Which of the following models of scholarly publishing represents self-archiving?

The Correct answer is the Subversive model.

Key Points

• The subversive model of scholarly publishing typically represents self-archiving, where authors upload their own work to institutional repositories or open-access platforms.
• This model allows scholars to bypass traditional publishing routes by making their work freely available to the public, thus promoting wider access and dissemination without relying on publishers.
• The traditional model involves publishers controlling the rights, pricing, and distribution.
• The alternative model typically refers to open-access publishing through other means but not necessarily focused on self-archiving.
• Automated model involves technology-driven processes for publishing and distribution, but it's not specifically associated with self-archiving.
