This is because different users have different information needs, but user queries are often short and, hence, ambiguous. In this paper we study personalized search in digital libraries using user profile. The search results could be re-ranked by taking into account specific information needs of different people. We study many methods for this purpose: citation-based method, content-based method and hybrid method. We conducted experiments to compare performances of these methods. Experimental results show that our approaches are promising and applicable in digital libraries.

Title: A comparative study of the productivity of HIV/AIDS literature on Nigeria and South Africa in Medline and Science Citation Index Source: AFRICAN JOURNAL OF LIBRARY ARCHIVES AND INFORMATION SCIENCE, 17 (1): 1-13 APR 2007 Language: English Document Type: Article Keywords Plus: COMMUNICATION; PATTERNS Abstract: Bibliographic data on HIV/AIDS literature on Nigeria and South Africa were drawn from Medline and Science Citation Index (SCI) respectively, covering the period 2000-2004, to study the productivity of literature produced by 'all authors', first authors, 'non-collaborative authors' and 'co-authors' using Lotka Law. The first authors in Medline did not yield usable result for Nigeria, but the characteristic exponents for the other categories of authors are higher for Nigeria (6 ranging between 2 and 4) than South Africa (6 ranging between 2 and 3). Based on SCI, the model yielded only useful result for the Nigerian co-authors, whereas all other categories of authors yielded exponents that ranged between 1 and 3 for South Africa. We deduce that Medline appears to accommodate HIV/AIDS literature emanating from Nigeria more than it does those coming-from South Africa, while the opposite is the case with SCI Finally, scientific productivity in Nigeria is more significant when assessed based on Medline than SCI. The reverse is the case for South Africa. Addresses: Univ Ibadan, Africa Reg Ctr Informat Sci, Ibadan, Nigeria Reprint Address: Nwagwu, WE, Univ Ibadan, Africa Reg Ctr Informat Sci, Ibadan, Nigeria.

Different activity and impact indicators were obtained to describe the research performance of scientists in different dimensions, being the h-index located through factor analysis in a quantitative dimension highly correlated with the absolute number of publications and citations. The need to include the remaining dimensions in the analysis of research performance of scientists and the risks of relying only on the h- index are stressed. The hypothesis that the achievement of some highly visible but intermediate-productive authors might be underestimated when compared with other scientists by means of the h-index is tested.

E. (2005). An index to quantify an individual's scientific research output. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 102(46), 16569-16572] has proposed the h index as a single-number criterion to evaluate the scientific output of a researcher. We investigated the convergent validity of decisions for awarding long-term fellowships to post-doctoral researchers as practiced by the Boehringer Ingelheim Fonds (B.I.F.) by using the h index. Our study examined 414 B.I.F. applicants (64 approved and 350 rejected) with a total of 1586 papers. The results of our study show that the applicants' h indices correlate substantially with standard bibliometric indicators. Even though the h indices of approved B.I.F. applicants on average (arithmetic mean and median) are higher than those of rejected applicants (and with this, fundamentally confirm the validity of the funding decisions), the distributions of the h indices show in part overlaps that we categorized as type I error (falsely drawn approval) or type II error (falsely drawn rejection). Approximately, one-third of the decisions to award a fellowship to an applicant show a type I error, and about one-third of the decisions not to award a fellowship to an applicant show a type II error. Our analyses of possible reasons for these errors show that the applicant's field of study but not personal ties between the B.I.F. applicant and the B.I.F. can increase or decrease the risks for type I and type II errors.

Here, we report the findings of a meta-analysis of 21 studies providing, to the contrary, evidence of robust gender differences in grant award procedures. Even though the estimates of the gender effect vary substantially from study to study, the model estimation shows that all in all, among grant applicants men have statistically significant greater odds of receiving grants than women by about 7%.

A critical review of the literature Source: JOURNAL OF INFORMETRICS, 1 (3): 239-248 JUL 2007 Language: English Document Type: Review Author Keywords: open access; citation analysis; early view; quality bias Abstract: The last few years have seen the emergence of several open access options in scholarly communication which can broadly be grouped into two areas referred to as 'gold' and 'green' open access (OA). In this article we review the literature examining the relationship between OA status and citation counts of scholarly articles. Early studies showed a correlation between the free online availability or OA status of articles and higher citation counts, and implied causality without due consideration of potential confounding factors. More recent investigations have dissected the nature of the relationship between article CA status and citations. Three non-exclusive postulates have been proposed to account for the observed citation differences between OA and non-OA articles: an open access postulate, a selection bias postulate, and an early view postulate. The most rigorous study to date (in condensed matter physics) showed that, after controlling for the early view postulate, the remaining difference in citation counts between OA and non-OA articles is explained by the selection bias postulate. No evidence was found to support the OA postulate per se; i.e. article OA status alone has little or no effect on citations. Further studies using a similarly rigorous approach are required to determine the generality of this finding. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Title: The ups and downs of journal impact factors Source: ANNALS OF OCCUPATIONAL HYGIENE, 52 (2): 73-82 MAR 2008 Language: English Document Type: Editorial Material Author Keywords: citations; journal impact factor; journal quality; research assessment Keywords Plus: POLYCYCLIC AROMATIC-HYDROCARBONS; EXPOSURE-ASSESSMENT; OCCUPATIONAL-EXPOSURE; QUARTZ HAZARD; HEALTH; ENVIRONMENT; FUTURE; INDEX Abstract: The journal impact factor (JIF) for The Annals of Occupational Hygiene rose 68% between 2005 and 2006. JIFs are widely publicized and may influence subscriptions and where authors submit papers, so they are much discussed in the publishing world. But although they tell us something about a journal's citation performance, their shortcomings mean that they are poor general indicators of journal quality, and worse guides to the quality of authors and their institutions. The shortcomings include the following. (i) The two cited years may completely misrepresent the total current citation rate for the journal. (ii) The short citation period (1 year) results in many papers not contributing to the JIF, and usually two- thirds or more of the JIF depend on the most-cited 25% of papers. (iii) The JIF of the journal where a paper is published is therefore a very poor guide to the paper's citation performance or the success of the author. Citation counts more specific to the author are much better. (iv) The JIF depends strongly on the subject of the journal, even within the published categories. (v) Statistical analysis shows that the relative standard deviation of year-to-year variation of a JIF for a journal with a JIF similar to 1.5 is likely to be between 10 and 20%, on top of any longer trend. Quotation of JIFs to three decimal places is therefore meaningless, and, for a journal like Annals of Occupational Hygiene, a single annual change of 70% could easily be due to a chance shift from a negative to positive fluctuation. (vi) The citations counted are not only of individual papers, so it is difficult to reproduce the JIF calculation. (vii) The selection of journals has been criticized, for example, the alleged emphasis on American- or English-language publications. This journal's JIF does not noticeably influence the number of papers submitted to this journal, although it may influence some important authors. JIFs in our field seem to be increasing by similar to 5% a year, perhaps partly because of the various measures which editors can take to improve them, some of which represent genuine improvements to the journal, but some of which are unethical.

The observations revealed that most of the researchers used Google for everything, that they were confident that they could manage on their own, and that they relied heavily on immediate access to electronic information. They had very little contact with the library, and little knowledge about the value librarian competence could add. One important conclusion of the project is that librarians have to leave the library building and start working in the research environment, as well as putting some thought into the fact that library use is considered complicated, but Google (etc.) is easy. The findings of this project will influence changes in library services in both near and in a more distant future.

