Abstract

Electronic publishing has influenced, and in some ways changed, information seeking, reading patterns and citation behaviours. This study collected the Cited Half-Lives, the indicator implies the life-span of scholarly journals, from JCR Social Science edition the before and after of the prevalence of electronic journals, and observed if there are some changes in these two periods. The analysis results of eight disciplines show that the average Cited Half-Lives increased in 2007 than in 1994 for seven disciplines except the demography. Especially in the four disciplines of economics, education, finance and sociology, the average Cited Half-Lives increased significantly. This results show that the concentration, researchers cite more recent articles and concentrate their citations on fewer ones, is lightening and the dispersion of citations is actually increasing. With the online availability of articles and journals the old online materials can be often accessed, used and cited more frequently, the more growth potential of Cited Half-Lives are made in a digital environment. Further research needs to investigate if the phenomenon will become more obvious in various disciplines after a few years.

대학소속 연구자들의 연구 분야가 다변화되면서 대학도서관에서는 서비스 운영을 위하여 학과별 주제 분야를 파악하는 것이 중요한 과제로 인식되고 있다. 이 연구는 대학 학과 소속구성원들의 학술지 논문 서지사항을 분석하여 학과별 주제특성을 다차원적으로 분석하고자 하였다. 게재한 학술논문을 분석하여 1차적으로 해당 학과의 주제영역을 파악하고자 하였으며 심층적으로 주제영역을 분석하기 위하여 해당 논문들이 인용한 학술지를 조사하여 확장된 주제영역을 조사하였다. 또한 상위 인용된 학술지를 대상으로 네트워크 분석을 하여 학술지간 관계를 분석하였다. 분석 결과 학과별 주제 분야별 학술지 이용현황에 차이가 있는 것으로 조사되었으며 특정 주제 분야의 경우 학술지 종수와 논문 수에 따라 주제 분야의 중요도가 비례하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 특정분야의 경우 소수의 학술지에서 많은 논문이 인용되고 있는 현상이 있으며 게재하는 주제 분야와 인용하는 주제 분야의 중요도가 일치하지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

Abstract

As topics of researchers become diverse horizontally or vertically, academic libraries have difficulties to identify the dynamic change of researchers' needs for academic publications. This research aims to illustrate the topic areas of researchers in a department of university by analyzing bibliographies of their publications. First, researchers' publications were used to discover the topic areas where the researchers had published. Second, the cited publications in those papers were analysed to identify the expanded topic areas of these researchers. Finally, highly cited journals were analyzed by network analysis method. The major finding is that the importance of topic areas by the number of journals was not necessarily proportional to that by the number of papers. Researchers have a tendency to use many papers in a small number of journals in a certain topic area. Furthermore, the importance of topic areas discovered by researchers' publications was not the same as that discovered by researchers' citations.

Abstract

A large and reliable citation database is necessary to identify and analyze citation behavior of Korean researchers in science and technology. Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information (KISTI) built the Korea Science Citation Database (KSCD), and have provided Korea Science Citation Index (KSCI) and Korea Journal Citation Reports (KJCR) services. In this article, citing behavior of Korean scientists on Korean journals was examined by using the KSCD that covers 459 Korean core journals. This research dealt with (1) statistical numeric information of journals in KSCD, (2) analysis of document types cited, (3) ratio of domestic to international documents cited and ratio of citing different disciplines, (4) analysis on immediacy index, peak time, and half-life of cited documents, and (5) analysis on impact of journals based on KJCR citation indicators. From this research, we could find the immediacy citation rate (average 2.36%), peak-time (average 1.7 years) and half-life (average 5.2 years) of cited journals in Korea. We also found that the average journal self-citation rate is more than 50% in every field. In sum, citing behavior of Korean scientists on Korean journals was comprehensively identified from this research.

이 연구의 목적은 연구소프트웨어의 공유, 재사용, 인용 현황을 분석하는 것이다. 학술커뮤니케이션에서 연구소프트웨어는 최근 들어 더욱 중요한 역할을 하고 있다. 현재 연구소프트웨어의 인용이 일반적인 관행이 아니거나, 적어도 데이터인용색인(DCI)이 연구소프트웨어의 인용과 재사용을 제대로 인덱싱하지 못하는 것으로 관찰되었다. 소프트웨어인용은 주요 레포지토리(prominent repositories)에서 발견되었다. 소프트웨어인용이 많은 레포지토리는 CRAN(Comprehensive R Archive Network)과 Zenodo였다. 연구소프트웨어가 재사용되는 경우, 비공식 소프트웨어인용(informal software citation)과 공식 소프트웨어인용(formal software citation)이 동시에 관찰되었다. 비공식 소프트웨어인용은 연구소프트웨어가 논문의 본문에서는 언급되지만 참고문헌에는 없는 경우였고, 공식 소프트웨어인용은 참고문헌에도 있는 경우였다. 또한, 이 연구의 결과는 연구소프트웨어의 자기 인용(self-citation) 현황을 설명했다.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to explore the phenomenon of the sharing, reuse, and citation of research software. These practices are playing an increasingly important role in scholarly communication. The researchers found that the citation and reuse of research software are currently uncommon or at least not reflected in the Data Citation Index (DCI). Such citation was observed, however, for the newer software in a number of prominent repositories. The repositories Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN) and Zenodo received the most formal software citations. The researchers observed both formal and informal forms of citation when researchers reused software. The latter form involves mentioning research software in passing in the main text of articles, while formal citations appear in the references section. In addition, our comparative analysis helps to explain the phenomenon of self-citation of research software.

