If interested, please contact Sigrid Kelsey at sigridkelsey at gmail. -- SB _______________________________________________________________________________________________ Call for Chapters for the Handbook of Research on Computer Mediated Communication Editor: Sigrid Kelsey, MLIS Louisiana State University Introduction: Technology has changed communication drastically in recent years. Podcasts, Email, the World Wide Web, Blackberries, cell phones, text messaging, wireless connections, and other forms of computer mediated communication (CMC) have transformed communication in numerous ways, not only facilitating the speed and sometimes ease of communicating, but redefining and shaping today's communication norms. The Handbook of Research on Computer Mediated Communication will provide comprehensive coverage of the most important current issues, trends, and technologies related to professional computer mediated communication. Coverage: The Handbook of Research on Computer Mediated Communication will feature chapters (5000-7000 words) of a scholarly nature, written by experts offering in-depth descriptions of concepts, issues, and trends in various areas of CMC. The purpose of this handbook is to provide academic articles written in a more non-academic style, in the sense that each article should focus on a specific topic -- rather than a general treatment of CMC -- keeping in mind a readership with a varied background. This will allow scholarly ideas to be accessible to a wide range of readers. This book will explore various forms of CMC chapter by chapter and discuss the broad implications that each medium is having on communication. Recommended topics include, but are not limited to: - Email - Web Sites, web pages - Blackberries - Podcasts, RSS - Chatrooms - Instant messaging - Text messaging - Cell phones - Corporate blogging (may mention implications of personal blogging in the workplace) - Digital divide - File sharing, peer to peer networking - Online forums - Computer mediated collaboration - Wikis - Historical aspects of CMC - Effects of CMC on research participation - Web Design and visual CMC Submission Procedure: Individuals interested in submitting chapters should submit a chapter proposal of one single-spaced page on or before September 30, 2006 to Sigrid Kelsey at sigridkelsey at gmail.com (Rich Text Format or Microsoft Word is acceptable). The proposal should include the purpose and content of the proposed chapter and how the proposed chapter relates to the overall objectives of the book. Upon acceptance of their proposals, authors will have until December 31, 2006, to prepare their chapters of 5000-7000 words. Guidelines for preparing chapters will be sent upon acceptance of proposals. This book is tentatively scheduled for publishing by Idea Group Reference (an imprint of Idea Group Inc.), www.idea-group-ref.com, in 2008.

Morris, Ph.D. > Professor and Chairperson > Department of Applied Behavioral Science > University of Kansas Dear Edward, I know of no published criticism of Skinner's citation practices, and am aware only of the well-known anecdote, perhaps an urban myth, that Skinner himself had once said something to the effect that the only one he reads (hence, presumably, cites) is himself. It seems to me the only objective way to test this is to recover the citations from the literature of his day, check both the citations of and the citations by Skinner's work (both journal articles and books) and to try to construct a comparable control group of authors in Psychology at the time, to compare with. One could perhaps do this via co-citations -- finding authors who are co-cited with Skinner and are themselves cited at a comparable level (or, failing that, simply other authors in the same or comparable areas of Psychology who are cited at a comparable level). If it turns out that comparably cited (hence comaparbly impactful and influential) authors cite others significantly more and/or themselves less, then there is something to the urban myth. If Skinner proves unique in his stature at the time, however, having no reference population to serve as a baseline, then -- unless we are prepared to reach, in desperation, for comparisons in other fields so far-flung as to cast doubt on comparability -- I am afraid the question may have to remain moot. My own teacher, Hebb, I know, read and cited very diversely, and was a contemporary of Skinner's. ISI's Web of Science probably does not stretch back far enough; Google Scholar might possibly give an approximation. But perhaps only APA's Psych Abstracts backfiles, *if* they kept the cited-reference metadata, offer a hope of a quick answer. Otherwise I'm afraid it's down to hand-sampling the literature!

Research in entrepreneurship has grown rapidly, encompassing multiple theoretical and methodological traditions. Articles in this issue use bibliometric techniques to find linkages among published entrepreneurship scholars. These analyses show that research in the entrepreneurship field contains: multiple but disconnected themes; dominant themes that reflect the disciplinary training and lens of their authors; and considerable dynamism and change in key research themes over time. These special issue articles provide rich opportunities for identifying insightful, influential, and creative research niches in the entrepreneurship field.

Skinner's comparative auto- and allo-citation record Message-ID: There are 159 papers by BF Skinner listed in WOS going back to 1930. Analysis of the papers he cited should give you a very large sample of the people he cited in his journal works. The easiest way to do this is to use HistCite software which will organize his cited references in an easy to use list. Further if you want to go even further with an examination of the papers citing Skinner that is also possible but a big job considering how often he is cited. Here are the top ten most cited of his WOS listed papers to give you some idea. I am sure that if you go into the cited reference section of WOS you will find even more cites to non-WOS material. If you want to use HistCite just get in touch with me.

But perhaps only APA's Psych Abstracts backfiles, *if* they kept the cited-reference metadata, offer a hope of a quick answer. Otherwise I'm afraid it's down to hand-sampling the literature!

Eight years ago using Dialog access to SSCI, I was able to identify which countries were most frequently represented in the literature of Library & Information Science. I did this by: * Using JCR - identify the top 10 journal titles in the category called "Library & Information Science" * Using SSCI - identify the "Geographic Location" (particular field in each record) for each article - according to SSCI this corresponded to the primary author's self-reported country In trying to replicate this search now I encounter two problems: 1. JCR doesn't seem to have a category called "Library & Information Science" anymore. Am I just missing this? I'm not sure how to identify this collection of journals - except through my own subjective selection of titles 2. Using SSCI through Web of Science - I am unable to see the "CO" (Country of Origin - seems to have replaced Geographic Location) field in the full record. I know in the advanced search, there is an option to limit to particular countries - but I want to be able to display the CO field for a list of records - just as you would view the author or source field for each record. Does anyone on the list have an answer/insight to either of these issues?

That's even harder to track down, but soon it will be possible to track both: There will be "endogamy/exogamy" indices for articles, authors and journals, reflecting the degree to which their citation impact comes from (1) self-citations, (2) citations to and from the same circle of authors or co-authors, (3) citations to and from the same journal, or small closed circle of journals, and (4) how this compares with the pattern for other comparable authors, papers and journals, equated as much as possible for subject matter and citation level.

From David.Watkins at SOLENT.AC.UK Mon Jul 10 05:47:07 2006 From: David.Watkins at SOLENT.AC.UK (David Watkins) Date: Mon, 10 Jul 2006 10:47:07 +0100 Subject: SIGMETRICS Digest - 7 Jul 2006 to 8 Jul 2006 (#2006-99) Message-ID: Journal Self-Citation etc.... Academics are human beings; science is a social activity. There does not need to be overt pressure to increase rates of self citation over a hypothetical 'natural' level. Authors know that editors like to see their journal 'used', and it is natural that any one paper will build on similar work that is published in similar journals. Given an a choice to cite work, even by the same author(s), in journal A or journal B in the literature survey, which very often happens, a sensible new author will cite the work in jA if s/he is submitting there, or vice versa. The situation is compounded by the refereeing system. What assiduous author does not try to identify potential referees - often members of the target journal's Editorial Board - and ensure their work is cited, even if it is actually marginal? This is a habit instilled at doctoral level: "for goodness sake cite the intended external's work, and do so in a favourable light....!" Even it this attempt to subvert the system fails, who has not experienced the comment from an 'anonymous' referee, that the work of Dr X is under-acknowledged, with copious examples, when it is clear to all that Dr X is the refereee...? S/he is probably on the Editorial Board...so yet more journal self-citations are added during the revison process. Probably, since some authors 'work their way down' a ranked list of journals until they get acceptance, initial decisions on who and what to cite therefore also generate an enhanced 'Mathew Effect' which is imprinted in the paper even when it is published lower down the pecking order - although I've also known authors add and subtract citations during this process (for the reasons above) without altering the paper itself in any substantive way. Not sure Open Access (a good idea suis generis) will impact this in any way. But almost certainly new biases will be introduced. If the rules of the game change, players respond (Vide UK RAE etc.....)

I repeat only that an Open Access database, containing all citations to and from an article, author, and journal (not just the ISI subset) will make it possible to calculate baselines for self- citation, by field or subfield, and to compare and rank individual papers, authors and journals relative to their respective ("endogamy/ exogamy") baselines. Egregious cases can be detected and named-and- shamed. It seems to me that this introduces a form of openness and answerability that the more partial/proprietary citation counts until now did not allow, and that it will serve to expose and minimize biasses. (Similarly, full-text overlap indices of various kinds will be derivable to compare with norms and baselines for the detection of plagiarism as well as legitimate lineage.) It seems to me it is highly unlikely that Open Access will fail to have a profound effect on these variables and practises. I would also like to offer a conjecture: For every new means of abuse that the Web breeds (download agents to pad download counts; padded link counts, etc.), it will soon thereafter breed a new means of countering the abuse (rather like the endless cartoon series of spy- vs-spy ploys in Mad Magazine a few decades ago).