Most prior studies simply compared articles within the same journals and years that were and were not made OA by being self-archived by their authors. The ideal study would be one that randomly *imposed* self-archiving on articles from within the same journals and years, and compared it with unimposed self-archiving for the same journals and years. This forthcoming study seems to do only half of this. A potential problem with assessing the effects of self-archiving on citations is, of course, the "self": Authors self-select to self-archive (some authors -- c. 15% -- do it, most don't), and authors can also self-select which of their papers they self-archive. Hence this leaves open the possibility that self-archived papers (and authors) are self-selected to be the better ones. And then the question is: What proportion of the enhanced citations of self-archived papers occurs because of OA and what percentage is because of self-selection? A study that imposes the OA self-archiving randomly could help answer this question. But a potential problem of this forthcoming study is time-scale and sample-size. The published findings on the higher citations for OA self-archived articles (e.g. Hajjem et al 2005) are based on hundreds of thousands of articles, in thousands of journals, across a number of fields, across a number of years. The effects are always the weakest in the first year or two after publication (depending on field), before the citations have had a chance to grow. During that early period, it is downloads rather than citations that reflect the OA advantage -- and downloads have been shown to be correlated with, and predictive of, later citations (Brody et al 2006): > Preliminary results from 11 journals published by the American Physiological > Society indicate an increase in article downloads, although many of these > downloads are attributable to indexing robots. The articles are currently > between 11 and 14 months old and we see no citation advantage. In fact, the > randomly selected OA articles received slightly fewer citations, although > this result is non-significant. > > Our paper is currently in review and should be made public shortly. This profile (i.e., no difference) is perfectly compatible with the conclusion that the sample was too small and the time-span was too short to have picked up any effects at all. It is comparing apples and oranges unless there is a control group, in the same journal sample and year-span, consisting of self-selected, self-archived articles that *do* show the citation increase whose causes are here being tested. If an equal-sized sample of self-selected, self-archived articles from the same 11 journals, over the same 11-14 months, *did* show the citation increase, whereas the control sample with the self-archiving imposed did not, then we could make the inference that it is the self-selection that causes the citation increase. But with a small sample and a small time-span, and no difference, the most likely outcome is that neither group would yet show any citation advantage. (Some comparisons might possibly be made with the Eysenbach (2006) study, which was also based on a small sample sample -- a single very high-profile journal (PNAS) and about 1500 articles -- and a small time span. The OA/non-OA citation difference was found surprisingly early. There were two kinds of "self-archiving": most were done by PNAS on the (paying) authors' behalf, on the PNAS website; the other kind was done by (nonpaying) authors, on their own websites (or IRs). The lion's share of the early OA citation advantage was for the articles made OA on the PNAS site. But of course both kinds of OA self-archiving here were self-selected, rather than imposed. And the fact that the OA advantage was much bigger for the articles "self-archived" on the PNAS site suggests that the big early effect may have had something to do with being freely accessible at the much-consulted websites of one of the highest-citation journals of all.) > We conclude that the 'citation advantage' so widely promoted in the > literature is an artifact of other explanatory variables. These are rather big conclusions to draw from what seems to be a rather small study (that does not seem to control for the most important explanatory variable of all, which is unimposed self-selection, in the same sample and time-interval)! We are currently conducting a somewhat bigger study, comparing the size of the citation difference between self-archived and non-self-archived articles within the same journals and years for the four earliest of the institutions that mandate self-archiving. A mandate is not a guarantor that all articles will be self-archived; and mandates have not been around for that long either; but the prediction would be that if the self-archiving citation increase were all or mostly due to self-selection, then mandates should either reduce substantially, or eliminate the OA/non-OA difference, compared to the unmandated OA/non-OA difference. Our study compares the size of the self-archived/non-self-archived difference separately for mandated and unmandated self-archiving. Stay tuned. Brody, T., Harnad, S. and Carr, L.

(1) Phil himself gave us the bounds on his sample size: 11 physiological journals, 11-14 months. The order of magnitude difference between that and thousands of journals across a dozen disciplines, hundreds of thousands of articles, and a 10-year span is transparent. (2) It is rather hard to read a study when the study is not provided to read. (3) I like Phil's picturesque descriptor "front-self-promoting" for my response to his posting. But then what would his sobriquet be for publicly announcing -- not for the first time, but this time on the basis of unpublished findings (not provided) -- conclusions to the effect "that the 'citation advantage' so widely promoted in the literature is an artifact of other explanatory variables"? (And is that public announcement meant to be greeted with just stunned silence?) (4) The point was about comparing imposed vs. self-selected self-archiving on the same sample of 11 journals and the same 11-14-month time-span. If there is no self-selected self-archiving effect in the same sample, then the absence of an imposed self-archiving effect is meaningless: It's the sound of one hand clapping. If I have misunderstood what you posted, Phil, I'd be happy to hear/see more. Stevan Davis, P. M. and Fromerth, M. J.

This is the last edition of a series of bibliometric studies aimed to characterize the Spanish scientific performance in biomedicine. MATERIAL AND METHOD: The analysis was restricted to citable documents for which simple and composite bibliometric indicators were obtained at different aggregation levels: fields, autonomous regions, institutional sectors and research centres. The documents were selected according to the Journal Citation Reports, and were assigned to affiliation centres following an integer counting scheme after an exhaustive normalization of the affiliation addresses. RESULTS: Compared to the period 1994-2002, research activity in biomedicine grew as much as Spain: 8.9% in the number of documents; 22.5% citations; 12.5% citation per document average and 27.2% international cooperation. Besides, biomedicien showed the highest citation per document average compared to other major fields. International cooperation in biomedicine (27.2%) reached the European average. The documents published in international cooperation account for the half of citations to documents in biomedicine. The number of documents and citations belonging to the clinic medicine subfield and to the health sector showed the highest growth. CONCLUSIONS: In general, these results reproduce the tendencies described in prior studies. The documents in biomedicine showed a highly asymmetric distribution among institutional sectors, autonomous regions, scientific fields and research centres. The remarkably increase in the output of clinical medicine field and in the health sector could be the consequence of important science policy actions undertaken in these areas in the last years.

These rates have potential impact on academic promotions and funding decisions. Currently there are several different ways that citation rates are being calculated, with the state of the art indicator being the crown indicator. This indicator has flaws and improvements could be considered. An item oriented field normalized citation score average ((c) over bar (f)) is an incremental improvement as it differs from the crown indicatorin so much as normalization takes place on the level of individual publication (or item) rather than on aggregated levels, and therefore assigns equal weight to each publication. The normalization on item level also makes it possible to calculate the second suggested indicator: total field normalized citation score (Sigma c(f)). A more radical improvement (or complement) is suggested in the item oriented field normalized logarithm-based citation z-score average ((c) over bar (fz [ln]) or citation z-score). This indicator assigns equal weight to each included publication and takes the citation rate variability of different fields into account as well as the skewed distribution of citations over publications. Even though the citation z-score could be considered a considerable improvement it should not be used as a sole indicator of research performance. Instead it should be used as one of many indicators as input for informed peer review. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ISI convention allows only the retrieval of papers that cite works of which the author is first or sole author. Non-primary authors (authors whose name appear in second or later position) will not be counted when assembling a cocitation frequency matrix. Therefore, this has been a methodological issue in ACA study. This paper empirically examines the impact of the ISI convention on the results of ACA. Previous research has addressed and shed light on some parts of methodological issues, but failed to address issues such as to what extent the use of different approach has resulted in different outcomes in terms of actual intellectual structure of a given academic discipline. Using our data and cociation matrix generation systems, we compare the differences in the process and outcomes of using different cocitation matrices. Our study concludes that all author based ACA is better than first author based ACA to capture all influential researchers in a field. It also identifies more research subspecialties. Finally, all Author based ACA and first author based ACA produce little differences in stress values of MDS outputs. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

'GIS' and 'geographic information system' were used as keywords to search parts of titles, abstracts, or keywords. The published output analysis showed that GIS research steadily increased over the past 10 years and the annual paper production in 2006 was about three times 1997s paper production. There are clear distinctions among author keywords used in publications from the five most productive countries (USA, UK, Canada, Germany and China) in GIS research. Bibliometric methods could quantitatively characterize the development of global scientific production in a specific research field. The analytical results eventually provide several key findings.

Thus, investigators resort to external providers for conducting their research. To that end, the exchange may be formalised through material transfer agreements. In this context, industry, government and academia have their own specific expectations regarding compensation for the help they provide when transferring the research material. This paper assesses whether these contracts might have had an impact on visibility of researchers. Visibility is thereby operationalised on the basis of a bibliometric approach. In the sample utilised, researchers that availed themselves of these contracts were more visible compared to those who did not use them, controlling for seniority and co- authorship. Nonetheless, providers and receivers could not be differentiated in terms of visibility but by research sector and co- authorship. Being a user of these contracts might, to some extent, be the reflection of systematic differences in the stratification of science based on visibility. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

(2007). The estimation of the number of lost multi-copy documents: A new type of informetrics theory. Journal of Informetrics] introduce a simple probabilistic model to estimate the number of lost multi-copy documents based on the numbers of retrieved ones. We show that their model in practice can essentially be described by the well-known Poisson approximation to the binomial. This enables us to adopt a traditional maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) approach which allows the construction of (approximate) confidence intervals for the parameters of interest, thereby resolving an open problem left by the authors. We further show that the general estimation problem is a variant of a well-known unseen species problem. This work should be viewed as supplementing that of Egghe and Proot [Egghe, L., & Proot, G. (2007). The estimation of the number of lost multi-copy documents: A new type of informetrics theory. Journal of Informetrics]. It turns out that their results are broadly in line with those produced by this rather more robust statistical analysis. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The decline of 'revolutionary science' and the rise of 'normal science' in the UK compared with the USA MEDICAL HYPOTHESES, 70 (3): 465-472 2008 Message-ID: E-mail Address: editorMeHy at yahoo.com Author(s): Charlton, BG (Charlton, Bruce G.); Andras, P (Andras, Peter) Title: 'Down-shifting' among top UK scientists? The decline of 'revolutionary science' and the rise of 'normal science' in the UK compared with the USA Source: MEDICAL HYPOTHESES, 70 (3): 465-472 2008 Language: English Document Type: Editorial Material Keywords Plus: NOBEL-PRIZES; MEDICAL SCIENCE; BRAIN-DRAIN; INSTITUTIONS Abstract: It is sometimes asserted that UK science is thriving, at other times that it has declined. We suggest that both assertions are partly true because the UK is thriving with respect to the volume of 'normal' science production but at the same time declining in the highest level of 'revolutionary' science. Revolutionary science may be distinguished from normal science in that revolutionary science aims at generating qualitative advances which change the direction of established science, while 'normal' science aims at incremental progress extrapolating from established science. Revolutionary science has been measured by counting national numbers of science Nobel laureates and ISI Highly Cited (HiCi) scientists; normal science has been measured using the total volume of scientific publications and citations at both national and institutional levels. By these criteria the UK has been progressively catching-up with the USA in terms of normal science since the 1990s. At the same time the UK has declined in revolutionary science over recent decades by a significant brain drain of future Nobel laureates and HiCi scientists, and a sharply reduced success (both in absolute and compared with the USA) at winning science Nobel prizes. One possible cause for this pattern could be a time-lag, such that the UK's improved science production since about 1990 may eventually work-through into improved UK performance in revolutionary science. More pessimistically, this pattern may reflect a strategic down-shift of the best UK-resident scientists away from revolutionary science and towards less-ambitious and safer normal science which is more productive in the short term.

