이 연구는 저자동시인용분석과 저자서지결합분석을 종합한 학문의 지적 구조 분석 방법론의 유용성을 밝혀 이를 새롭게 제안하고자 하였다. 또한 국내 사회복지학 분야의 전통적인 지적 구조뿐만 아니라 최신의 연구동향 및 최근 활발한 연구 활동을 하는 핵심 연구자를 파악하는 데에 그 목적이 있다. 연구 결과 특정 학문 분야의 지적 구조를 파악하는데 있어 학문의 전통적 하위 주제 영역의 파악이나 실제 연구자들의 연구 경향을 파악하기 위하여 저자동시인용분석뿐만 아니라 저자서지결합분석을 병행하는 것이 보다 효율적인 것으로 나타났다.

Abstract

This study intended to make new suggestions by clarifying usefulness of analysis methodology for the intellectual structure of disciplines, which combines author co-citation analysis and author bibliographic coupling analysis. It also aimed to identify the recent research trend and key researchers recently doing research activities actively as well as the intellectual structure in the field of social welfare. It was found to be more efficient to conduct both author co-citation analysis and author bibliographic coupling analysis in order to identify traditional sub-areas of disciplinary subject or the research trend of actual researchers in examining the intellectual structure of a specific discipline.

본 연구에서는 지구적 환경문제의 해결 방식으로서 환경과학 분야의 학술활동과 같은 학문적 접근 방식과 환경 NGO 중심의 환경운동과 같은 실천적 접근 방식을 두 가지 주요 흐름이라 보고, 이들 각각의 특성을 계량정보학적 분석을 통해 파악하고 비교하였다. 지난 10년 간 환경과학 분야에서 인용된 저널의 주제범주 간 동시인용 관계를 분석함으로써 이 분야의 지식 구조를 파악하였고, 환경 NGO의 웹 사이트에서 수집된 외부링크 데이터를 이용하여 이들의 관심 분야를 확인하였다. 또한 저널 논문과 NGO 뉴스에서 추출된 핵심어를 이용한 동시출현단어 분석을 통해 하위 주제를 파악하여 이들 간의 주제적 유사성과 상이성을 구체화하였다.

Abstract

This study aims to understand and compare the characteristics of two major approaches to solving global environmental problems-an academic approach including scholarly activities of environmental sciences and a practical approach of environmental movements led by NGOs-by employing informetric analysis methods. Knowledge structure of environmental sciences is depicted through co-citation networks of subject categories assigned to the cited journals in the discipline of environmental sciences for the 10-year period from 2000 to 2009. Furthermore, major interests of environmental NGOs are identified on the basis of external link data collected from web sites of the NGOs. Co-word analyses are also performed using the texts of journal papers in environmental sciences as well as news articles provided by NGO sites. Through the analyses, dominant subject areas of environmental sciences and environmental movements are identified demonstrating similarities and differences between the two approaches.

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.

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.

이 논문에서는 학술지 인용 데이터와 웹 링크 데이터를 이용하여 8개 과학기술 분야의 학제적 구조를 파악하고 각 학문분야 간 학제성을 비교하였다. 분석 대상이 되는 학술지와 웹 페이지의 주제적 성격을 파악하기 위해 기존의 과학기술 분류체계를 재구성하여 이용하였다. 이 연구에서 학제성은 여러 학문분야 간 학제적 연결의 측면에서 파악하였으며, 학제성의 정도는 연관 학문분야의 수로 측정한 학제적 다양성과 자기인용률에 의해 평가하였다. 분석 결과 학술지 인용 분석에서는 밝혀내지 못한 새로운 학제적 연결을 웹 링크 분석에 의해 파악하였으며, 이를 통해 웹 링크 분석이 학제성을 연구하는 수단으로서 유용함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 인용 분석과 링크 분석에서 모두 자연과학 분야에 비해 공학 분야의 학제성이 대체로 더 높게 나타났다.

Abstract

This study identifies the interdisciplinary structures of 8 scientific disciplines in science and technology using the data from journal citations and web links, and compares the interdisciplinarity among these scientific disciplines. The interdisciplinarity refers to interdisciplinary connections among scientific fields and the degree of interdisciplinarity is measured by the number of associated fields and the rate of self-citation. A re-arranged classification scheme for science and technology was adopted to identify subject categories of journals and web pages. Web link analysis revealed a few additional interdisciplinary connections that were not identified by the journal citation analysis, thus demonstrating that it is useful means of investigating the interdisciplinarity of scientific fields. Besides, in most of the cases the interdisciplinarity of the engineering fields were found greater than that of the fields in natural sciences in both analyses.

Abstract

As co-authorship has been prevalent within science communities, counting the credit of co-authors appropriately is an important consideration, particularly in the context of identifying the knowledge structure of fields with author-based analysis. The purpose of this study is to compare the characteristics of co-author credit counting methods by utilizing correlations, multidimensional scaling, and pathfinder networks. To achieve this purpose, this study analyzed a dataset of 2,014 journal articles and 3,892 cited authors from the Journal of the Architectural Institute of Korea: Planning & Design from 2003 to 2008 in the field of Architecture in Korea. In this study, six different methods of crediting co-authors are selected for comparative analyses. These methods are first-author counting (m1), straight full counting (m2), and fractional counting (m3), proportional counting with a total score of 1 (m4), proportional counting with a total score between 1 and 2 (m5), and first-author-weighted fractional counting (m6). As shown in the data analysis, m1 and m2 are found as extreme opposites, since m1 counts only first authors and m2 assigns all co-authors equally with a credit score of 1. With correlation and multidimensional scaling analyses, among five counting methods (from m2 to m6), a group of counting methods including m3, m4, and m5 are found to be relatively similar. When the knowledge structure is visualized with pathfinder network, the knowledge structure networks from different counting methods are differently presented due to the connections of individual links. In addition, the internal validity shows that first-author-weighted fractional counting (m6) might be considered a better method to author clustering. Findings demonstrate that different co-author counting methods influence the network results of knowledge structure and a better counting method is revealed for author clustering.

학문과 기술의 발달이 전개되면서 학문 간의 융합이 이루어지고 학제적 성향을 띠는 학문이 더욱 등장하게 되었다. 현재까지 계량정보학적 방법으로 학문 분야의 지적구조를 파악한 연구는 있었지만 학제적인 학문의 특성을 규명하여 지적구조를 분석한 시도는 적었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 학제성을 띠는 의료정보학(Medical Informatics) 분야의 저널 중 IEEE ENG MED BIOL 저널을 선정하여 저자동시인용 분석과 동시출현단어 분석을 통해 본 저널의 지적구조를 파악하였다. 또한 상위 3개 대표 저널의 저자 및 MeSH Term을 추출하여 종합적으로 비교분석하였다. 이를 통해 의료정보학 분야의 융합된 학문들의 관계를 구조적으로 파악하고 의료정보학의 학문적 성향을 분석했다.

Abstract

Due to the development of science and technology, the convergence of various disciplines has been fostered. Accordingly, interdisciplinary studies have increasingly been expanded by integrating knowledge and methodology from different disciplines. The primary focus of biblimetric methods is on investigating the intellectual structure a field, and analysis of the characterization of interdisciplinary studies is overlooked. In this study, we aim to identify the intellectual structure of the field of medical informatics through author co-citation analysis and co-word analysis by the representative journal “IEEE ENG MED BIOL.” In addition, we examine authors and MeSH Terms of top three representative journals for further analysis of the field. We examine the intellectual structure of the medical informatics field by author and word clusters to identify the network structure of medical informatics disciplines.