First, author co-citation analysis establishes a collective view of the structure of the entrepreneurship literature as perceived by its research-active members. The co-citation frequencies of 78 prominent entrepreneurship researchers were analyzed using multivariate techniques. Cluster analysis and multidimensional scaling were used to explore the intellectual structure of entrepreneurship research by identifying groups of scholars whose work falls into similar areas. Factor analysis was then used to identify the underlying themes that characterize and define the field. Finally, the scholars within these nominal groupings were approached using individualized questionnaires to explore what social interactions might parallel, reflect, or underpin the intellectual ones. The study has given empirical support to a number of oft-quoted beliefs about entrepreneurship as a field of study, such as: (1) the occurrence of fragmentation from an early stage in its development; (2) that the difficulty of categorizing subfields unambiguously mirrors that in the metafield itself; (3) that there is a relative paucity of scholarship cited across-as opposed to within-these subfields; and (4) that there is evolution within the meta-field of national differences in the topics studied and citation patterns thereto. In addition, the study demonstrates that there are real and robust social and collaborative networks underlying the generation of the work which is cited jointly by third parties. The latter authors may be unaware of these networks. Equally, the co-cited authors, while recognizing overlapping interests, may have difficulty in categorizing this commonality in their contributions. Entrepreneurship research is shown to be very much a social activity, although this may be invisible to outsiders or novitiates.

Hantula : hantula at temple.edu Title: The impact of JOBM: ISI impact factor places the Journal of Organizational Behavior Management third in applied psychology Author(s): Hantula DA Source: JOURNAL OF ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR MANAGEMENT 25 (3): 1-15 2005 Document Type: Article Language: English Cited References: 34 Times Cited: 0 Abstract: The ISI Impact Factor for JOBM is 1.793, placing it third in the JCR rankings for Journals in applied psychology with a sharply accelerating linear trend over the past 5 years. This article reviews the Impact Factor and raises questions regarding its reliability and validity and then considers a citation analysis of JOBM in light of the culture of the Organizational Behavior Management community. It appears that the rise in impact may be attributable to increases in quality, the journal filling a previously unfilled niche and a more theoretical turn in OBM scholarship, and that the Impact Factor underestimates JOBM's influence. JOBM is not a high quality journal because it has a high Impact Factor; rather JOBM currently has a high Impact Factor because it is a high quality journal.

Results highlight the extent to which scientific positions can help to explain the emergence of some countries as new participants in the wine industry and established countries as old participants defending their positions. We also examined the extent to which the scientific wine community is in itself becoming increasingly more global through international co-publications. Results suggest that geographical trends in the scientific wine community are only partly related to the shifts in globalization patterns in the wine industry.

Hence it generalizes the so-called 80/20-rule to general fractions. In this paper we examine the relation of such Lorenz curves with the size of the system (expressed by the total number of sources). We prove that the height of such a Lorenz curve is an increasing function of the total number of sources. In other words, we show that the share of items as a function of the corresponding share of sources increases with increasing size of the system. This conclusion is opposite (but not in contradiction) to a conclusion of Aksnes and Sivertsen (studied in an earlier paper of Egghe) but where "share of sources" is replaced by "number of sources".

online status on the impact factors of general internal medicine journals Author(s): Mueller PS, Murali NS, Cha SS, Erwin PJ, Ghosh AK Source: NETHERLANDS JOURNAL OF MEDICINE 64 (2): 39-44 FEB 2006 Document Type: Article Language: English Cited References: 23 Times Cited: 0 Abstract: Background: We sought to determine the effects of becoming available online on impact factors of general medicine journals. Methods: Through MEDLINE with an institutional subscription, the 2004 online status of "Medicine, General and Internal" journals listed in the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) journal Citation Reports (JCR) was classified as full text on the Net (FUTON), abstract only, or no abstract available (NAA)/unavailable in MEDLINE. Similarly, through use of a home computer without an institutional subscription, the 2004 online status of the same journals was determined. For each journal, impact factors for 1992 to 2003 were obtained. Results: Of the 102 "Medicine, General and Internal" journals listed in the ISI JCR, 71 (70%) existed in both pre-Internet (1992) and Internet (2003) eras. Of these 71 journals, those available as FUTON in 2004 had higher median impact factors than non-FUTON journals in 1992 (p < 0.0001) and 2003 (p < 0.0001). journals that became available online, at least partially, had significant increases in median impact factors from 1992 to 2003 (p < 0.0001 for journals that became available as FUTON and for journals that provided an abstract only). However, journals that became available as FUTON had a greater increase in median impact factor from 1992 to 2003 than other journals (p=0.002). Similar results were obtained using impact factor data according to journal online status through use of a home computer without an institutional subscription and for English-language journals only. Conclusion: Becoming available online as FUTON is associated with a significant increase in journal impact factor.

The authors briefly summarize its history, its contributions to the study of aging, and its broader status as a scholarly publication. One theme highlighted in our review is the diversity of content in the journal throughout its history. Another is the strong impact that articles published in the journal have had on both basic and applied topics in aging. Efforts to encompass the breadth of topics and methodologies in aging research while retaining excellent quality remain the exciting but essential challenge for Psychology and Aging.

Jaffe and Manuel Trajtenberg. The book is now four years old, but there is an excellent review by Frank Cowell of the London School of economics in the journal of Economic Literature, v.42, p.1158, June 2004 in which he states "As the authors persuasively establish, the number of times a patent is cited in future patents can be an extremely useful indicator of its technological significance." Their work builds on the earlier work of Jacob Schmookler (1966) and Zvi Griliches "who inspired an entire school of researchers to push the investigation further by making creative use of patent records in conjunction with other data, and by developing new methods of measurement and analysis. Despite all of the insight that can b gleaned from patent statistics., however, both admirers and skeptics are fully cognizant of the limitations associated with implicitly treating all patented inventions as if they were equal." -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Entrepreneurship research is seen as fragmented and its results are considered noncumulative, handicapping the evolution of the field as a respected scholarly discipline. In this article we conduct a bibliometric analysis to shed light on these issues. We analyze co-citation patterns of entrepreneurship-related articles published in the years 2000 to 2004 and identify the 25 most central research streams in entrepreneurship. We describe these groups and investigate their mutual relationships. Although the United States represents by far the greatest source of entrepreneurship articles, other countries represent significant sources of research in specific streams.

Researchers are beginning to develop applications capable of using these repositories to assist the scientific community above and beyond the pure dissemination of information. The contributions set forth by this paper emphasize a deconstructed publication model in which the peer-review process is mediated by an Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH) peer-review service. This peer-review service uses a social- network algorithm to determine potential reviewers for a submitted manuscript and for weighting the influence of each participating reviewer's evaluations. This paper also suggests a set of peer-review specific metadata tags that can accompany a pre-print's existing metadata record. The combinations of these contributions provide a unique repository-centric peer-review model that fits within the widely deployed OAI-PMH framework.

The highly skewed frequency distribution of citations of published scientific papers suggests a relatively small number of active, cited papers embedded in a sea of inactive and uncited papers. We propose an analytically soluble model which allows for the death of nodes. This model provides an excellent description of the citation distributions for live and dead papers in the SPIRES database. Further, this model suggests a novel and general mechanism for the generation of power law distributions in networks whenever the fraction of active nodes is small.

They found that , although the evidence of human studies published in anaesthesia journals was high, there was no correlation between the evidence-based medicine level of publication in an anaesthesia journal and the impact factor of that journal. This suggests that the impact factor does not reflect a journal?s quality if evidence-based medicine is considered to be a measure of scientific quality. However, these two studies were limited by the use of publications from a six-month (in 2000) or one-year period (in 2003). The impact factor is therefore a useful measure of the quality of scientific journals, but on its own provides a very limited idea on the extent to which the papers are useful for clinical relevance and daily practice. Alternative bibliometric measures (such as citation half life, the total number of citations, ?electronic hit data?) should also be considered. More attention should be given to the clinical relevance and social impact of research in all medical journals. Measuring something as subjective as the quality of the written word is as fraught with dangers as attempting to measure beauty.?

Examination of articles published in six core economics journals in 1990 found that articles authored by those with such connections, especially service on the publishing journal's editorial board, are statistically and numerically of higher quality than articles by those without such connections. In addition, this quality difference does not decrease over time.

The world was divided into 9 regions [United States of America (the U. S.), Western Europe, Japan, Canada, Asia, Oceania, Latin America, and the Caribbean, Eastern Europe, and Africa] based on a combination of geographic, economic and scientific criteria. The number of articles published by each region, the mean impact factor, and the product of the above two parameters were our main indicators. The above numbers were also adjusted for population size, gross national income per capita of each region, and other factors. Articles published from the U. S. made up about two-thirds of all scientific papers published in the top 50 biomedical journals between 1995 and 2002. Western Europe contributed approximately a quarter of the published papers while the remaining one-tenth of articles came from the rest of the world. Canada, however, ranked second when number of articles was adjusted for population size. The U. S. is by far the highest-ranking country/region in publications in the top 50 biomedical journals even after adjusting for population size, gross national product, and other factors. Canada and Western Europe share the second place while the rest of the world is far behind. Soteriades, E. S., Rosmarakis, E. S., Paraschakis, K., Falagas, M. E.

We take account of individual and collective determinants to explain individual productivity in terms of intensity and quality. We find that individual variables related to the position occupied are significant. The size of the lab plays negatively on performance. The intensity and quality of colleagues' research activities in labs are beneficial for individual research. Public contractual funding is the only type of funding which affects research intensity. Individual research production figures are significantly enhanced by the presence of foreign post-docs. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

A Swedish study in which 110 scientific journalists were asked to specify their main indicators of professional quality found that sources or information were ranked third, after respect for facts and a sense of professional responsibility. Scientific reporting could be improved by extending to information sources the concepts of the new ?precision journalism?, an approach that holds that scientific methods should be extrapolated to journalism.

