    For the record, himjournals.com, while masquerading as an academic publication, is actually an “open academic journal” meaning that its pay to play if you want your work published (payments is one of the main links in the header).

    While I have no specific knowledge of this “journal”, open academic journals are infamous for have little or no peer-review process—despite publicly claiming otherwise—and allowing authors to publish whatever serves the author’s agenda.

    TL;DR: this source has the approximate credibility of a blog post, so think critically before accepting it’s conclusions.
