The Streetlight Effect represents an observation bias that occurs when individuals search for something only where it is easiest to look. . . . Our findings indicate that OA journals are 33% more prevalent in PubPeer [a Post-Publication Peer Review system] than in the global total (52% for the most commented journals). . . . However, after normalization, the results reveal that PPPR does not exhibit a Streetlight Effect . . . These results suggest that the process of scientific self-correction operates independently of publication access status.
