Abstract

This study explored the research trends on Twitter in Korea by informetric methods. All 539 articles on Twitter published from 2009 to the April of 2014 were obtained from the KCI. Only article titles, abstracts, and keywords by authors were used in analysis. Academic journals in many different disciplines where Twitter articles were produced were analysed by profiling, and then, the subject areas of researches on Twitter were analysed by co-word analysis. The results of this study showed that Twitter-related papers were published in as many as 53 disciplines with journalism, business administration, and computer science to be core fields. It was also found that the core subject areas are political issues and business.

Abstract

Since the 1990s, informetrics has grown in popularity among information scientists. Today it is a general discipline that comprises all kinds of metrics, including bibliometrics and scientometrics. To illustrate the dynamic progress of this field, this study aims to identify the structure and infrastructure of the informetrics literature using statistical and profiling methods. Informetrics literature was obtained from the Web of Knowledge for the years 2001-2010. The selected articles contain least one of these keywords: ‘informetrics’, ‘bibliometrics’, ‘scientometrics’, ‘webometrics’, and ‘citation analysis.’ Noteworthy publication patterns of major countries were identified by a statistical method. Intellectual structure analysis shows major research areas, authors, and journals.

본 연구는 계량정보학적 분석을 통해 국내 재난 관련 연구의 동향을 파악하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 KCI 데이터베이스를 검색하여 2002년부터 2016년 사이에 출간된 재난 관련 학술지 논문 772편을 분석하였다. 논문들이 발표된 학문분야의 프로파일링 분석과 저널 프로파일링 분석 및 키워드 동시출현분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 국내 재난 관련 연구의 수는 지속적으로 증가하고 있으며 특히 2014년 세월호 사건 이후에 재난 연구의 수가 급증하였다. 재난 연구의 주요 학문영역은 재난관리 정책을 제시하는 정책학/행정학 영역, 관련 기술을 개발하는 ‘공학’ 영역, 지리정보시스템과 통신기술을 연구하는 ‘GIS/통신’ 영역, 재난을 정신건강학 혹은 인문사회학적 측면에서 연구하는 ‘의학/인문사회과학’ 영역으로 확인되었다. 시기별로 살펴보면, 2014년 이후에는 행정학과 정책학 분야의 비중이 감소한 반면에 법학, 의학, 신문방송학 등의 다양한 학문 분야에서 재난 관련 연구가 활발해졌다.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the research trends of disaster in Korea through a bibliometric analysis. To do that, it analyzed 772 scholarly articles published from 2002 to 2016, retrieved from KCI (Korean Citation Index) database. For analysis, discipline profiling analysis, journal profiling analysis, and co-word analysis methods were used. The study found that the number of scholarly articles on disaster has increased, especially after Sewol ferry disaster occurred in 2004. The major discipline areas were identified as ‘policy sciences/public administration’ area, ‘engineering’ area, ‘GIS/telecommunication’ area, and ‘medical/humanities/social sciences’ area. In terms of time series, the proportion of scholarly articles published in ‘policy sciences/public administration’ area has decreased since 2014 and at the same time, discipline areas have been diversified including law, medical, and journalism.

Abstract

This study examined two characteristics of library and information science (LIS) journals in Korea through analysis of journal coupling with common authors. This study also illustrated the trend of Korean LIS research in the recent decade. The notable change is that record management and archival studies settle in LIS domain as a major research area. We introduced two indicators, Publishing Preference Index (PPI) and Researcher Attraction Index (RAI), based on the degree of common authors among journals. Both indicators revealed notable changes in author coupling, including reversal of PPIs in some journals, which can be interpreted as proof of changes in their author groups. The RAI analysis, which measured the degree of journals’ attractiveness to Korean LIS researchers and author sharing between two journals, illustrated the journals’ states in a domain; this result can help find both an isolated journal and strongly bonded journals in the specific domain. Journal coupling with common authors introduced in this study proved to be an effective investigative method for illustrating journals’ states in a specified domain as well as a multidisciplinary area.

