abstract = "This paper reports on the main characteristics of a selected sub-set of the newly launched RetractionWatch database. The database contains over 17,000 retracted articles and retraction notifications across various disciplines. In addition to bibliographic data such as title, journal name, authors and dates, the database also includes the retraction dates and reasons for retraction, the publisher and subject areas of the retracted articles. Our analysis includes the type of retractions, the time lag between publication to retraction as well as the main reasons for the retraction. In addition to these characteristics we also included some observations of the citations counts of pre- and post- retractions.",