This paper proposes an alternative way to rank journals based on the publishing behavior of top-ranked authors. I justify this approach by depicting the scientific publishing market as following a matching process. Compared with the citation approach, the methodology that we propose has advantages in terms of time effort to produce national and subdiscipline rankings. It also corrects the impact underestimation that the citation approach tends to produce in new and re-founded journals. This paper proposes an empirical application to the case of public economics journals.

In particular results are presented based on a case study of 47 academic papers in a scientific field of study. The analysis includes inferences about the field of study based on the domain background knowledge derived from the ISO12207 software engineering standard. Additionally, a number of alternative classifications based on the target application language and the reported application size are introduced. FCA reveals useful insights about the nature of the subject matter: identifying fruitful areas of research as well as producing details about characteristics of the community under examination.

This contribution comments on Frances Woolley's recent Feminist Economics article, "The Citation Impact of Feminist Economics." It points to two avenues through which Woolley's article could have better illuminated the extent of Feminist Economics' scholarly relationship with the communities of both heterodox and mainstream economists: first, she omits several important heterodox economic journals in her study, and second, she could have offered a more critical evaluation of mainstream journals and economists relative to Feminist Economics and feminist economists. This paper uses citation data drawn from ten heterodox and ten mainstream journals to identify and build on these gaps.

To this end, ISI categories are used as units of analysis, co- citation as units of measure, and pruning algorithms to simplify the relationship between categories in the visualizations. The results show that from the macrostructure point of view, biomedicine and materials science research provide the basic nucleus at first. Over the years this nucleus is consolidated and expanded with agricultural and soil sciences research. From the microstructure perspective, an increase is observed in the number of interdisciplinary categories, which occupy central positions, indicating increased interaction between disciplines that have traditionally been more important or visible and those on the periphery, or less well known.

This paper proposes a novel method for co-ranking authors and their publications using several networks: the social network connecting the authors, the citation network connecting the publications, as well as the authorship network that ties the previous two together The new co-ranking framework is based on coupling two random walks, that separately rank authors and documents following the PageRank paradigm. As a result, improved rankings of documents and their authors depend on each other in a mutually reinforcing way, thus taking advantage of the additional information implicit in the heterogeneous network of authors and documents.

By using authors as the units of analysis and incorporating all the citations that are included in the Science Citation Index and the Social Science Citation Index, we trace the evolution of the intellectual structure of the strategic management field during the period 1980-2000. Using a variety of data analytic techniques such as multidimensional scaling, factor analysis, and Pathfinder analysis, we (1) delineate the subfields that constitute the intellectual structure of strategic management; (2) determine the relationships between the subfields; (3) identify authors who play a pivotal role in bridging two or more conceptual domains of research; and (4) graphically map the intellectual structure in two- dimensional space in order to visualize spatial distances between intellectual themes. The analysis provides insights about the influence of individual authors as well as changes in their influence over time. Copyright (C) 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

This paper proposes a citation analysis as a method of valuation on patent clusters having patent networks. A citation analysis is a method that examines the value of a patent on the basis of the number of citations of references. In particular, a co-citation analysis is used for coupling patents as the patent cluster and valuating the patent cluster. While the co-citation analysis is of great interest as a method of valuation, this analysis has not been fully examined and does not define any framework for a technology transition and patent strategy. Therefore, in this paper, the conventional co-citation analysis for evaluating the patent clusters is enhanced and frameworks for the technology transition and patent strategy are proposed by analysing citation routes in a co-citation analysis.

Title: HIV/AIDS in Nigeria: A bibliometric analysis Source: BMC INFECTIOUS DISEASES, 8: Art. No. 3 FEB 26 2008 Language: English Document Type: Letter Keywords Plus: EUROPEAN-UNION; AIDS Abstract: Background: Nigeria is home to more people living with HIV than any other country in the world, except South Africa and India- where an estimated 2.9 million [ 1.7 million - 4.2 million] people were living with the virus in 2005. A systematic assessment of recent HIV/ AIDS research output from Nigeria is not available. Without objective information about the current deficiencies and strengths in the HIV research output from Nigeria, it is difficult to plan substantial improvements in HIV/ AIDS research that could enhance population health. The aim of this study was to analyse the trends in Nigeria's SCI publications in HIV/ AIDS from 1980 to 2006. Special attention was paid to internationally collaborated works that were identified based on the countries of the authors' affiliation. Methods: A bibliometric analysis regarding Nigeria HIV/ AIDS research was conducted in the ISI databases for the period of 1980 to 2006. An attempt was made to identify the patterns of the growth in HIV/ AIDS literature, as well as type of document published, authorship, institutional affiliations of authors, and subject content. International collaboration was deemed to exist in an article if any co- author's affiliation was located outside Nigeria. The impact factors in the 2006 Journal Citations Reports Science Edition was arbitrarily adopted to estimate the quality of articles. Results: Nigeria's ISI publications in HIV/ AIDS increased from one articles in 1987 to 33 in 2006, and the articles with international collaboration increased from one articles in 1980 to 16 in 2006. Articles with international collaboration appeared in journals with higher impact factors and received more citations. A high pattern of co- authorship was found. Over 85% of the articles were published in collaboration among two or more authors. The USA, as the most important collaborating partner of Nigeria's HIV/ AIDS researchers, contributed 30.8% of articles with international collaboration. Conclusion: Nigeria has achieved a significant increase in the number of SCI publications and collaborations in HIV literature from 1987 to 2005. There is need to challenge the status, scientists from Nigeria should forge multiple collaborations beyond historical, political, and cultural lines to share knowledge and expertise on HIV/ AIDS.

This paper tries to examine what these mean through a bibliometric study of IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management. As well as introducing bibliometric ideas, network analysis tools identify and explore central concepts covered by EM/MOT and their inter-relationships. Specific results to be presented will cover different levels of analysis and so show different dimensions which can be extracted form citation data: Co-word terms from article keywords used to identify themes Journal title co-citation network: link MOT to other disciplines Individual publications co-citation networks used to show concentrations of underlying themes and how they relate Citation patterns of publication titles show that MOT appears dominant in IEEE TEM and the discipline has a bridging role in integrating ideas from several distinct areas including innovation, NPD, strategy, organisation science and management science. The analysis further suggests that MOT essentially relates to the firm rather than policy. Addresses: Univ London, London, WC1E 7HU England.

Yet, the big number of existing journals makes it difficult to select the most suitable journal for publishing. In the last few years, many studies have been carried out on the quality of academic journals and produced one ranking after another. Also the field of tourism has seen a growing number of surveys on this subject. But do these rankings measure the quality of journals in a reliable way? The paper reports a pilot study on journal quality among a small group of experts in the field of tourism and leisure to produce a ranking of tourism journals. Theoretically, the ranking of journals is discussed by asking the following questions: What role do journal rankings play? May rankings reflect the overall quality of journals? Are indicators chosen in a reliable way? How accurate are journal lists compiled?.

Numerous debates in Human Geography have emerged to reflect upon how research assessment systems affect professional human geographers and whether or not anything truly positive has been achieved through these assessment systems. Within South African Human Geography similar debates have not to date been documented. Against this backdrop, the key objective of this investigation is to address the paucity of critical reflection upon South Africa's National Research Foundation's (NRF) rating system and to, assess the position of human geographers in this research "surveillance system". It is argued that the NRF rating system perpetuates the imposition, of the norms of distantly located rating schemes - principally the United Kingdom's Research Assessment Exercise (RAE) - upon the South African, academic imagination. In the process South African human geography is entrapped; either serving the theoretical needs of the disciplibe's Anglo-American heartland, or serving local needs and becoming an irrelevance to "international" human geography. Human geographies that can "make a difference" to both audiences is, it is argued, unlikely.

Title: Article and journal impact factor in various scientific fields Source: AMERICAN JOURNAL OF THE MEDICAL SCIENCES, 335 (3): 188-191 MAR 2008 Language: English Document Type: Article Author Keywords: research productivity; evaluation; research funding Abstract: Background: We tried to provide the scientific community with data to answer the following simple question: What proportion of publications in the various scientific fields is published in journals with impact factor above the median and mean values of the distribution of journal impact factor? Methods: We analyzed and compared the distribution of the impact factor data reduced to the unit of science publication, the article. We calculated the proportion of articles published in journals with impact factor above the journal mean impact factor, journal median impact factor, and article mean impact. Results: For all categories examined, at the article level, the mean impact factor was higher than the median (by 13.7% to 500% for the various scientific categories). The mean impact factor of journals was considerably lower than the mean impact factor of articles (by 0.3 to 6.4 units). The proportion of articles that were published in journals with impact factor above the journals' median impact factor was well above 50% in 17 of 19 scientific fields examined (all except mathematics and computer science). Significance: Our analysis shows that in most scientific fields examined, it is quite easier to publish an article in the top 50% of journals (based on impact factor calculations) than it is for the article to be included in the top 50% of published articles (based on the assumption made regarding the article' impact factor).