No. 026132 Part 2, AUG 2005 Document Type: Article Language: English Cited References: 27 Times Cited: 1 Abstract: Although the inference of global community structure in networks has recently become a topic of great interest in the physics community, all such algorithms require that the graph be completely known. Here, we define both a measure of local community structure and an algorithm that infers the hierarchy of communities that enclose a given vertex by exploring the graph one vertex at a time. This algorithm runs in time O(k(2)d) for general graphs when d is the mean degree and k is the number of vertices to be explored. For graphs where exploring a new vertex is time consuming, the running time is linear, O(k). We show that on computer-generated graphs the average behavior of this technique approximates that of algorithms that require global knowledge. As an application, we use this algorithm to extract meaningful local clustering information in the large recommender network of an online retailer.

Typical applications are the commodities' markets, investment fields or labour markets. Search theory can replace the model of frictionless transactions between purchasers and suppliers and the statement of equilibrium prices. The quest for trade alternatives becomes a fundamental feature on markets if economic decisions have to be made in a climate of uncertainty and without full information. Despite this demand, search theory has not developed so dynamically as comparable theories. This review article defines the potential of search theory in economics, indicates its chronological development and sheds light on some apathy towards search theory. The evaluation is based both on qualitative and quantitative assessments using bibliometric data to measure the research output in time series.

Design: Consecutive sample of all papers in MEDLINE identified by standard medical subject headings for selected types of AT from 1963-2003. Main Outcome Measures: Number of journals carrying AT papers, papers per journal (both total number and those specific to AT), journal impact factor, circulation, and number of AT citations per year over time for each area of AT. Results: We present search terms, estimates of the numbers of AT citations in MEDLINE, the journals most likely to contain articles related to AT, journal impact factors, and journal circulations (when available). We also present the number of citations in various areas of AT over time from 1963-2003. Suggestions are presented for possible future modifications of the MEDLINE controlled vocabulary, based on terminology used in existing AT classifications schemes, such as ISO 9999. Conclusion: Research papers in the areas of AT examined showed publication across a wide variety of journals. There are a number of journals publishing articles in AT that have impact factors above the median. Some areas of AT have shown an increase in publications per year over time, while others have shown a more constant level of productivity.

This study analyses journals that changed their title in 1994 and 1995 and ascertains the period of time taken to recover the impact factor. Effects of subject classification and of the size of the journal are also investigated to see if recovery time depends on them. The analysis shows that recovery times are longer than predicted. Suggestions are made on how publishers may approach communication of journal title changes to minimize the effects on the impact factor.

Claxton : E-mail Addresses: claxton.larry at epa.gov Title: Scientific authorship Part 1. A window into scientific fraud? Author(s): Claxton LD Source: MUTATION RESEARCH-REVIEWS IN MUTATION RESEARCH 589 (1): 17-30 JAN 2005 Document Type: Review Language: English Cited References: 101 Times Cited: 6 Abstract: The examination of a single scientific manuscript seldom alerts scientists, reviewers, editors, and scientific administrators to the fabrication and falsification of data and information. This review shows that most documented cases of scientific fraud involve falsification (altering truthful information) and fabrication (inventing information where none previously existed). Plagiarism is much less frequent. The review of published accounts also shows that the publication of scientific papers containing recognizable fraudulent material is very low, probably less than 0.02% and extremely difficult to detect. Because most reported cases of fraud have involved research done at prestigious organizations with distinguished co-authors, and that is published in journals with exacting review processes, it becomes evident that some unscrupulous scientists are adept at fabricating and falsifying data. However, "significant" scientific fraud is detected when scientists repeatedly report results that cannot be independently verified, when colleagues report suspicious behaviour, or scientific audits are performed. This review documents and compares many of the better-known cases of scientific fraud. Fraudulent behaviour has served as the impetus for the scientific community to develop publication procedures and guidelines that help to guard against not only fraudulent behaviour but also against other types of unethical or undesirable behaviours. A companion paper reviews the non-fraudulent issues associated with scientific publication. Published by Elsevier B.V.

Claxton : E-mail Addresses: claxton.larry at epa.gov Title: Scientific authorship Part 2. History, recurring issues, practices, and guidelines Author(s): Claxton LD Source: MUTATION RESEARCH-REVIEWS IN MUTATION RESEARCH 589 (1): 31-45 JAN 2005 Document Type: Review Language: English Cited References: 68 Times Cited: 1 Abstract: One challenge for most scientists is avoiding and resolving issues that center around authorship and the publishing of scientific manuscripts. While trying to place the research in proper context, impart new knowledge, follow proper guidelines, and publish in the most appropriate journal, the scientist often must deal with multi-collaborator issues like authorship allocation, trust and dependence, and resolution of publication conflicts. Most guidelines regarding publications, commentaries, and editorials have evolved from the ranks of editors in an effort to diminish the issues that faced them as editors. For example, the Ingelfinger rule attempts to prevent duplicate publications of the same study. This paper provides a historical overview of commonly encountered scientific authorship issues, a comparison of opinions on these issues, and the influence of various organizations and guidelines in regards to these issues. For example, a number of organizations provide guidelines for author allocation; however, a comparison shows that these guidelines differ on who should be an author, rules for ordering authors, and the level of responsibility for coauthors. Needs that emerge from this review are (a) a need for more controlled studies on authorship issues, (b) an increased awareness and a buy-in to consensus views by non-editor groups, e.g., managers, authors, reviewers, and scientific societies, and (c) a need for editors to express a greater understanding of authors' dilemmas and to exhibit greater flexibility. Also needed are occasions (e.g., an international congress) when editors and others (managers, authors, etc.) can directly exchange views, develop consensus approaches and solutions, and seek agreement on how to resolve authorship issues. Open dialogue is healthy, and it is essential for scientific integrity to be protected so that younger scientists can confidently follow the lead of their predecessors. Published by Elsevier B.V.

The reference section can play a key role to researchers who are interested in a paper's statement or who would like to follow the study or find useful information from the paper. Citation error and quotation error occurred very frequently in a scientific paper, however, the author easily ignores it. Ozturk and Bektas published a paper, there is no doubt about this paper, which was previously evaluated and accepted for publication. This study presents quotation and citation errors of Lagergren's pseudo- first order rate equation and Ho's pseudo-second order rate expression. It is also suggested that an author not only must be creative but also must be careful while writing in order to publish more valuable and papers more worthy of reading. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V.

According to Pavitt's claim (Research Policy 27 (1998) 793), the aim of this paper is to show that the differences in innovation intensity of the scientific bodies (institutes) belonging to the largest public research institution in Italy (National Research Council, CNR) are affected rather by the carrying out of basic scientific activities than the development of research activities suitable to the innovation needs of firms. CNR has remarkable records of scientific achievements, mainly in basic science, medicine, biology, computer science and engineering, performed by 108 institutes spread over all Italian regions. Regarding its mission, a novel framework of CNR technology production has been introduced, in order to guide an empirical analysis into the determinants of the differences in technology production of CNR institutes. This framework relates the CNR patenting data and a selected set of scientific indicators, in order to single out the kind of link between technological production and scientific activities. The analysis shows the following results: There is a positive correlation between scientific activity, measured by bibliometric analysis, and technological production; The collaboration with other public or private institution and market oriented activity do not affect the innovation intensity of the CNR institutes.

Nonetheless, debates frequently arise because journal rankings do not take into account the underlying diversity of the finance research community. This study examines how factors such as a researcher's geographic origin, research interests, seniority, and journal affiliation influence journal quality perceptions and readership patterns. Based on a worldwide sample of 862 finance academics, we find remarkable consistency in the rankings of top journals. For the remaining journals, perception of journal quality differs depending on the researcher's geographic origin, research interests, seniority, and journal affiliation.

More than 40 communication journals are ISI-ranked. Such journals are referred to as \"major international\" journals. This analysis of ISI-data revealed that the attribute international is not always appropriate. On the contrary authors and editors from the US dominate most communication journals. A regression showed that age of a journal and an explicit stated international mission lead to a higher national diversity, while internationality of the associated organization or impact of a journal had no impact. The results suggest (1) to distinguish clearly between national and international communication journals and (2) to enlarge the ISI sample of national and international communication journals.

Methods: A gold standard of 1,347 RCT records and a comparison group of 2,400 non-trials were randomly selected from MEDLINE. Terms occurring in at least 1% of RCT records were identified. Fifty percent of the RCT and comparison group records were randomly selected, and the ability of the terms to discriminate RCTs from non-trial records was determined using logistic regression. The best performing combinations of terms were tested on the remaining records and in MEDLINE. Results: The best discriminating term was "Clinical Trial" (Publication Type). In years where the Cochrane assessment of MEDLINE records had taken place, the strategies identified few additional unindexed records of trials. In years where Cochrane assessment has yet to take place, "Randomized Controlled Trial" (Publication Type) proved highly sensitive and precise. Adding six more search terms identified further, unindexed trials at reasonable levels of precision and with sensitivity almost equal to the Cochrane HSSS. Conclusions: Most reports of RCTs in MEDLINE can now be identified easily using "Randomized Controlled Trial" (Publication Type). More sensitive searches can be achieved by a brief strategy, the Centre for Reviews and Dissemination/Cochrane Highly Sensitive Search Strategy (2005 revision).

