术社交网络中拓展跨学科对话新空间（Quest Macau Joins Academia.edu: Expanding New Spaces for Interdisciplinary Dialogue in Academic Social Networks）

Abstract: Academic dissemination is moving from “one-way publishing” to “socialized interaction.” Quest Macau (ISSN 3081-1414, eISSN 3081-1422, CODEN: AQABAF, DOI prefix: https://doi.org/10.66106/aqabaf), a gold open-access Chinese-language academic quarterly published by Quest Press Limited, has recently joined Academia.edu, a world-renowned academic social platform. Academia.edu is a leading global platform for academic resource sharing and exchange, integrating literature management, academic social networking, and multidisciplinary resource aggregation. It has indexed over 40 million academic articles covering more than 270 disciplinary fields and is often referred to as the “Facebook for researchers.” Unlike traditional databases, the core value of Academia.edu lies in constructing a two-way dialogue mechanism between researchers and journals. Rooted in Macau, the journal focuses on interdisciplinary and cross-cutting research. All accepted articles undergo rigorous international peer review and are published under the CC BY 4.0 license, making them permanently and freely accessible. By joining Academia.edu, the journal will leverage its social dissemination features to establish direct connections with global researchers and expand the space for interdisciplinary dialogue. This article, taking into account the journal's positioning, analyzes the practical value of this move.