This is in contrary to its critical limitations, e.g., its marked variation across scientific disciplines. This study was conducted to describe, in both quantitative and qualitative terms, the contribution of Iranian universities and research institutes to biomedical publications in 2004 and to examine the possible effect of impact factor normalization by subject on their rankings. Methods: The Iranian biomedical articles were recruited from Thomson Science Citation Index Expanded and PubMed databases according to Thomson Scientific subject categorization of journals. Three subject-normalized impact factors were employed: rank-normalized impact factor, journal to field impact score, and standardized impact factor. Results: Tehran and Shiraz Universities of Medical Sciences and University of Tehran were the top three institutes regarding the sum of impact factor in 2004. On the basis of the mean crude impact factor, Sharif University of Technology, University of Shiraz, and Baqiyatollah University were ranked as the first to third. However, the subject normalization of impact factor made some considerable changes in impact factor-based rankings of research institutes. Conclusion: The Iranian scientific community and science development policy makers are recommended to employ subject-normalized impact factor, rather than crude impact factor, in quality assessment of biomedical research held in various academic and research institutes.

Message-ID: >From worshiping false idols and whether JCR data can be trusted--a recap!! M. Rossner, the Executive Editor of the Rockefeller Univ. Press journals (including J Exp. Med, J Cell Biol. And J. Gen . Physiol.) has recently expressed his dissatisfaction with the methods by which the journal impact factor is calculated. (1) Thomson Scientific posted a response to the Rossner article. (2) Subsequently, Ketchum and Crawford investigated his claims and came to the opposite conclusion.(3) In the interim Brumback published a provocative piece(4), which cited Rossner before having access to the Ketchum-Crawford analysis. Clearly journal impact factors have become a highly controversial issue. We have posted all of these references to the listserv and remind readers that the topic is open to comment from anyone who wishes to contribute to the discussion. The discourse is not helped by claims that JCR has not been transparent in the criteria used to select journals (5) and by such ill informed statements that ?JCR only covers a fraction of all the available biomedical journals(only 5,000 compared with over 33,000 that are indexed in Medline?.(6) Not withstanding the ?laws? or facts of concentration that have changed very little in the past five decades. In other words, a small number of journals account for the vast majority of substantive papers and an even larger percentage of the citations. (7) 1. Rossner, M.

Despite the increased entry of women into the medical profession over the past several decades, with women constituting half of the current medical school class,2 some have suggested that women may remain substantially underrepresented in senior leadership positions, including editorial positions at biomedical journals.3 Language: English Document Type: Letter Keywords Plus: ACADEMIC MEDICINE; INTERNAL-MEDICINE; MEN FACULTY; GENDER; SEX; PHYSICIANS; ATTITUDES; PROGRESS; BIAS Addresses: Univ Michigan Hosp, Dept Radiat Oncol, Ann Arbor, MI 48109 USA Reprint Address: Jagsi, R, Univ Michigan Hosp, Dept Radiat Oncol, 1500 E Med Ctr Dr,Room B2C490, Ann Arbor, MI 48109 USA.

Title: Impact factors and contact dermatitis Source: CONTACT DERMATITIS, 58 (4): 191-192 2008 Excerpt: Although Contact Dermatitis has had animpact factor since the early 1970s, the journal?s score rose dramatically after 2002 reaching to 2.701 in 2005 (10) and is currently sitting at 2.446 (9). There were presumably 2 reasons for this remarkable increase in such a short period of time. First, certain categories of articles were no longer being counted in the denominator upon which the impact factor calculation is based. Second, it can be assumed that this recent upsurge also reflects the rising importance of modern contact dermatitis research, not only for clinicians, but also for the wider community of scientific researchers and general citizens. As such, it remains to be seen what the next 30 years of impact factors will bring for the field of contact dermatitis.

The Web, we find, has had a profound impact on IS, driving the creation of new disciplines and revitalization or obsolescence of old, and most importantly, bridging the chasm between the "literatures" and "retrieval" IS camps. Simultaneously, the development of IS towards cognitive aspects has intensified. Our study enriches classic ACA in that it employs both orthogonal and oblique rotations in the factor analysis (FA), and reports both pattern and structure matrices for the latter, thus enabling a comparison between these several FA methods in ACA. Each method provides interesting information not available from the others, we find, especially when results are also visualized in the novel manner we introduce here.

Rafael.Lalive at unil.ch Author(s): Antonakis, J (Antonakis, John); Lalive, R (Lalive, Rafael) Title: Quantifying scholarly impact: IQp versus the Hirsch h Source: JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR INFORMATION SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY, 59 (6): 956-969 APR 2008 Language: English Document Type: Article Keywords Plus: INDEX; SCIENTISTS; RESEARCHERS; RANKING Abstract: Hirsch's (2005) h index of scholarly output has generated substantial interest and wide acceptance because of its apparent ability to quantify scholarly impact simply and accurately. We show that the excitement surrounding h is premature for three reasons: h stagnates with increasing scientific age; it is highly dependent on publication quantity; and it is highly dependent on field-specific citation rates. Thus, it is not useful for comparing scholars across disciplines. We propose the scholarly "index of quality and productivity" (IQp) as an alternative to h. The new index takes into account a scholar's total impact and also corrects for field-specific citation rates, scholarly productivity, and scientific age. The IQp accurately predicts group membership on a common metric, as tested on a sample of 80 scholars from three populations: (a) Nobel winners in physics (n = 10), chemistry (n = 10), medicine (n = 10), and economics (n = 10), and towering psychologists (n = 10); and scholars who have made more modest contributions to science including randomly selected (b) fellows (n = 15) and (c) members (n = 15) of the Society of Industrial and Organizational Psychology. The IQp also correlates better with expert ratings of greatness than does the h index.

These questions were investigated as part of a qualitative, interview-based study of citation behavior. A number of motivations were advanced by informants, including the desire for stylistic elegance, for informality, to make the text accessible to less informed readers, to mark a close relationship between citer and citee, to alert readers to a little known citee, and to acknowledge seminal sources. In a number of cases, however, informants were unable to offer any motivation, reporting that their behavior had been unconscious or accidental. The study underlines B. Cronin's (1984, 2005) argument that citation is a private and subjective process, and shows that interview- based studies afford the analyst insights into writers' citing practices which alternative methodologies cannot.

This seems even more pressing because few occupational therapy journals have an impact factor, which has become synonymous with quality. By surveying authors of papers in occupational therapy journals, this study aimed to determine their perceptions of indicators Of journal quality and ratings of 19 occupational therapy journals on these indicators and to have them provide a global rating for non-occupational therapy journals. Methods: Authors of papers in peer-reviewed occupational therapy journals between 2003 and 2005 were invited to complete an online survey. Of 554 authors, 184 (33%) responded. Most respondents were female (91%); over 40 years of age (78%); from the USA (29%), Canada (17%), Australia (16%), UK (16%) or Sweden (10%); had PhDs or professional doctorates (55%); and were academics (53%). The majority (63%) had published between 0 and two papers per year over the previous 3 years. Results: The top five quality indicators rated as very important were reputation/prestige of the journal, availability, rigour and quality of the manuscript review process, timeliness of review and publication, and impact on policy/practice. Six journals were rated high by respondents across most quality indicators (American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Australian Occupational Therapy Journal, British journal of Occupational Therapy, Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy, OTJR: Occupation, Participation and Health, and Scandinavian Journal of Occupational Therapy). Conclusions: The results are discussed in terms of promoting research and scholarship within academic institutions that are influenced by measures of research productivity and quality. Limitations of the study and recommendations for future research are included.

Title: Brazilian medical publications: citation patterns for Brazilian- edited and non-Brazilian literature Source: BRAZILIAN JOURNAL OF MEDICAL AND BIOLOGICAL RESEARCH, 39 (8): 997- 1002 AUG 2006 Language: English Document Type: Article Author Keywords: Brazilian medical journals; bibliometrics; citation patterns; Brazilian scientific journals Keywords Plus: JOURNALS; LANGUAGE; ENGLISH; PUBLISH Abstract: Today, the quality of a scientific article depends on the periodical in which it is published and on the number of times the article is cited in the literature. In Brazil, the criteria for the evaluation of this scientific production are improving. However, there is still some resistance, with authors arguing that Brazilian publications must be preferentially addressed to the national readers and, therefore, they should ideally be written in Portuguese. In order to determine the kind of scientific journals cited in the reference lists of articles published in medical periodicals edited in Brazil, in the present study we determine the rate of Portuguese/English citations. Three issues of 43 periodicals (19 indexed in SciELO, 10 in PubMed, 10 in LILACS, and 4 in the ISI- Thompson base) of different medical specialties were analyzed, and the number of both Portuguese and English citations in the reference list of each article was recorded. The results showed that in Brazilian-edited journals the mean number of citations/article was 20.9 +/- 6.9 and the percentage of citations of international non-Brazilian periodicals was 86.0 +/- 11.2%. Of the latter, 94.4 +/- 7.0 are indexed by ISI-Thompson. Therefore, we conclude that Brazilian medical scientists cite the international non-Brazilian periodicals more than the national journals, and most of the cited papers are indexed by ISI-Thompson.