This overview summarizes eighteen studies covering general nursing and sixteen specialties. Method: Following a common protocol, citations from source journals were analyzed for a three-year period within the years 1996 to 2000. Analysis included cited formats, age, and ranking of the frequency of cited journal titles. Highly cited journals were analyzed for coverage in twelve health sciences and academic databases. Results: journals were the most frequently cited format, followed by books. More than 60% of the cited resources were published in the previous seven years. Bradford's law was validated, with a small core of cited journals accounting for a third of the citations. Medical and science databases provided the most comprehensive access for biomedical titles, while CINAHL and PubMed provided the best access for nursing journals. Discussion: Beyond a heavily cited core, nursing journal citations are widely dispersed among a variety of sources and disciplines, with corresponding access via a variety of bibliographic tools. Results underscore the interdisciplinary nature of the nursing profession. Conclusion: For comprehensive searches, nurses need to search multiple databases. Libraries need to provide access to databases' beyond PubMed, including CINAHL and academic databases. Database vendors should improve their coverage of nursing, biomedical, and psychosocial titles identified in these studies. Additional research is needed to update these studies and analyze nursing specialties not covered.

Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology 57 (9): 1233-1242 JUL 2006 Message-ID: R. H. Veith : rveith at gti.net Title: Memex at 60: Internet or mod? Author(s): Veith RH Source: JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR INFORMATION SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY 57 (9): 1233-1242 JUL 2006 Document Type: Article Language: English Cited References: 19 Times Cited: 0 Abstract: It has been 61 years since the 1945 Memex article, and so much has changed since then that we might well wonder whether the article is still worth looking at. It certainly inspired some of the leading figures in information technology, but now it seems to be cited either for things it did not really say, or because everything it proposed has been pretty much accomplished, albeit with alternate technology. If we take another look at the Memex description, though, there are a few key ideas that can still be goals in terms of an easy-to-use personal collection that is a supplement to one's own memory. Perhaps in today's terms, the device would be a combination of the iPod design and a tablet computer. As such, it could function as a handy information pod, with certain Memex features, serving as an extended personal memory.

Zipf's law models the statistical proportions of various phenomena in human ecology, including natural languages. Given Esperanto's artificial origins, one wonders how "natural" it appears, relative to other natural languages, in the context of Zipf's law. To explore this question, we collected a total of 283 books from six languages: English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, and Esperanto. We applied Zipf-based metrics on our corpus to extract distributions for word, word distance, word bigram, word trigram, and word length for each book. Statistical analyses show that Esperanto's statistical proportions are similar to those of other languages. We then trained artificial neural networks (ANNs) to classify books according to language. The ANNs achieved high accuracy rates (86.3% to 98.6%). Subsequent analysis identified German as having the most unique proportions, followed by Esperanto, Italian, Spanish, English, and French. Analysis of misclassified patterns shows that Esperanto's statistical proportions resemble mostly those of German and Spanish, and least those of French and Italian.

Citation counting is also used to assess the merits of individual scientists when academic promotion and tenure are decided. With the help of Thomson, Institute for Scientific Information (Thomson ISI) a citation database was created for six leading forensic science and legal medicine journals. This database was used to determine the most highly cited articles, authors, journals and the most prolific authors of articles in the forensic sciences. The forensic science and legal medicine journals evaluated were: Journal of Forensic Sciences (JFS), Forensic Science International (FSI), International Journal of Legal Medicine (IJLM), Medicine, Science and the Law (MSL), American Journal of Forensic Medicine and Pathology (AJFMP), and Science and Justice (S&J). The resulting forensics database contained 14,210 papers published between 1981 and 2003. This in-depth bibliometric analysis has identified the creme de la creme in forensic science and legal medicine in a quantitative and objective way by citation analysis with focus on articles, authors and journals Addresses: Jones AW (reprint author), Linkoping Univ Hosp, Dept Forens Toxicol, Linkoping, S-58185 Sweden Linkoping Univ Hosp, Dept Forens Toxicol, Linkoping, S-58185 Sweden E-mail Addresses: wayne.jones at RMV.se Publisher: SPRINGER, 233 SPRING STREET, NEW YORK, NY 10013 USA Subject Category: MEDICINE, LEGAL IDS Number: 903KV ISSN: 0937-9827 CITED REFERENCES: ADAM D The counting house NATURE 415 : 726 2002 COLE S CITATIONS AND THE EVALUATION OF INDIVIDUAL SCIENTISTS TRENDS IN BIOCHEMICAL SCIENCES 14 : 9 1989 CRONIN B ASIS MONOGRAPH SERIE : 2000 CRONIN B CITATION PROCESS ROL : 1984 FOSTER KR JUDGING SCI SCI KNOW : 1999 GARFIELD E How can impact factors be improved?

Message-ID: E-mail Addresses: euturne at lsu.edu Title: On the cusp of restoration: Science and society Author(s): Turner RE Source: RESTORATION ECOLOGY 13 (1): 165-173 MAR 2005 Document Type: Article Language: English Cited References: 32 Times Cited: 1 Abstract: Habitat restoration has reached political respectability at many scales across the Earth and represents a serious reversal of some entrenched social views regarding the environment as a strictly exploitable resource for private gain. Science helps improve restoration by bringing clarity in the form of order, understanding, and descriptions of uncertainty. But scientific ideas and experience must be offered in a timely manner and welcomed to be a useful and accurate part of restoration. These ideas may be adopted or fail to be influential for vastly different reasons. Valid ideas may be untimely or be packaged too poorly to be acceptable, or an idea may be erroneous, but still be acceptable (and lead to poor decisions) where the ability to convince or superior networking skills compensate for an inadequacy of facts, logic, or intentions. The most desirable outcome is to fairly weigh all relevant ideas during decision-making, and without confusing accuracy and clarity with consensus or deliberative inclusivity. Project scale influences these outcomes because social and policy complexity increases with project size. Ideas, of whatever origin, must be applied in the imperfectly comprehended landscape and "policy-scape" of policies and personal preferences influencing the spatial productivity, richness, and uses. Successful habitat restoration will have the science welcomed and developing in well-ventilated and professional ways, while simultaneously participating in the world of the larger policy-scape. Judgments will be made and mistakes occur, of course. But, if done well, we may end up restoring habitats, institutions and parts of society.

This enabled the widespread dissemination of data to global audiences and greatly facilitated not only the advance of science but amplified the interaction between investigators despite their different locations. This process continued to expand in a linear fashion prior to the emergence of the Internet. The latter system has prompted a phenomenal augmentation of information accessibility, and its ever-expanding use has resulted in an exponential increase in the demand for digital technology and online resources. This technology has achieved unprecedented acceptance in the scientific domain and enabled publishers to expeditiously produce and distribute journal contents online. Such unparalleled access to information has sparked incendiary debate within the scientific community and among journal publishers in regard to numerous issues. It is thus much debated as to who has the right to "owns' or control intellectual property, whether information should be made freely available to the online global community, how to gauge the legitimacy and authenticity of published research, and the need to reexamine the feasibility and profitability of paper journals in consideration of the digital, online formats that continue to gain popularity. To assess the Current status of the situation, a meeting of journal editors, research scientists, and publishing executives was held in Constance, Germany, on June 26, 2004, to discuss these issues and formulate strategies and recommendations for the future of biomedical publishing. Herewith we provide a summation (manifesto) of the meeting's proceedings and provide a consensus opinion with the aim of illuminating the subject and also proposing some putative solutions for the major challenges that currently confront the scientific and publishing community.

This study identified the "trauma classics" by reviewing the most-cited articles ever published in The Journal of Trauma. Methods: The Science Citation Index of the Institute for Scientific Information was searched for the 50 most-cited articles in The Journal of Trauma. Results: Of the 12,672 articles published since 1961, 80 were cited over 100 times and 17 over 200 times. The most-cited article was by Baker, a hallmark publication on injury scoring published in 1974. Feeding postinjury, bacterial translocation, and multiple organ failure were common themes. Overall, 32% involved gastrointestinal topics and 18% involved injury scoring, with institutions in the United States publishing 80% of the articles. Conclusion: This study identified the trauma classics from the last 42 years of The Journal of Trauma. Citation analysis has recognized limitations but gives a fascinating insight into the evolution of trauma care.

Two principal questions are the following: 1) What research do American Journal of Epidemiology (AJE) authors rely on to support, inform, and frame their investigations? and 2) to what extent do such authors use social scientific and statistical citations? The data used appear to be superior to those used in previous efforts because they contain complete citations for all articles published, along with complete within-article citations, for all AJE articles published from January 1981 to December 2002. The most frequent AJE citations are statistically oriented works. About 9% of citations are to AJE articles, 15% are to a larger set of eight epidemiologic journals, 15% are to a select set of eight medical journals, 3% are to (bio)statistics journals, and just 0.2% are to social science journals. Trend analysis reveals little change during the 22-year study period. The principal implication is that AJE authors are overlooking a vast literature that could inform their understanding of how exposures emerge and are maintained.

A current trend is to use this data as a means for evaluating the performance of departments, institutions, and even researchers in academic institutions-a process that is now being tied to tenure and promotion-despite the fact that such usage can be misleading and prejudicial. This paper will highlight the history of the development of impact factors, describe the limitations in their use, and provide a critique of the usage of impact factors in academic settings.

