Online Module of Research Integrity (RI)

My personal experience with such journals and conferences include receiving seemingly random generic emails containing invitations to contribute articles or do presentations on mental health topics. I didn't pay too much attention to them, thinking that they were just random spam emails and they didn't mean anything. My biggest indicator was that none of them addressed me by name, and a lot of them contained many misspelled words. I first learned of the term "predatory" describing journals and conferences from my classmates who were in Internal Medicine who told me that one of our classmates fell for one of those conferences. Their story contained a lot of the descriptors in the lecture in this module.