In the Web environment, the approach of retrieving original citation data is often not feasible. In that case, one should use the Jaccard index, but preferentially after adding the number of total citations (i.e., occurrences) on the main diagonal. Unlike Salton's cosine and the Pearson correlation, the Jaccard index abstracts from the shape of the distributions and focuses only on the intersection and the sum of the two sets. Since the correlations in the co-occurrence matrix may be spurious, this property of the Jaccard index can be considered as an advantage in this case.

Using a simple search strategy, the Web of Science was analysed up to the end of 2005 to give a snapshot of the field, and to identify matters which would need to be considered in larger scale bibliometric studies. Of the 3673 telemedicine documents retrieved, 2213 (60%) had been cited. Of 56,875 citation records, 32,460 unique citation formats were found. The most-cited paper, and the paper with the greatest annual citation rate, was Perednia and Allen's review article in JAMA, 1995. The two specialist telemedicine journals published 40% of all papers retrieved. In the general literature (i.e. excluding the two specialist journals) there were 1556 citations to their 1374 'citable' articles, apportioned in the ratio 76:24, almost exactly in accordance with the distribution of the articles themselves. However, each of the two specialist telemedicine journals cited itself in a proportion higher than its share of original articles, with an 'excess' of self-citations of 14% in the journal of Telemedicine and Telecare, and 19% in the Telemedicine journal and E-Health. Despite certain technical difficulties, there is considerable scope for bibliometric research in telemedicine.

If the bid correctly reflects the paper?s quality, the author will be rewarded in this new scientific currency; otherwise, the author will lose this currency. We argue that citations are an appropriate currency for all scientists.1 We believe that citation auctions will encourage scientists to better control their submissions? quality. It will likely also inspire them to prepare more exciting talks for accepted papers and to invite discussion of their results at congresses and conferences and among their colleagues. In the long run, citation auctions could have the power to greatly improve scientific research. Author(s): de la Rosa, JL (de la Rosa, Josep Lluis); Szymanski, BK (Szymanski, Boleslaw K.)

This leads to community- specific assessments of scholarly impact that are difficult to generalize to the global scholarly community. In contrast, the ISI Impact Factor is based on citation data and thereby represents the global community of scholarly authors. The objective of this study is to examine the effects of community characteristics on assessments of scholarly impact from usage. We define a journal Usage Impact Factor that mimics the definition of the Thomson Scientific ISI Impact Factor. Usage Impact Factor rankings are calculated on the basis of a large-scale usage dataset recorded by the linking servers of the California State University system from 2003 to 2005. The resulting journal rankings are then compared to the Thomson Scientific ISI Impact Factor that is used as a reference indicator of general impact. Our results indicate that the particular scientific and demographic characteristics of a discipline have a strong effect on resulting usage-based assessments of scholarly impact. In particular, we observed that as the number of graduate students and faculty increases in a particular discipline, Usage Impact Factor rankings will converge more strongly with the ISI Impact Factor.

In addition, various aspects of the methodology of database coverage comparisons are discussed. Design/methodology/approach - Calculations of the overlaps between the journal lists of Web of Science and Scopus and some other major scientific databases are presented. Findings - The results provide some measures of the overall title coverage as well as the amount of unique material in the sources studied. Research limitations/implications - The journal title overlap calculations are based on journal lists provided by the database producers rather than searches in the databases themselves. Any inaccuracies in the lists may be reflected in the results. Also, the lists do not provide any information about the depth and consistency of the coverage. The nature of possible error sources is discussed. Originality/value - The methodology chosen allows comparatively quick comparisons between the contents of databases. This makes it suitable for analysis of trends in database coverage.

Existing conceptualizations and models of science have been created by scholars from very different disciplines and backgrounds. They have the form of * philosophical concepts (Bernal, Kuhn, Popper), * (utopian) stories (Wells, Lem), * visual drawings (Otlet), * empirical measurements (Price, Garfield), or * mathematical theories (Goffman, Yablonski) among others. It is our belief that a theoretically grounded and practically useful shared conceptualization of science can provide the intellectual framework to interlink and puzzle together the hundreds of science models in existence today. This is analogous to how meteorologists or seismologists integrate rather different local weather models or seismic hazard predictions into a global coherent model that has higher predictive value and broader coverage. With this issue we aim to start an interdisciplinary discourse towards a science of science models. The design of such a conceptualization requires the identification of the * Boundaries of the system or object. * Basic building blocks of science, e.g., units of analysis or key actors. * Interactions of building blocks, e.g., via coupled networks. * Basic mechanisms of growth and change. * Existing laws (static and dynamic). Ideally, the conceptualizations can be also presented in a visual form so that disciplinary and cultural boundaries can be bridged more easily. This issue invites contributions such as * Reviews of existing conceptualizations of the structure and evolution of science. Each paper should compare and contrast works from multiple authors. Here, we invite contributions by philosophers, sociologists and historians of science as well as scientometricians. * Historiographic and ethnographic work on how people understand and communicate the structure and dynamics of science via imagery and textual descriptions. Papers in this category should analyze a variety of approaches, including critiques on science conceptualizations. * Novel conceptualizations and empirically validated models of science and scientific communication. Please discuss epistemic assumptions and disciplinary roots, possible application domains, covered and omitted features of scientific evolution, and model interpretation. Work on 'ensemble models' that integrate different mathematical models to arrive at higher quality and broader coverage simulations of science are welcome. Authors are also welcome to discuss alternative paper proposals with the guest editors.

Title: Research note: Identifying the invisible colleges of the British journal of industrial relations: A bibliometric and social network approach Source: BRITISH JOURNAL OF INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS, 45 (4): 815-828 DEC 2007 Language: English Document Type: Article Abstract: The academic field of industrial relations has gone through much change in the last 20 years. On account of the rapid decline in union membership in the USA and the UK, industrial relations, which historically has focused on the employment relationship, has been searching for a new intellectual base. By conducting a bibliometric analysis of the journal British Journal of Industrial Relations (BJIR), we uncover the intellectual bases for that publication outlet for two time periods, 1986- 1995 and 1996-2005. From the late 1980s to the mid-1990s, BJIR's articles relied on the economics literature, while in the later period, it moved to the human resource and management journals, authors and articles. The possible explanations and implications of these findings are discussed.

Methods: A bibliometric study was carried out searching the PubMed database with a combined search strategy based on the keywords listed in the medical subject headings and a free text search. Only articles from a representative subset of 92 journals-accounting for 80% of papers identified-were selected for the analysis, and the resulting 13 240 abstracts were manually checked according to a list of basic inclusion criteria. The study evaluated the number of publications and the impact factor (mean and sum), absolute and normalized by country population and gross domestic product. Results: A total of 3842 citations were finally selected for the analysis. Thirty-seven percent came from the European Union (UK, Germany, Italy, France and Sweden ranking at the top), 31.6% from USA and 9.7% from Japan. The highest mean impact factor was reported for Canada (6.3), USA (5.9), Finland (5.8) and UK (5.2). Finland, Sweden and Israel had the best ratio between scientific production and available resources. 'Genetic polymorphism, glutathione transferase, breast neoplasm, risk factors, case-control studies and polymerase chain reaction' were the most used keywords in each of the subgroups evaluated, although inclusion criteria may have privileged studies dealing with exogenous carcinogens. Conclusion: Cancer molecular epidemiology is an expanding area attracting an increasing interest. The identification of an operative definition is a necessary condition to give to this discipline a unique scientific identity.

Bibliometric evaluations of undergraduate programs showed a better performance of the departments of Chemistry ( P < 0.001) and Biology ( P < 0.001) when compared to the departments of Physics and Mathematics and Psychology and Education. We also analyzed the scientific output of the six graduate programs of FFCLRP: Psychology, Psychobiology, Chemistry, Physics Applied to Medicine and Biology, Comparative Biology, and Entomology. The graduate program in Psychology presented a lower h-index ( P < 0.001) and had fewer papers indexed by the ISI web of science ( P < 0.001) when compared to the other graduate programs. The poorer performance of the Psychology program may be associated with the limited coverage by the Thompson Institute of Scientific Information database.