The purpose of this paper is to explore the relationship between the stated mission and the executed mission as reflected by the characteristics of papers published in Cortex. In addition, we examine whether the results and conclusions of an analysis of this kind are affected by the level of description of the published papers. Objectives: A) Identify characteristics of contributors to Cortex; B) Identify characteristics of those who cite Cortex; C) Identify recurring themes; D) Identify the relationships among the recurring themes; E) Compare recurring themes and determine their relationships to the mission of Cortex; F) Identify the sensitivity of these results to the level of description of the Cortex papers used as the source database. G) Compare Cortex characteristics with those of Neuropsychologia, another Europe-based international neuropsychology journal. Methods: Text mining (extraction of useful information from text) was used to generate the characteristics of the journal Cortex. Bibliometrics provided the Cortex contributor infrastructure (author/ organization/ country/ citation distributions), and computational linguistics identified the recurring technical themes and their inter-relationships. Citation mining (the integration of citation bibliometrics and text mining) was used to profile the research user community. Four levels of published article description were compared for the analysis: Full Text, Abstract, Title, Keywords. Results and Conclusions: Highly cited documents were compared among Cortex, Neuropsychologia, and Brain, and a number of interesting parametric trends were observed. The characteristics of the papers that cite Cortex papers were examined, and some interesting insights were generated. Finally, the document clustering taxonomy showed that papers in y Cortex can be reasonably divided into four categories (papers in each category in parenthesis): Semantic Memory (151); Handedness (145): Amnesia (119); and Neglect (66). It is concluded that Cortex needs to take steps to attract a more diverse group of contributors outside its continental Western European base if it wishes to capture a greater share of seminal neuropsychology papers. Further investigation of the critical citation differences reported in the paper is recommended.

The aim of the List is to provide a forum for discussing of ideas, results and events in the field of Education/Science Policy, Management and Planning. The List seeks to link participants with shared interests in those areas. We hope these people to be future authors, reviewers and readers of BJSEP. University professors, independent scholars, educators, government policy-makers are very welcome here. BulgJSEP has a two-fold purpose: (1) to foster communication and debate among the international community of professionals and scholars interested in the contemporary general problems of science and education, and (2) to serve as a clearinghouse for information relevant to the varied professional interests of this community, including research methods, scholarly conferences, and publications. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BulgJSEP Prof. B.V.

A flagellant, she boldly does defy Reality her schemes to falsify. And yet this noble jousting were in vain, and all this pain would yield no grain of gain if Science were content, a shrinking violet, her works from all the world 'ere to keep private. Instead, performance public and artistic, restraining all propensities autistic, perhaps less out of error-making dread, than banal need to earn her daily bread. For showbiz being what it is today, work's not enough, you've got to make it pay. What ratings, sweeps and polls count for our actors, no less than our elected benefactors, for Science the commensurate equation is not just publication but citation. The more your work is accessed, read and used, the higher then is reckoned its just dues. Sounds crass, but there may be some consolation, where there's still some residual motivation to make a difference, not just make a fee: the World Wide Web at last can make Science free. http://www.spiked-online.com/articles/0000000CAA38.htm http://www.eprints.org/openaccess/ http://openaccess.eprints.org/index.php?/archives/112-guid.html Stevan Harnad From garfield at CODEX.CIS.UPENN.EDU Fri Jul 21 15:46:51 2006 From: garfield at CODEX.CIS.UPENN.EDU (Eugene Garfield) Date: Fri, 21 Jul 2006 15:46:51 -0400 Subject: Gorman GE "How do we count our chickens?

This was a longitudinal bibliometric analysis of a cohort of OA and non-OA articles published between June 8, 2004, and December 20, 2004, in the same journal (PNAS: Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences). Article characteristics were extracted, and citation data were compared between the two groups at three different points in time: at "quasi-baseline" (December 2004,0-6 mo after publication), in April 2005 (410 mo after publication), and in October 2005 (10-16 mo after publication). Potentially confounding variables, including number of authors, authors' lifetime publication count and impact, submission track, country of corresponding author, funding organization, and discipline, were adjusted for in logistic and linear multiple regression models. A total of 1,492 original research articles were analyzed: 212 (14.2% of all articles) were OA articles paid by the author, and 1,280 (85.8%) were non-OA articles. In April 2005 (mean 206 d after publication), 627 (49.0%) of the non-OA articles versus 78 (36.8%) of the OA articles were not cited (relative risk = 1.3 [95% Confidence Interval: 1.1-1.6]; p = 0.001). 6 mo later (mean 288 d after publication), non-OA articles were still more likely to be uncited (non-OA: 172 [13.6%], OA: 11 [5.2%]; relative risk = 2.6 [1.4-4.7]; p < 0.001). The average number of citations of OA articles was higher compared to non-OA articles (April 2005: 1.5 [SD = 2.5] versus 1.2 [SD =2.0]; Z = 3.123; p = 0.002; October 2005: 6.4 [SD = 10.4] versus 4.5 [SD = 4.9]; Z = 4.058; p < 0.001). In a logistic regression model, controlling for potential confounders, OA articles compared to non-OA articles remained twice as likely to be cited (odds ratio = 2.1 [1.5-2.9]) in the first 4-10 mo after publication (April 2005), with the odds ratio increasing to 2.9 (1.5-5.5) 10-16 mo after publication (October 2005). Articles published as an immediate OA article on the journal site have higher impact than self-archived or otherwise openly accessible CIA articles. We found strong evidence that, even in a journal that is widely available in research libraries, OA articles are more immediately recognized and cited by peers than non-OA articles published in the same journal. OA is likely to benefit science by accelerating dissemination and uptake of research findings.

Compared with content analysis, citation analysis can discover more implicitly related papers. However, the citation-based methods may introduce more noise in citation graph and cause topic drift. Some work combine content with citation to improve similarity measurement. The problem is that the two features are not used to reinforce each other to get better result. To solve the problem, we propose a new algorithm, Topic Sensitive Similarity Propagation (TSSP), to effectively integrate content similarity, into similarity propagation. TSSP has two parts. citation context based propagation and iterative reinforcement. First, citation contexts provide clues for which papers are topic related to and filter out less irrelevant citations. Second, iteratively integrating content and citation similarity enable them to reinforce each other during the propagation. The experimental results of a user study show TSSP outperforms other algorithms in almost all cases.

Moore Department of Chemistry, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, WI 53706 Asking the right questions is crucial to scientific work, but this is an aspect that is woefully neglected when students are introduced to science. Albert Einstein submitted six papers to Annalen der Physik during 1905-each of them of crucial importance to physics and to all of science. In this issue JCE celebrates the centennial of Einstein's annus mirabilis-miraculous year-with papers about Einstein himself, E = mc2 (article 1, 2), Brownian motion, relativistic effects on the properties of heavy main-group elements, and quantum dots (article 1, 2). Einstein Revisited, by Leonard Fine, nicely documents the content of Einstein's six papers and their implications for chemistry and other sciences as well as for physics. In a single year Einstein's work supported the idea that both energy and matter occur in quanta. __________________________________________________ Eugene Garfield, PhD. email: garfield at codex.cis.upenn.edu home page: www.eugenegarfield.org Tel: 215-243-2205 Fax 215-387-1266 -----Original Message----- From: ASIS&T Special Interest Group on Metrics [mailto:SIGMETRICS at LISTSERV.UTK.EDU] On Behalf Of Garfield, Eugene Sent: Friday, July 21, 2006 4:11 PM To: SIGMETRICS at LISTSERV.UTK.EDU Subject: [SIGMETRICS] Fine L.

Some technologies have been fully studied and utilized upon this meaningful information to improve the organization, analysis and evaluation of scientific digital libraries. In this paper, we present a CiteSeer-like system to access scientific papers in computer science discipline by reference linking technique. Moreover, implicit semantics behind reference indices are mined and organized to improve accessibility of scientific papers. In order to model scientific literature and their interlinked relationships, we develop a domain- specific ontology to analyze contents and citation anchor context of scientific papers. Compared with abstract of a specific paper written by authors themselves, we introduce an automatic summary generation algorithm to create objective descriptions from other scholars' perspectives based on the ontology. Semantic queries can also be asked to discover interesting patterns in scientific libraries in order to provide a comprehensive and meaningful guidance for users.

The authors use a new approach that combines elements of these two alternatives and compile a database of 6,294 citations (representing 3,423 different articles) from 109 syllabi obtained from a broad sampling of AACSB- International-accredited schools with marketing doctoral programs. The five most cited journals (Journal of Marketing, Journal of Consumer Research, Journal of Marketing Research, Marketing Science, and Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science) account for 66.5 percent of citations in the syllabi. Rankings of journals other than the top five vary markedly from previous journal quality studies. Few articles are cited in common across programs, and the authors find considerable variation even within individual seminar types. The findings provide a new basis for assessing the quality of journals and provide new insights about the content of doctoral programs.