Abstract

In this study, pathfinder network analysis has been carried out to identify subject domains of documents which cited articles in the ASIST Proceedings. This represents how articles in the ASIST Proceedings are flowed and used in what subjects areas. For this analysis, 240 documents were selected through a search of the Scopus database. The complete linkage clustering method was used to draw out 16 clusters from 240 documents. Through MDS and pathfinder network analysis, knowledge networks of clusters have been produced. As a result, articles in the ASIST Proceedings relating to knowledge management, bibliometrics, information retrieval and digital libraries have been cited actively by other publications. The most frequent citation flow type of ASIST proceedings was citation from proceedings(ASIST) to reviews(ARIST), via journals, and the most popular subject areas related to documents were bibliometrics.

본 연구의 목적은 인용문헌에 나타난 웹 자원의 접근성과 그 변화추이를 분석하여 인용문헌에 수록된 웹 정보원의 가치와 유용성을 평가하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위하여 정보관리학회지에 수록된 웹 자원 1,377건을 추출하여 국내, 국외별 웹 자원의 접근성과 도메인과 파일유형의 웹 자원 접근성 및 접근성 변화추이를 분석하였다. 그 결과 국내 웹 자원은 접근성비율이 40%, 국외 웹 자원은 50%, 도메인 유형은 58%, 파일 유형은 44%로 각각 조사되었다. 또한 인용시간 경과에 따른 웹 자원의 접근성은 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 인용된지 1년 정도가 되면 웹 자원의 23%정도가 접근할 수 없는 것으로 밝혀져 웹 자원의 유용성은 매우 낮은 것으로 평가되었다.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the accessibility of web resources contained in the references section of journal articles. I was identified a total of 1,377 web citations for a major journal in information science over a ten year period. The results show that the accessible ratio of domestic web resources was at 40% and the ratio of foreign web resources about 50%. The accessible ratio of domain type web resources was shown 58% while the same ratio for file type web resources was 45%. This low accessibility of we resources in references poses threat to the overall value of journal articles.

Abstract

This study aims at proposing three prestige indices—closeness prestige, input domain, and proximity prestige- as useful measures for the impact of a particular node in citation networks. It compares these prestige indices with other impact indices as it is still unknown what dimensions of impact these indices actually measure. The prestige indices enable us to distinguish the most prominent actors in a directed network, similar to the centrality indices in undirected networks. Correlation analysis and principal component analysis were conducted on the author citation network to identify the differentiated implications of the three prestige indices from the existing impact indices. We selected simple citation counting, h-index, PageRank, and the three kinds of centrality indices which assume undirected networks as the existing impact measures for comparison with the three prestige indices. The results indicate that these prestige indices demonstrate distinct impact dimension from the other impact indices. The prestige indices reflect indirect impact while the others direct impact.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the usability and the value of Web resources as an academic information in writing a paper by citation analysis. In this study each articles from five academic journals in the field of LIS and computers, published from 1999 to 2000, was selected for citation analysis. The result shows that articles in Journal of the Korean Society for Information Management cited the most, and Korea Information Processing Society Review the least, in terms of average number of citing Web resources. In respect of citing rate of Web resources Communications of the Korea Information Science Society was high to 22% of all cited documents, and Journal of the Korean Society for Information Management was the second as high as 18.5%. Articles from selected journals have been increased in citing Web resources form 1999 to 2002. However, Korea Information Processing Society Review appears to be decreased, instead.

본 연구는 약물 연구 분야에 속하는 특허 사이에 나타나는 지식의 흐름을 살펴보고 이들 간의 영향력을 파악해보기 위해 특허데이터에서 나타나는 인용 관계를 분석하였다. 특허데이터의 수집은 Google Patents에서 진행하였다. 약물 연구와 관련된 특허 문서를 검색하여 상위 25개의 출원인을 선정하였고, 이를 바탕으로 출원인 사이에서의 인용 관계를 알아보고 각 출원인의 각 문서에 대한 피인용빈도와 순위를 활용하여 h-지수와 h-지수의 파생지표들의 값을 계산하여 비교하였다. 분석 결과를 종합하면, ‘Pfizer, MIT, Abbott’ 등의 출원인이 약물 연구 분야에서 영향력이 높은 출원인으로 드러났다. 5개의 계량서지학적 지표 중에서 g-지수와 hS-지수가 서로 유사한 결과를 보여주었고, 총인용빈도, 최대인용빈도, CPP의 순위를 가장 잘 반영하는 지표로 나타났다. 또한, 총인용빈도, CPP, 최대인용빈도 순으로 5개의 계량서지학적 지표와의 상관관계가 높았다. 한편, 기존의 특허 출원인의 기술적 영향력을 나타내는 것으로 알려진 지표인 CPP만으로는 정확한 비교가 어려운 경우도 나타났다.

Abstract

This study analyzes the relationship of citations appearing in the patent data to understand knowledge transfers and impacts between patent documents in the field of pharmaceutical research. Patent data were collected from a website, Google Patents. The top 25 assignees were selected by searching for patent documents related to pharmaceutical research. We identify the citation relationships between assignees, then calculate and compare the values of h-index and derived indicators by using the number of citations and rank for each document of each assignee. As a result, in the case of pharmaceutical research, the assignee, such as ‘Pfizer, MIT, and Abbott’ shows a high impact. Among the five bibliometric indicators, the g-index and hS-index show similar results, and the indicators are the most related to the rankings of Total Citation Frequency, Cites per Patents, and Maximum Citation Frequency. In addition, it is highly related to the five indicators in the order of Total Citation Frequency, Cites per Patents, and Maximum Citation Frequency. In some cases, it is difficult to make an accurate comparison with Cites per Patents alone, which is previously known to indicate the technological influence of patent assignees.