Methods: Fifty citations were identified in PubMed that had been indexed with the Medical Subject Heading 'Retracted Publication'. Next, the archives of LexisNexis's 'Major Newspapers' and EurekAlert's press releases were searched to find references to those retracted publications. Results: Newspaper articles addressed exactly three of the 50 retracted publications, and press releases, exactly four of the 50 retracted publications. All three retracted publications that received newspaper coverage also had a press release. In other words, newspapers only covered a retraction that had been introduced by a press release. Conclusion: One would expect that newspaper coverage would increase after a press release, but the suggested relationships among a medical journal article retraction, a press release and newspaper coverage should be further investigated. If the linkage suggested by the data of this study holds, and if newspaper coverage stimulates library patron interest, then a medical library might prepare itself for information requests following a press release.

Even though comparative assessments provide valuable information for research administrations, researchers and students such information is not available in South Africa currently. The Essential Science Indicators database of the Institute for Scientific Information is utilized for the investigation and six South African universities are identified to be included in the top 1% of the world's institutions cited in the international scientific literature. The identified institutions are University of Cape Town, University of Pretoria, Orange Free State University, University of Witwatersrand, University of Natal and University of Stellenbosch. Analysis of the scientific disciplines in which the South African institutions meet the threshold requirements for inclusion in the database shows that the country has citation footprints in only nine of the 22 broad scientific disciplines. The article identifies the international standing of the South African universities in the various scientific disciplines, and elaborates on the consequences relevant to higher education and science and technology policy.

Message-ID: Hi, Our research center needs to assess hundreds of applicants according to a number of different parameters - h-index, cumulative impact factor, first and last author (no. of papers and cumulative impact factor of these alone). Spefically, I'm looking for a database or program that can calculate the h-index AND an author's cumulative impact factor (using either the current impact factors of the respective journals, or ideally, those in the year of publication) at the same time. Even if the impact factor was listed for each publication individually, this would be a big help. Does anyone have any ideas on this? For me, this isn't really an issue of what the best means of selecting the ideal candidates is - I'm just a minion in this selection process. Greetings, Ari Liebkowsky From dgoodman at PRINCETON.EDU Thu Apr 17 14:07:17 2008 From: dgoodman at PRINCETON.EDU (David Goodman) Date: Thu, 17 Apr 2008 14:07:17 -0400 Subject: Impact factors and h-index returned in search? In-Reply-To: <3161.141.42.91.134.1208449264.squirrel@webmail.charite.de> Message-ID: I would be very reluctant to use automated methods to assess individuals. What is best is to look up authors individually in Web of Science or Scopus, using human judgment to group the results, and then getting a list of papers and number of citations. If the applicants supply a list of papers in machine readable form, it might be possible to write a program to do the rest.

Currently, we input an author into WoK, weed out the incorrect publications (belonging to someone of the same name), which takes a lot of time, and generate the H-index. Then we have to determine the impact factor of each publication and add this up for a total impact factor. As all applicants have sent in their publication lists, it's easiest to do this by hand - at least you don't have to go through through the weeding out process. What I'm looking for is a database where each author has a unique identifier, so publications belonging to someone with the same name are automatically weeded out. Each publication should be listed with its impact factor, so that these can be easily tallied. And of course, the database should provide automatic h-factor calculation.

The Institute for Scientific Information's impact factor measures the average number of citations to articles in a journal. Consequently, less-cited articles are credited for the impact that a few frequently cited articles had. Furthermore, the impact factor is only in regard to the citations received in the first 2 years after publication, whereas most articles may be cited only after that period. The authors tested the relevance of the impact factor as a measure of the scientific value of articles. Methods: The authors identified the 10 most-cited articles of four leading journals and calculated the pattern of their citations over the years. On the basis of the most significant change of regression coefficient in this pattern, they established the critical citable period and the number of citations received in the first 2 years as a fraction of the number of citations received during this period. Results: The citation distribution was skewed. The critical citable period was 16 years, in which articles gathered 61.3 percent of their total number of citations (range, 52.3 to 74.3 percent). The number of citations obtained in the first 2 years correlated well with the number of citations received in the critical citable period (Spearman rho = 0.60, p < 0.001), but only 2.5 percent of the latter number was gathered during the first 2 years (range, 1.2 to 4.0 percent). Conclusion: The impact factor is not an adequate indicator for the scientific relevance or impact of the individual articles the authors studied.

The first scientific journal devoted to spreading information and reporting new developments in social and legal medicine seemingly originated in Germany about 150 years ago. The official journal of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences (Journal of Forensic Sciences, JFS) was founded in 1956 and has enjoyed 50 years of scholarly publishing. The two leading European journals specializing in forensics are Forensic Science International (FSI) and International Journal of Legal Medicine (IJLM). Besides the size of the circulation, the readership numbers, the quality of the editorial staff and the peer-reviewers, the number of submitted and accepted manuscripts, considerable interest has focused on the journal's impact factor as a measure of prestige. The 2006 impact factor of a certain journal is derived by counting the number of citations in 2006 to all material published in the journal in the previous 2 years (2004 and 2005) and dividing this total by the number of citable items (articles and reviews) published in the same 2 years. Impact factors for several thousand scientific journals are compiled and published by a company called Thomson Institute for Scientific Information (Thomson ISI) and are available on-line via the database Journal Citation Reports. Forensic journals are grouped within the subject category Medicine, Legal, which currently comprises nine journals a few of which are seemingly unrelated to mainstream forensics. The top-ranked forensic journal in terms of its impact factor was IJLM with a score of just over 2.0 in 2004. This means that the average article published in 2003 and 2002 was cited twice per year in the 2-year window after publication. Impact factors of forensic journals are fairly low in comparison with many other disciplines, probably because of the small size of the field, fewer active researchers and less pressure to publish. The relatively low impact factors of forensic journals should be less of a concern than ensuring that manuscripts receive a rigorous and preferably an open peer-review prior to acceptance for publication. The information, conclusions and opinions published in forensic science journals might one day be proffered as evidence in criminal or civil litigation. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

To justify these expenditures, some measure of the return on investment would be useful, particularly one aligned with the intended ultimate outcome of this scientific effort: the amelioration of disease. The current mode of reporting on the success of medical research is output based, with an emphasis on measurable productivity. This approach falls short in many respects and may be contributing to the well-described efficacy-effectiveness gap in clinical care. The author argues for an outcomes-based approach and describes the steps involved, using an adaptation of the logic model. A shift in focus to the outcomes of our work would provide our funders with clearer mission-central return-on- investment feedback, would make explicit the benefits of science to an increasingly skeptical public, and would serve as a compass to guide the scientific community in playing a more prominent role in reducing the efficacy-effectiveness gap. While acknowledging the enormous complexity involved with the implementation of this approach on a large scale, the author hopes that this essay will encourage some initial steps toward this aim and stimulate further discussion of this concept.

Hi Peter, I am forwarding your post instead to the Sigmetrics list: SIGMETRICS at LISTSERV.UTK.EDU This interesting article finds that there are a number of metrics immediately upon publication that predict citations two years later (using multiple regression analysis). 1274 articles from 105 journals published from January to June 2005, randomly divided into a 60:40 split to provide derivation and validation datasets. 20 article and journal features, including ratings of clinical relevance and newsworthiness, routinely collected by the McMaster online rating of evidence system, compared with citation counts at two years. The derivation analysis showed that the regression equation accounted for 60% of the variation (R2=0.60, 95% confidence interval 0.538 to 0.629). This model applied to the validation dataset gave a similar prediction (R2=0.56, 0.476 to 0.596, shrinkage 0.04; shrinkage measures how well the derived equation matches data from the validation dataset). Cited articles in the top half and top third were predicted with 83% and 61% sensitivity and 72% and 82% specificity. Higher citations were predicted by indexing in numerous databases; number of authors; abstraction in synoptic journals; clinical relevance scores; number of cited references; and original, multicentred, and therapy articles from journals with a greater proportion of articles abstracted. Conclusion: Citation counts can be reliably predicted at two years using data within three weeks of publication. This finding reinforces the importance of taking into account as many predictor metrics as possible, though a number of the metrics do seem specific to clinical medical articles. The (apparently already known) high correlation with physician ratings for clinical relevance is a variable specific to this field. (The metrics used are listed at the end of this message.) We might perhaps make a distinction between static and dynamic metrics. This study was based largely on static metrics, in that they are fixed as of the day of publication. Dynamic metrics like early downloads (which have also been found to predict later citations) were not included (the Perneger study was cited but the Brody et al study was not), nor were early citation growth metics (also predictive of later citations).

Journal of the American Association for Information Science and Technology (JASIST) 57(8) pp. 1060-1072. http://eprints.ecs.soton.ac.uk/10713/ Journal impact factor was not included either, because it was not available for a large number journals in the sample. To my mind, the article reinforces the importance of validating all these metrics, not just against one another, but against peer evaluations, in all fields, as in the RAE 2008 database: Harnad, S.

The rankings are based on standardized page counts of articles published in these journals over the stated period. In the case of n joint authors, each author was assigned 1/n of the publication credit. The page count for each article was standardized according to the average number of characters published on one page of the respective journals and by the publishing journal's impact factor, which measures a journal's impact on the profession.