Moore SOURCE: British Medical Journal 330(7504):1391 (11 June)2005 Letter Online music model could work for journals ------------------------------------------ EDITOR? The main issue I see about professional journals is their greed.1 I once wanted to download an article from one of the major US journals because I was too lazy to walk down a flight of stairs to go to the department library, and the paper seemed interesting in a train of thought I didn't want to interrupt. The charge asked was $40 (?22; 33). Considering the cost of a yearly subscription and the number of research papers per year, the cost per printed research paper was about $0.40 (online cost without paper, ink, or postage could be much lower). I did not pay the $40: I walked down to the library, and photocopied the article, which cost me less than a dollar, at no profit to the journal. I could also have asked a colleague with a subscription to download it for me and email it. Had the online paper been for instance at $0.99 (as the songs on iTunes or other similar services) I would have paid that amount without any qualms and without noticing it, probably spending overall much more on the journal at the end of the year than the $40. By charging too much per paper, the major journals are shooting themselves in the foot. It would be interesting to see whether a business model charging a small sum ($0.99 or 0.99 or ?0.69) would lead to increased downloads of papers. And for that sum, most people would not try to find an illegal copy. Free is better of course, but not always realistic. Exorbitant is bad. It works for music, why shouldn't it work for science? The models are out there. Nicholas D Moore, professor of clinical pharmacology Universit? Victor Segalen, 33076 Bordeaux, France nicholas.moore at pharmaco.u- bordeaux2.fr ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Competing interests: NDM does not feel the need to subscribe to journals for just a few papers per year and doesn't want to pay 100 times the actual cost of the papers online. Application of this model could benefit consumers, including himself. References Lenzer J. Medical societies react against public access to findings. BMJ 2005;330: 1104-d.

In this directed network, a new node gets attached to an older node with the probability similar to K (k)f(t) where the degree and age of the older node are k and t. respectively. Several functional forms of K(k) and f(t) have been considered. The desirable features of the citation network can be reproduced with K(k)similar to k(-beta) and f(t)similar to exp(alpha t) with beta = 2.0 and alpha = -0.2 and with simple modifications in the growth scheme.

The publication of research is a vital part of clinical and experimental research, and citation analyses of research publications have increasingly been adopted as a means of assessing the apparent quality of journals and the research published therein. In the first of a series of articles for those embarking on ophthalmic and vision science research, this paper discusses the key features of citation analysis, concentrating on the 2004 Journal Citation Report figures for the field of ophthalmology that include 42 ophthalmology, vision science, physiological optics, and optometry journals. The Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) calculates a number of parameters including citation counts, Journal Impact Factor (JIF), Immediacy Index, and cited/citing half-life. This article discusses the methods of calculation and possible uses along with current controversies and potential abuses. The JIF and its relevance, potential bias, and limitations are discussed in depth as it has become the most widely used analysis of journal quality. The possible alternatives to ISI citation analysis are presented, and we conclude that citation analysis can be considered a reasonable measure of journal research quality only if used correctly.

The first article in this series placed scientific journals in perspective in relation to Journal Impact Factors and citation indices. This second article in a series primarily aimed at those commencing research, particularly in the area of ophthalmology and vision science, delineates the interrelated components that are required to complete a research project. Successful research projects seldom emerge from serendipitous observation, and most evolve through a combination of inspiration, careful planning, and a great deal of industry. Beginning researchers must first be clear about their reason(s) for pursuing research and should identify potential mentors and collaborators at the outset. This article discusses methods of identifying suitable projects and mentors. Ten component areas necessary to complete a research project are addressed, with reference to relevant published literature, under the following topic areas: mentors and collaborators; finding a research topic; confirming suitability of the topic; defining the research question; developing the hypothesis; key considerations in study design; threats to study validity; study sample size; benefits and limitations of clinical science; completing to publication. This guide is intended to be applicable to all embarking on research, but particularly to those with an interest in the visual system. The final 3 articles in this series will deal with writing a research paper to publication standard, working successfully with the journal review process, and refining electronic literature searches.

In an ongoing series, this third article is the first of 2 related articles that deal with the basics of producing a high-quality research manuscript. Although ophthalmology and vision science are the principal focus of this series, the general concepts essential to producing a quality manuscript are applicable to diverse fields of research. This article highlights the exponential growth in the scientific literature over the past 40 years, considers why it is important to publish completed research, and discusses the necessity of identifying the key messages of the research, and their context, in relation to the published literature. The ethics of publishing biomedical research and scientific misconduct, such as duplicate publication or plagiarism, are outlined. To avoid later conflict, there is a critical need for coworkers to carefully address authorship order and inclusion early in the manuscript process. Internationally agreed guidelines are identified to guide this process. The importance of choosing the correct journal for a specific article and the nature of basic citation indices are discussed. The article concludes by elaborating and contrasting different scientific writing styles and emphasizing the considerable importance of developing a representative title and applying clarity and appropriate structure to the abstract.

Although ophthalmology and vision science are the principal focus of this series, the general concepts essential to producing a quality manuscript are applicable to diverse fields of research. This article provides guidelines on how to present research findings in a structured form using the Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion (IMRaD) style. The components to be included, and equally important excluded, from each section are elucidated in detail. Commonly omitted or inaccurately or incompletely presented components of the manuscript, such as statistical analysis and references, are highlighted. The necessity to carefully refine manuscripts before submission is discussed. This article concludes by illustrating methods of appropriately dealing with referees' comments and resubmitting manuscripts. Although researchers may have to deal with rejection as part of the process, we hope that this series provides an easy- to-follow structure to maximize manuscript quality and improve the prospect of scientific publication.

Understanding how to use such databases efficiently is critical for those involved in research. However, for the uninitiated, getting started is a major hurdle to overcome and for the occasional user, the finer points of database searching remain an unacquired skill. In the fifth and final article in this series aimed at those embarking on ophthalmology and vision science research, we look at how the beginning researcher can start to use literature databases and, by using a stepwise approach, how they can optimize their use. This instructional paper gives a hypothetical example of a researcher writing a review article and how he or she acquires the necessary scientific literature for the article. A prototype search of the Medline database is used to illustrate how even a novice might swiftly acquire the skills required for a medium-level search. It provides examples and key tips that can increase the proficiency of the occasional user. Pitfalls of database searching are discussed, as are the limitations of which the user should be aware.

Source: Technical Communication, Volume 52, Number 1, February 2005, pp. 7-8 (2) FULL TEXT.... Citation, citation, citation.(EDITORIAL). George F. Hayhoe. Technical Communication 52.1 (Feb 2005): p7(2). It's one thing for me or for others within the Society for Technical Communication to claim that this is the flagship journal of our profession. It's quite another to rate our performance on more objective criteria. So I'd like to examine how Technical communication compares with other technical and professional communication journals. Real estate agents joke that the three most important factors contributing to the desirability of a property are location, location, location. Similarly, journal editors might say that the three most important determiners of a journal's reputation are citation, citation, citation. In other words, the best measure of the significance of a journal is how often its articles are referred to by those publishing in the field. ESSENTIAL WORKS Our discipline is fortunate to have five outstanding journals: * Technical communication (TC), published by STC since 1954 * IEEE transactions on professional communication (IEEE), published by the IEEE Professional Communication Society since 1958 * Journal of technical writing and communication (JTWC), first published by Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1971 and currently by Baywood Publishing Company * Journal of business and technical communication (JBTC), published by Sage Publications since 1987 * Technical communication quarterly (TCQ), published by the Association of Teachers of Technical Writing since 1992 These journals are all peer-reviewed, and together they publish about 120 articles each year. Although they all target an audience of both practitioners and academics, some are arguably less accessible--and perhaps of less interest--to practitioners. So how do these journals compare in terms of citation by those who publish in the field? Gerald Alred, one of our discipline's two principal bibliographers, assembled an annotated list of "Essential works on technical communication" for the special 50th anniversary issue of TC (50:585-616) in November 2003. Beginning with about 600 works gathered from a variety of published sources and individuals, Alred narrowed his list to 115 based on "the number and diversity of sources listing ... [a] particular title" (p. 585). Not surprisingly, the vast majority of works that Alred included (88 of the 115) are books and book chapters. Of the 27 journal articles on his list, however, TC and JBTC account for eight each, TCQ has four, and JTWC is represented by one. The remaining seven articles appeared in journals specializing in the broader fields of rhetoric, writing, and speech. Since TC is the oldest and has the largest circulation, there's no surprise that it is tied for the journal with most articles on Alred's list. Nevertheless, IEEE, the second-oldest journal in the field, is not represented on the list at all, and JBTC--a relative newcomer that probably has more institutional than individual subscribers because it is commercially published--is tied for first place among journals on Alred's list of essential works. Perhaps a more comprehensive listing will allow us to compare citation frequency more accurately. STRENGTH AND DIVERSITY OF OUR JOURNALS Our second notable bibliographer, Elizabeth Overman Smith, published "Strength in the technical communication journals and diversity in the serials cited" in JBTC (14:131-184) in April 2000. Smith's article had two goals: "to determine the strength of five technical communication journals as forums as evidenced by the depth and rigor of the scholarly conversations they publish" and "to identify the serials (journals, magazines, and newspapers) that technical communication professionals use for background and support for their professional activities" (p. 132). To accomplish her goals, Smith analyzed the sources referenced by the authors in all of the articles published in the five technical and professional communication journals between 1988 and 1997 (she included articles published in The technical writing teacher, TCQ's predecessor, for 1987-1991). Slightly fewer than half (12,337 of 25,866) of the citations Smith analyzed referred to articles appearing in journals, newspapers, and magazines (again, books were more frequently referenced than articles). TC was the most frequently cited journal, with a total of 894 citations; the others most frequently cited were, not surprisingly, the other four journals in the field: JTWC with 624, IEEE with 563, JBTC with 454, and TCQ with 453. In addition, TC published 9 of the 163 frequently cited articles discussed in Smith's study, second only to JBTC with 10 (TCQ published 6 of the frequently cited articles, IEEE had 5, and JTWC published 3). According to Smith, Three findings come out of this study of the technical communication journals to support the argument that technical communication has increased its strength ... as a field of study: (1) the variety of areas discussed in the journal articles, (2) the increased reference to the technical communication journals, and (3) the prevalence of articles frequently cited from the technical and business communication journals. (p. 168) The prominence of TC in the findings of Smith's study and in Alred's bibliography of essential works is all the more impressive because it is usually regarded as the least "academic" of the five journals in the field. Indeed, during most of the period Smith covered, TC published large numbers of very practice-oriented articles of the kind now published by Intercom since its transformation from newsletter to magazine in 1996. MORE COMPREHENSIVE CITATION INDEXES For academics in the natural sciences, engineering, medicine, and some of the social sciences, simply being published isn't sufficient to earn tenure and promotion. Their article-length publications must appear in the most prestigious and high impact journals, determined by their listing in Journal citation reports, which indexes more than 7,500 of the most highly cited journals in the sciences, social sciences, arts, and humanities. TC is one of two journals in our field (JBTC is the other) currently included in the Social sciences citation index, a component of the Journal citation reports, along with approximately 1,700 other journals. Of these, 43 are in the category of communication (covering such fields as communications, journalism, mass communication, public relations, advertising, and speech). Each of the journals in the category is rated in terms of citation frequency and other factors, and in the last three years for which data is available (2001-2003), TC has ranked 2nd, 10th, and 5th respectively among the 43 journals in the category. So what does all of this mean? As the Journal citation reports Web page observes, the Reports supply "quantifiable statistical data that provides a systematic, objective way to evaluate the world's leading journals and their impact and influence in the global research community" (www.isinet.com/products/evaltools/jcr). In other words, TC and JBTC have been recognized by an external authority as the leading journals in the field of technical and professional communication, and TC ranks very high in terms of citation when compared to the most eminent journals in the larger field of communication. RELEVANCE TO PRACTITIONERS The question remains whether TC or any of the other journals in the field is meaningful to practitioners. Several weeks ago, I received an e-mail from a member explaining that one reason he wasn't renewing his membership for 2005 was that he found "the articles [in the journal] pretentious, academic, and boring to the point of being useless." He then quoted a paragraph from a recent article that he said validated this assertion. His claim frankly baffled me, so I did some analysis. All of the words in the passage were common except for one that was defined the first time it was used in the paragraph. As measured by Microsoft Word, the paragraph itself and the entire article were written at a 12th-grade reading level, with a Flesch Reading Ease score of 25, about the same as several news articles I sampled at Scientific American.com. So what made this paragraph different from most things we read? As far as I could tell, the only significant difference was the fact that it contained parenthetical citations of half a dozen books and articles. I wondered whether the writer's reaction would have been the same if the article had appeared without any citations. Does anyone besides the academics in our Society or the profession at large need TC or any other journal? This is a vitally important question because journals are expensive to produce, print, and distribute, both in paper and electronic form. I cannot speak for any of the other technical and professional communication journals, and I'm far from an unbiased source, but I believe that practitioners are the most significant audience of TC. Every peer review team evaluating manuscripts for potential publication in these pages includes at least one practitioner as well as one academic, and the first two criteria used for acceptance decisions place heavy weight on a manuscript's awareness of and applicability to the practitioner audience. With that information in mind, should we believe that the articles that TC publishes are--or should be--light reading? Certainly not. But I think that it does mean that those articles should be raw material for what we might call the practitioners' citation index. It would be fascinating to survey practitioners each year to determine how many of them have used ideas presented in articles we publish in the journals in the field. I believe that if we did have a practitioners' citation index, TC would rate as highly there as it does on the more academic scales. George F. Hayhoe Editor Source Citation: Hayhoe, George F.