Abstract

Since information scientists have begun trying to quantify significant research trends in scientific publications, ‘-metrics’ research such as ‘bibliometrics’, ‘scientometrics’, ‘informetrics’, ‘webometrics’, and ‘citation analysis’ have been identified as crucial areas of information science. To illustrate the dynamic research activities in these areas, this study investigated the major contributors of ‘-metrics’ research for the last decade at three levels: nations, institutions, and documents. ‘-metrics’ literature of this study was obtained from the Science Citation Index for the years 2001-2011. In this analysis, we used Pathfinder network, PNNC algorithm, PageRank and several indicators based on h-index. In terms of international collaborations, USA and England were identified as major countries. At the institutional level, Katholieke University, Leuven and the University of Amsterdam in Europe and Indiana University and the Office of Naval Research in the USA have led co-research projects in informetrics areas. At the document level, Hirsch’s h-index paper and Ingwersen’s web impact factor paper were identified as the most influential work by two methods: PageRank and single paper h-index.

이 연구에서는 국내 문헌정보학 학술지 논문의 사사표기 유형을 파악하고, 유형에 따라 학술지 논문의 계량서지적 특성에 차이가 있는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 분석을 위해서 국내 문헌정보학 분야 대표 학술지 4종에 2013년부터 2021년까지 9년간 게재된 논문 2,143편의 사사표기와 참고문헌, 인용횟수를 데이터로 확보하였다. 전체 논문 중에서 61.2%인 1,311편에 실린 사사표기 1,433건의 내용을 분석하여 유형을 나눈 다음, 각 유형에 해당하는 논문의 계량서지적 특성을 살펴보았다. 사사표기 유형은 크게 ‘윤리(중복게재회피)’와 ‘감사’ 유형으로 양분되었으며, 각각 9가지와 10가지로 세분할 수 있었다. 계량서지적 특성으로 참고문헌 수, 참고문헌의 최신성, 인용도를 살펴본 결과 모든 특성이 사사표기 유형별로 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다.

Abstract

In this study, we aimed to identify the types of acknowledgments in Korean LIS journal articles and to find out whether there are differences in the bibliometric characteristics of journal articles based on the types of acknowledgments. For the analysis, the acknowledgments, references, and citation counts of 2,143 articles published in four representative journals in the field of library and information science in Korea for nine years from 2013 to 2021 were obtained as data. We analyzed the contents of 1,433 acknowledgments in 1,311 articles (61.2% of all articles) to divide them into types and then examined the bibliometric characteristics of each type of article. The acknowledgment types were broadly divided into the ‘ethics’ type (avoiding duplicate publication) and ‘thanks’ type, which were further subdivided into 9 and 10 types, respectively. We examined the number of references, recency of references, and citations as bibliometric characteristics, and found that all of these characteristics differed between the types of acknowledgements.

연구성과평가와 연구비 배분에 인용분석을 포함한 계량정보학적 분석방법이 많이 사용되고 있으며, 부적절한 적용 및 해석에 대한 우려와 지적 또한 계속되고 있다. 이에 따라 최근 연구성과평가 지침과 권고안이 학술 커뮤니티와 계량서지학적 연구집단에서 연이어 발표되고 있다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 2015년 발표된 라이덴 선언(Leiden Manifesto)을 중심으로 Thomson Reuters 백서, 프랑스 과학원 권고안, DORA 선언, IEEE 권고안을 비교하고 이를 통해 국내 연구성과평가 환경에의 제안 가능성을 살펴보고자 하였다. 비교분석 결과, 다수의 권고안은 연구의 목적과 연구 주제분야별 특성을 반영하고 다양한 지표를 활용한 다면적 평가를 통해 총체적인 평가를 지향하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 국내 연구성과평가시스템 적용에서 고려해 볼 주요 권고안이라고 할 수 있으며, 추후 이에 대한 이해관계자들의 의견 수렴 등을 통하여 국내 연구성과시스템에의 적용가능성을 보다 심층적으로 살펴볼 필요가 있을 것이다.

Abstract

Inappropriate applications of bibliometric approach and misinterpretation on the analysis in research evaluation have been found and recognized nationally and internationally as the use of the approach has been rapidly adopted in various sectors in research evaluation systems and research funding agencies. The flood of misuse led to several numbers of declarations and statements on appropriate research evaluation, including Leiden Manifesto, DORA, IEEE Statement, etc. The similar recommendations from five different declarations, Leiden Manifest, IEEE Statement, DORA, Institut de France, and Thomson Reuters White paper were reviewed and meta-analyzed in this study and it is revealed that most of them emphasize evaluation on quality in various aspects with multiple indicators. Research evaluation with assessing multiple aspects of individual research based on the understandings of its purpose and pertinent subject area was revealed as being mostly advised in the declarations, and this recommendation can be regarded as being mostly requested in national research evaluation system. For future study, interviews with relevant stakeholders of national research evaluation system in order to explore its application are needed to confirm the findings of this review.