Academia, however has changed dramatically in the last few decades: it has become larger and more demographically diverse, and fears of overspecialization prompt calls for interdisciplinary approaches. In this new environment, other factors, in addition to productivity, are likely relevant to our understanding of earnings differentials. In this article, I assess whether two additional factors-visibility and the extent of research specialization-contribute to men earning advantage. Using probability samples of tenure-track academics in two disciplines, a variety of data sources, and innovative measures, I find that both factors are highly relevant to the process by which earnings are determined. Women earn less than men largely because they specialize less. Lower levels of specialization hinder productivity, productivity enhances visibility, and visibility has a direct, positive, and significant effect on salary. I discuss the practical implications of these findings and lay the foundation for a broader theory of the role of research specialization in work processes.

Its a brief comparison of Journal Citation Report and SCImago Journal & Country Rank, and between the most important indicators both presented: the Impact Factor and the SCImago Journal Rank.

Part III: Scientific journals Source: JOURNAL OF REHABILITATION MEDICINE, 39 (4): 308-322 MAY 2007 Language: English Document Type: Article Author Keywords: rehabilitation; disability; journals; periodicals Keywords Plus: MULTIPLE-SCLEROSIS; MEDICINE; DISABILITY Abstract: Objective: The variety of human functioning and rehabilitation research makes it difficult to overview the whole area with respect to journals, societies and conferences of potential relevance to a research question in focus. The objective of this paper is thus to provide an outline of scientific journals, societies and conferences of major relevance to human functioning and rehabilitation research. Methods: Asystematic search for journals relevant to human functioning and rehabilitation research was performed. The resulting journal list was used to identify affiliated societies and conferences. In addition, an informal expert survey was conducted for the identification of further relevant societies, conferences and additional journals. Results: A total of 6416 journal articles referring to human functioning and rehabilitation research were identified and analysed. A total of 231 journals, 153 societies and 115 conferences relevant to human functioning and rehabilitation research were selected from the systematic search and the informal expert survey. The societies and conferences are published via the website of this journal. Conclusion: The list of journals presented will be of use to scientists entering human functioning and rehabilitation research or engaging in an interdisciplinary perspective. It may serve as an initial guide for identifying possibilities for the submission of publications, sources of scientific information and platforms for the scientific exchange and discourse.

Publications in international journals have become crucial and are increasingly used as an index of scientific productivity. Nevertheless, concrete definitions of the concept of international importance are rarely offered, resulting in terminological confusion. The present study attempted to resolve the situation by analyzing the international level of three Iberoamerican journals included in the Web of Science(R) according to the criteria of the internationality index. The present study provides a useful guide for journal editors who are seeking to increase the level of internationality in their journals.

We should recognise as well that the Impact Factor is not the be-all and end-all marker of a journal's quality. It is but one marker, and although it is probably the best marker we currently have, it is a marker which is more directed at on-going (citable) work than practioner-targeted work.

The aim of this project is ambitious, and the probability of this project to achieve great results in the field of science assessments is high. I think the correlation IF - SJR will be significant if we take into acount all the journals comprised in the SCImago Journal Rank (We had been developing some experimental studies in specific fields, and the correlation is alwais significant, for the moment ;-). Thats the reason because Dr. Falagas did not emphasize that point in our article. However, the analysis of the first 20 journals (as you noted) is an incentive in order to develop more deep studies of the indicators presented by the SCImago Research Group.

Falagas and his team from the Alpha Institute of Biomedical Sciences (Athens, Greece), and with the collaboration of Henry Dunant Hospital (Athens, Greece) and the Network of Scientometrics Studies for Higher Education (Havana, Cuba). Its a brief comparison of Journal Citation Report and SCImago Journal & Country Rank, and between the most important indicators both presented: the Impact Factor and the SCImago Journal Rank. These results are only the beginning of several works that I am sure will be developed in the near future in order to statistically compare both indicators.

In this article, we explore how Nordic sociology is represented on Google Scholar (GS), what its output and impact is, and what factors explain it. Our data consist of faculty in 16 Nordic sociology departments in March 2005. The distribution of their publications and citations is skewed. Thirteen per cent of scholars do not appear on GS, whereas only 15 per cent have more than 5 publications. Of scholars with at least 1 publication (n = 240), 75 per cent have at most 10 citations. Both the number of web hits (web visibility) and citations are influenced by the gender of the faculty member, type and age of publication. Web visibility, citations and position are mutually reinforcing. Departmental effect is greater in web visibility than citations. International publications have started to dominate the social sciences, international monographs being particularly frequently cited. The remaining salience of books shows that sociology is still a distinct form of knowledge. The exclusive use of refereed articles and direct comparisons with the natural sciences ignore important aspects of the social sciences. In all, while GS produces findings similar to those in citation databases such as the SSCI, some systematic differences exist. No individual method for measuring scientific output is objective.

The overwhelmingly Anglocentric character of 'international' economic geography is reaffirmed, as both journal publishing and the citation 'market' are dominated by authors from the UK, US and Canada. There is some evidence, however, that the field is beginning to internationalize, just as there are also indications that the reach of economic geography, qua 'exporter', is extending into other parts of the social sciences.

Can you perhaps provide me with the full list of the pageranks for 2006 or make it available on the Internet? Scimago does a very nice job in bringing their data online as an excel file. We could perhaps combine forces? I would expect the page-ranking algorithm to end-up more in the middle like the h-index because it pays attention to citations/publications, but it also might be sensitive to size-effects. You may be able to specify a more precise expectation. Is the page-rank algorithm available in one of the (non-commercial) programs of social network analysis?

Can you perhaps provide me with the full list of the pageranks for 2006 or make it available on the Internet? Scimago does a very nice job in bringing their data online as an excel file. We could perhaps combine forces? I would expect the page-ranking algorithm to end-up more in the middle like the h-index because it pays attention to citations/publications, but it also might be sensitive to size-effects. You may be able to specify a more precise expectation. Is the page-rank algorithm available in one of the (non-commercial) programs of social network analysis?

Would it be possible to bring the 47 metrics for these nearly 8,500 journals online (e.g., as an excel file)? Or can you send it? I might, for example, be interested in three (rotated) factors in the case of your data while you provide two (unrotated) prinicipal compontents. As expected, you found in this paper a clear distinction along the two principal components between usage-based and citation-based indicators. Let me recall the following figure from my paper " Visualization of the Citation Impact Environments of Scientific Journals: An online mapping exercise," (JASIST 58(1) (2007) 25-38), at p. 28: Figure 1: Component plot in rotated space (sources: JCR, 1993; Bensman, 2001; forthcoming; Bensman & Wilder, 1998). This figure is very similar to the one which I circulated yesterday evening, and based on Bensman's analysis of usage data in 1993 combined with JCR data for that same year. In my opinion, the model is the same as underlying your recent paper. On the first component ("size"), I found high loadings for both Bensman's indicators "Indiana University Chemistry Library" usage data and "Faculty Score". Interestingly, the values of the eigenvectors are almost similar to the ones which I found last night using 2006 data, notably: 59% for the size factor and 23% for the c/p factor (impact, etc.) against 25% last night. Extraction of a third factor (9.7%) separates the size-factor into two factors representing usage and size. (Figure based on 1993 data!; Source: Bensman, 2001, etc.) Thus, I would expect a three-factor solution to be more interesting than the extraction of two principal components. Would you mind to make your data public? I mean the table of 8,500 journals versus 47 metrics.

Material and Methods: The search was carried out in four international periodontal journals: Journal of Periodontology, Journal of Clinical Periodontology, International Journal of Periodontics and Restorative Dentistry and Journal of Periodontal Research. The Classics, that are articles cited at least 100 times, were identified using the Science Citation Index database. From every issue of the journals that contained a Classic, another article was randomly selected and used as a Control. Results: Fifty-five Classics and 55 Controls were identified. Classic articles were longer, used more images, had more authors, and contained more self-references than Controls. Moreover Classics had on the average a bigger sample size, often dealt with etiopathogenesis and prognosis, but were rarely controlled or randomized studies. Conclusions: Classic articles play an instructive role, but are often non- Controlled studies.

Scientific publications are golden eggs of an academic life and disseminate knowledge. These encourage discussion within the professional community and develop the scholarly base. The road to publication often seems complicated for newer authors. Therefore, the current academic based case study describes the right path of publishing a scientific manuscript in a right journal. This paper describes the experience and discusses the schooling that was learnt from the process of rejection and finally getting a paper into publication. A case study approach was adopted to facilitate the readers to understand the different influences on getting their paper in print. The present case of an academic study demonstrates that getting into print of a paper depends on a wide range of factors including the built-in importance of the research work, quality of the written text and selection of the appropriate academic journal.

The framework attempts to balance: our experiences as working scientists and technologists, our best current understanding of the social processes of knowledge production, and the possibility of mathematical analyses. It offers a potential approach both to improving our basic understanding, and to developing tools for enterprise management, of the knowledge-production process. Published by Elsevier B.V.

This study addresses that broad question with a bibliometric analysis of academic literature on Internet advertising. By examining most-cited authors and papers, as well as co-citation patterns, a general picture of the field can be drawn. This analysis sets a baseline that will enable future scholars to see where the field of Internet advertising research began and trace its shift over time.