Two large data sets of queries submitted to the Excite search service were sampled for search characteristics (term frequencies, terms used per query, pages viewed per query, queries submitted per session) producing data sets of various sizes that were fitted to theoretical models to determine how the sample may influence a model's goodness-of-fit. Although theoretical models could adequately fit smaller data sets of up to 5000 observations in some cases, larger data sets could not be satisfactorily fitted using several goodness-of-fit techniques. Investigators must take into account that sample size does influence goodness-of-fit outcomes. The nature of the data and not the limitations of given goodness-of-fit tests results in significant outcomes. Such goodness-of-fit tests should be used for comparative purposes, rather than significance testing.

After a short introduction, Subito will be presented briefly. The main part reports on the design and the results of the study, which covers the following major topics: distribution of article orders to journals, identification of the core journals which contribute to most article supplies, subject distribution of the most requested journals, relation between the most requested (Subito) and the most cited journals (SCI), differences in age of ordered and cited articles, and dependency of journal requests on their subscription rates. As will be shown, most Subito article orders are covered by a relatively small number of journals, most of which are from life sciences, especially medicine. There is only a slight overlap between the most requested and the most cited journals suggesting that these two indicators represent different concepts. This is also confirmed by different obsolescence characteristics. The share of current publications is much higher among ordered than among cited articles. Finally, there was no evidence that articles of journals with higher subscription rates are ordered more often.

One of the difficulties in applying association rules mining is the setting of support constraints. A high-support constraint avoids the combinatorial explosion in discovering frequent itemsets, but at the expense of missing interesting patterns of low support. Instead of seeking a way to set the appropriate support constraints, all current approaches leave the users in charge of the support setting, which, however, puts the users in a dilemma. This paper is an effort to answer this long-standing open question. According to the notion of confidence and lift measures, we propose an automatic support specification for efficiently mining high-confidence and positive-lift associations without consulting the users. Experimental results show that the proposed method is not only good at discovering high-confidence and positive-lift associations, but also effective in reducing spurious frequent itemsets.

To interchange XML documents between two parties, it is necessary to transform XML documents into ones that conform to the schema of a partner. Since a transformation is repeatedly applied to a large volume of XML documents, the transformation speed is important. This paper proposes a method for generating XSLT scripts, which support the fast transformation of XML documents, given one-to-one matching relationships between leaf nodes of XML schemas. The proposed method consists of two steps: computing matches between internal nodes and generating XSLT scripts. Specifically, the proposed method considers many-to-one matches among cardinality nodes. The transformation of recursive structures is also supported. The proposed method generates XSLT scripts with fewer templates that are proportional to the number of the matches between recursive nodes. Experimental results show that the proposed method generates XSLT scripts that support the faster transformation of XML documents, compared with previous work.

A content analysis of 574 citation contexts from 497 journal articles citing an edition of Frederick P. Brooks, Jr's The Mythical Man-Month (MMM) over the period 1975-1999 showed that MMM represents a variety of different concepts and is cited in a wide range of subject areas. Over time, a high level of interest in MMM spread from software engineering and computer science to management and information systems, with different areas showing different patterns of focus on concepts within the work. 'Brooks' Law' (the 'mythical man-month' or 'adding more people to a late project makes it later'), accounted for less than 30% of the classified citation contexts. The findings contribute to our understanding of the diffusion of ideas in scholarly communication, and the diversity that can underlie the creation of a reference in a scholarly publication.

Is the United States an empire, in fact or in the making? This article attempts to elaborate the conceptual resources required to answer such quesfions. I focus on multiple forms of hierarchy in anarchy and diverse practices of sovereign inequality - concepts that most main-diverse stream perspectives ignore, find paradoxical, or even dismiss as selfconLradictory.' After defining empire and hierarchy in anarchy, I present a typology of international orders tuned to thinking about empire and its alternatives. The central section of the article explores three classes of formal inequalities common during the Westphalian era - special rights of Great Powers, restricted rights for outlaws, and a wide range of particular practices of 'semi-sovereignty'. I then sketch ten historically grounded models of hierarchical international relations. Two brief applications to contemporary American power seek to illustrate the value of this conceptual apparatus. Throughout, my focus is on appreciating the precise nature and considerable variety of international inequalities. I argue that the concepts of hierarchy in anarchy and sovereign inequality but not empire, are essential for understanding the shape and development of contemporary international order.

This paper focuses on the various conceptual problems inherent in measuring the degree to which papers tend to cite other papers written by authors of the same nationality.

In this paper we focus on situations in which there is some ambiguity as to how to assign items to a class. For simplicity, we change our focus from citations to co-authorship patterns, restricting most of our discussion to papers with two authors. Like the earlier paper, we propose very simple models of the citation decision, and base our measures on the parameters that appear in the model. (c) 2006 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

A success-breeds-success or preferential attachment mechanism is established in which, from some point in time on, no new sources are created. Such systems are called mature systems. When time increases in mature systems the expected number of sources with a low number of items strictly decreases. An adaptation of the Naranan- Egghe model indicates that IPPs without low-productive sources must have small alpha exponents (alpha < 2) in their size-frequency power law descriptions. A positive reinforcement model explains all the essential properties. Using this approach it is shown that, when time increases in mature systems the alpha exponent of the power size-frequency function decreases, while, moreover, the minimum source size increases. This is the main result of this article. Examples related to country and city sizes illustrate the concepts and results discussed in this article. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

In this article, we show that an Information Production Process (IPP), traditionally characterized by Lotkaian distributions, can be fruitfully studied using the effort function, a concept introduced in an earlier article to define an Exponential Informetric Process. We thus propose replacing the concept of Lotkaian distribution by the logarithmic effort function. In particular, we show that an effort function defines an Exponential Informetric Process if its asymptotic behavior is equivalent to the logarithmic function beta(.)Log(x) with beta > 1, which is the effort function of a Lotkaian distribution.

This paper looks at the pattern of citations across different management science journals and over time. A stochastic model is proposed which views the generating mechanism of citations as a gamma mixture of Poisson processes generating overall a negative binomial distribution. This is tested empirically with a large sample of papers published in 1990 from six management science journals and found to fit well. The model is extended to include obsolescence, i.e., that the citation rate for a paper varies over its cited lifetime. This leads to the additional citations distribution which shows that future citations are a linear function of past citations with a time-dependent and decreasing slope. This is also verified empirically in a way that allows different obsolescence functions to be fitted to the data. Conclusions concerning the predictability of future citations, and future research in this area are discussed. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The titles of the journals were extracted from the database. The impact factors of the titles were also collected in order to study the distribution of impact factors. An attempt has been made to identify a suitable model to describe a distribution of impact factors. It has been observed that a Gamma distribution fits the observed data very well with one of the parameters as mean of the distribution and other parameter as I. Further it has been observed that the researchers are now publishing their articles in high impact factor journals. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The technique includes hyperlink and URL analysis to identify common direct and indirect sources of Web information. In addition, text analysis through natural language processing techniques is used identify relevant common nouns and noun phrases. A case study approach is taken, applying Web issue analysis to the topic of nurse prescribing. The results are presented in descriptive form and a qualitative analysis is used to argue that new information has been found. The nurse prescribing results demonstrate interesting new findings, such as the parochial nature of the topic in the UK, an apparent absence of similar concepts internationally, at least in the English-speaking world, and a significant concern with mental health issues. These demonstrate that automated Web issue analysis is capable of quickly delivering new insights into a problem. General limitations are that the success of Web issue analysis is dependant upon the particular topic chosen and the ability to find a phrase that accurately captures the topic and is not used in other contexts, as well as being language- specific.

The pruning maintains the geodesic distances between nodes. It has shown itself to be very useful in the analysis of, amongst others, citations in BIS (bibliometrics, informetrics, and scientometrics). It has even been proposed for the online display of the search results in an information retrieval system. However, its great time and space complexity limits its use in real-time applications and in networks of any considerable size. The present work describes an improved algorithm with considerably reduced time and space complexity. Its lower execution costs thus increase its applicability both in real time and to large networks. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

DEC 2006. p.1491-1512 PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, OXFORD SEARCH TERM(S): J INF SCI rwork KEYWORDS: feature selection; chi-square; mutual information; information gain ABSTRACT: Previous researchers have attempted to detect significant topics in news stories and blogs through the use of word frequency-based methods applied to RSS feeds. In this paper, the three statistical feature selection methods: chi(2), Mutual Information (MI) and Information Gain (I) are proposed as alternative approaches for ranking term significance in an evolving RSS feed corpus. The extent to which the three methods agree with each other on determining the degree of the significance of a term on a certain date is investigated as well as the assumption that larger values tend to indicate more significant terms. An experimental evaluation was carried out with 39 different levels of data reduction to evaluate the three methods for differing degrees of significance. The three methods showed a significant degree of disagreement for a number of terms assigned an extremely large value. Hence, the assumption that the larger a value, the higher the degree of the significance of a term should be treated cautiously. Moreover, MI and I show significant disagreement. This suggests that MI is different in the way it ranks significant terms, as MI does not take the absence of a term into account, although I does. I, however, has a higher degree of term reduction than MI and chi(2). This can result in loosing some significant terms. In summary, chi(2) seems to be the best method to determine term significance for RSS feeds, as chi(2) identifies both types of significant behavior. The chi(2) method, however, is far from perfect as an extremely high value can be assigned to relatively insignificant terms. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Macro-level studies, often based on a selected list of journals, accept a high degree of fuzziness. Micro-level studies rely on sets of individual articles in order to reduce noise and enhance precision of retrieval. The most usual information retrieval process is based on lexical queries with various levels of sophistication. In the experiment on Nanosciences reported here, this process was used as a first step, to delineate a 'seed' of literature. It has strong limitations, especially for emerging or transversal fields. In a second step, the alternative approach of citation linkages, was used to expand the bibliography starting from lexical seed. The extension process presented is ruled by three parameters, two deal with the cited side (threshold on citation score, and specificity towards the field), one with the citing side (threshold on the number of relevant references) interplaying in the 'referencing structure' function (RSF) introduced in a previous work. This type of combination proves effective for delineating the transversal field of Nanosciences. Further improvements of the method are discussed. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

For this task, we developed a methodology taking as input multi-word terms and lexico-syntactic relations between them. Our clustering algorithm, named CPCL is implemented in the Term-Watch system. We compared CPCL to other existing clustering algorithms, namely hierarchical and partitioning (k-means, k- medoids). This out-of-context clustering task led us to adapt multi-word term representation for statistical methods and also to refine an existing cluster evaluation metric, the editing distance in order to evaluate the methods. Evaluation was carried out on a list of multi-word terms from the genomic field which comes with a hand built taxonomy. Results showed that while k-means and k-medoids obtained good scores on the editing distance, they were very sensitive to term length. CPCL on the other hand obtained a better cluster homogeneity score and was less sensitive to term length. Also, CPCL showed good adaptability for handling very large and sparse matrices.

In this study we utilized and compared three major sources that provide citation data: the Web of Science, Google Scholar and Citeseer. Most cited works, citation identity, citation image makers and coauthors were identified. The citation image makers acquired through these sources differ considerably. Advantages and shortcomings of each of the tools are discussed in the context of computer science. A major issue in computer science is multiple manifestations of a work, i.e., its publication in several venues (technical reports, proceedings, journals, collections). The implications of multiple manifestations for citation analysis are discussed. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Journal's productivity of 100 most productive semiconductor journals was gathered from INSPEC database, 1978-1997 through OVID. Data of citation frequency were obtained from the Science Citation Index (SCI), Journal Citation Reports (JCR) 2001 CDROM edition by the title-by-title search. The self-citing and self-cited data were drawn from the Citing Journal Listing and the Cited Journal Listing of the JCR CDROM version 1990-2001. Self-citing and self-cited rates were determined by the method suggested by the JCR. Eighty-seven journals common to INSPEC and JCR in semiconductor were selected as the object of this study and were listed for statistical tests. The results of the present study demonstrate that high self-citing journals are usually older than low self-citing journals. In contrast to the self-citing data, the journal self-cited rate is not closely related to the publication year but reflects the characteristics of various journals. Journals with a short time interval of publication are more possible with high self-citing and self-cited rates. Journals with higher self-citing rate tend to be more productive and receive more citation than journals with lower self-citing rate. The journal self-cited rate has no association with the number of articles that a journal published and the citation it received. A journal with a higher self-citing rate tends to be cited more by itself. The mean self-citing rate is 9.59% and the mean self-cited rate is 15.03%. There is a significant difference between self-citing and self-cited rates within the same set of journals. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting: on the one hand, the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors, and on the other hand, a simplified approach to all-author co- citation counting that takes into account the first five authors of a cited work. Results indicate that the picture produced through this simplified all-author co-citation counting contains author groups that are more coherent, and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed. Variations of counting more than first authors are compared. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

By mapping the graph containing all relevant publications of members in an international collaboration network: COLLNET, we infer the structural mechanisms that govern the topology of this social system. The structure of the network affects the information available to individuals, and their opportunities to collaborate. The structure of the network also affects the overall flow of information, and the nature of the scientific community. We present a number of measures of both the macro- (whole-network) and micro(actor-centered) structure of collaboration, and apply these to COLLNET. We find that this scientific community displays many aspects of a "small-world," and is somewhat vulnerable to disruption should major figures become inactive. We also find inequality in the roles played by individuals in the network. The inequalities, however, do not create a closed and isolated "core" or elite. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The main objective was to develop appropriate techniques of full-text analysis and to improve the efficiency of the individual methods in the mapping of science. The number of papers was, however, rather limited. In the present study, we extend the quantitative linguistic part of the previous studies to a set of five journals representing the field of Library and Information Science (LIS). Almost 1000 articles and notes published in the period 2002-2004 have been selected for this exercise. The optimum solution for clustering LIS is found for six clusters. The combination of different mapping techniques, applied to the full text of scientific publications, results in a characteristic tripod pattern. Besides two clusters in bibliometrics, one cluster in information retrieval and one containing general issues, webometrics and patent studies are identified as small but emerging clusters within LIS. The study is concluded with the analysis of cluster representations by the selected journals. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

In this paper annual growth of patents in the field of superconductivity has been studied. The data in five-yearly cumulation have been set against research papers on superconductivity to show comparative growth of basic research and technological development. Two simple indicators have been devised to understand the apparent influence of basic research on technology and trends of relative growth. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

E-mail : Wartburg at econ.uni-hamburg.de Abstract Studies of technological change constitute a field of growing importance and sophistication. In this paper we contribute to the discussion with a methodological reflection and application of multi-stage patent citation analysis for the measurement of inventive progress. Investigating specific patterns of patent citation data, we conclude that single-stage citation analysis cannot reveal technological paths or lineages. Therefore, one should also make use of indirect citations and bibliographical coupling. To measure aspects of cumulative inventive progress, we develop a "shared specialization measure" of patent families. We relate this measure to an expert rating of the technological value added in the field of variable valve actuation for internal combustion engines. In sum, the study presents promising evidence for multi-stage patent citation analysis in order to explain aspects of technological change. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