About 60% or about 50,000 of the NSE-related patents identified by "full- text" keyword searching between 1976 and 2004 at the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) have an average of approximately 18 academic citations. The most cited academic journals, individual researchers, and research articles have been evaluated as sources of technology innovation in the NSE area over the 28-year period. Each of the most influential articles was cited about 90 times on the average, while the most influential author was cited more than 700 times by the NSE-related patents. Thirteen mainstream journals accounted for about 20% of all citations. Science, Nature and Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) have consistently been the top three most cited journals, with each article being cited three times on average. There is another kind of influential journals, represented by Biosystems and Origin of Life, which have very few articles cited but with exceptionally high frequencies. The number of academic citations per year from ten most cited journals has increased by over 17 times in the interval (1990-1999) as compared to (1976-1989), and again over 3 times in the interval (2000- 2004) as compared to (1990-1999). This is an indication of increased used of academic knowledge creation in the NSE-related patents.

Our results indicate the probability of becoming a management laureate is enhanced by (a) receiving a doctoral degree from a prestigious university under the tutelage of an accomplished scholar, (b) seeking out and affiliating with a hot group at the beginning of one's career, (c) devoting a majority of one's energy to research; and (d) pursuing a research agenda with long-term implications, as reputations are rarely established early in one's career.

The purpose of this study is to compare citation patterns in the clinical binocular vision literature of optometry and ophthalmology. Methods. The author conducted citation analysis of two current clinical binocular vision textbooks from optometry and two from ophthalmology and of articles published in the years 2000 to 2004 in optometry and ophthalmology journals. Topical parameters for inclusion of sources were diagnosis and management of nonstrabismic binocular vision disorders, diagnosis and management of nonpresbyopic ocular accommodation disorders, and procedures for examining such conditions. These topical parameters were chosen because they are areas in which the diagnostic procedures and treatment options available to members of the two professions are not delineated by their respective scopes of practice. Results. The most frequently cited journals in the optometric publications were optometry journals (63% of citations in the optometry textbooks and 58% in the optometry journal articles). The most frequently cited journals in the ophthalmology publications were ophthalmology journals (79% of citations in the ophthalmology textbooks and 49% in the ophthalmology journal articles). Each discipline also cited a greater variety of journals from within its own field than was cited by the other discipline. The journal with the highest total number of citations was Optometry and Vision Science (280) followed by Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics (73), American Journal of Ophthalmology (68), Investigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science (62), and Optometry (61). Conclusions. Optometry and ophthalmology sources show more citations to materials from their own discipline than from their fellow discipline in the area of nonstrabismic binocular vision disorders and nonpresbyopic accommodative disorders. Reasons may include lack of awareness of the literature of the other discipline, bias toward the literature of one's own discipline, or bias against the literature of another discipline. It is also likely that the diagnostic and management strategies of the two professions are significantly different, although scope of practice would not constrain the range of strategies for the conditions chosen as the topical matter for consideration in this study. The journals found to be most frequently cited in this study should help to identify the core journals in this area of clinical binocular vision.

There is clearly something else going on in the data that the authors are unable to model, as the distribution of the outliers should be equally dispersed around the zero line. Some of the data transformations in this paper are unorthodox (like taking square root instead of natural log) and have have no theoretical basis. Since they have a lot of zeros in their dataset, a Negative Binomial Regression model may have been a better choice than a linear model. I'm surprised the reviewers of this article (or the staff statistician at BMJ) didn't see Figure 2 as a red flag that their model was problematic. Notice that they defined any article that received more than 150 citations as an 'outlier' and threw it out for the simple reason that it reduced the power of their prediction -- this reinforced the notion that their model is problematic! Still, the key message in this article -- that characteristics of an article (like article length, number of authors, etc.) can predict citations is not new (see Stewart, 1983). The authors don't seem to be aware of the field of bibliometrics from a quick glance of their bibliography. Stewart, J. A. (1983).

Hi Peter, I am forwarding your post instead to the Sigmetrics list: SIGMETRICS at LISTSERV.UTK.EDU This interesting article finds that there are a number of metrics immediately upon publication that predict citations two years later (using multiple regression analysis). 1274 articles from 105 journals published from January to June 2005, randomly divided into a 60:40 split to provide derivation and validation datasets. 20 article and journal features, including ratings of clinical relevance and newsworthiness, routinely collected by the McMaster online rating of evidence system, compared with citation counts at two years. The derivation analysis showed that the regression equation accounted for 60% of the variation (R2=0.60, 95% confidence interval 0.538 to 0.629). This model applied to the validation dataset gave a similar prediction (R2=0.56, 0.476 to 0.596, shrinkage 0.04; shrinkage measures how well the derived equation matches data from the validation dataset). Cited articles in the top half and top third were predicted with 83% and 61% sensitivity and 72% and 82% specificity. Higher citations were predicted by indexing in numerous databases; number of authors; abstraction in synoptic journals; clinical relevance scores; number of cited references; and original, multicentred, and therapy articles from journals with a greater proportion of articles abstracted. Conclusion: Citation counts can be reliably predicted at two years using data within three weeks of publication. This finding reinforces the importance of taking into account as many predictor metrics as possible, though a number of the metrics do seem specific to clinical medical articles. The (apparently already known) high correlation with physician ratings for clinical relevance is a variable specific to this field. (The metrics used are listed at the end of this message.) We might perhaps make a distinction between static and dynamic metrics. This study was based largely on static metrics, in that they are fixed as of the day of publication. Dynamic metrics like early downloads (which have also been found to predict later citations) were not included (the Perneger study was cited but the Brody et al study was not), nor were early citation growth metics (also predictive of later citations).

Since they have a lot of zeros in their dataset, a Negative Binomial Regression model may have been a better choice than a linear model. I'm surprised the reviewers of this article (or the staff statistician at BMJ) didn't see Figure 2 as a red flag that their model was problematic. Notice that they defined any article that received more than 150 citations as an 'outlier' and threw it out for the simple reason that it reduced the power of their prediction -- this reinforced the notion that their model is problematic! Still, the key message in this article -- that characteristics of an article (like article length, number of authors, etc.) can predict citations is not new (see Stewart, 1983). The authors don't seem to be aware of the field of bibliometrics from a quick glance of their bibliography. Stewart, J. A. (1983). Achievement and Ascriptive Processes in the Recognition of Scientific Articles. Social Forces, 62(1), 166-189. --Phil Davis Stevan Harnad wrote: Hi Stevan: Yesterday I tried to send the message below to the OACI list. But I got an error message suggesting that the list has been discontinued. Instead of predicting citations from early downloads, as you've done, this team predicts citations from properties of the article. Prediction of citation counts for clinical articles at two years using data available within three weeks of publication: retrospective cohort study, BMJ, February 21, 2008. http://dx.doi.org/10.1136/bmj.39482.526713.BE Conclusion: Citation counts can be reliably predicted at two years using data within three weeks of publication. Hi Peter, I am forwarding your post instead to the Sigmetrics list: SIGMETRICS at LISTSERV.UTK.EDU This interesting article finds that there are a number of metrics immediately upon publication that predict citations two years later (using multiple regression analysis). 1274 articles from 105 journals published from January to June 2005, randomly divided into a 60:40 split to provide derivation and validation datasets. 20 article and journal features, including ratings of clinical relevance and newsworthiness, routinely collected by the McMaster online rating of evidence system, compared with citation counts at two years. The derivation analysis showed that the regression equation accounted for 60% of the variation (R2=0.60, 95% confidence interval 0.538 to 0.629). This model applied to the validation dataset gave a similar prediction (R2=0.56, 0.476 to 0.596, shrinkage 0.04; shrinkage measures how well the derived equation matches data from the validation dataset). Cited articles in the top half and top third were predicted with 83% and 61% sensitivity and 72% and 82% specificity. Higher citations were predicted by indexing in numerous databases; number of authors; abstraction in synoptic journals; clinical relevance scores; number of cited references; and original, multicentred, and therapy articles from journals with a greater proportion of articles abstracted. Conclusion: Citation counts can be reliably predicted at two years using data within three weeks of publication. This finding reinforces the importance of taking into account as many predictor metrics as possible, though a number of the metrics do seem specific to clinical medical articles. The (apparently already known) high correlation with physician ratings for clinical relevance is a variable specific to this field. (The metrics used are listed at the end of this message.) We might perhaps make a distinction between static and dynamic metrics. This study was based largely on static metrics, in that they are fixed as of the day of publication. Dynamic metrics like early downloads (which have also been found to predict later citations) were not included (the Perneger study was cited but the Brody et al study was not), nor were early citation growth metics (also predictive of later citations).

This Article argues that independent invention should be a defense, provided the independent inventor creates the invention before receiving actual or constructive notice that someone else already created it. The defense reduces wasteful duplication of effort and enhances dissemination of inventions without lowering the incentive to invent below the necessary minimum. To be sure, the defense lowers the incentive for inventions that face significant odds of being invented by more than one inventor By enabling a second inventor to compete with a first inventor the defense essentially breaks up the first inventor's patent monopoly into a duopoly. Monopoly profits exceed the collective profits of duopoly. Thus, from the perspective of inventors ex ante the defense reduces the expected profit for inventions that could be invented by more than one inventor This Article argues, however that the reduction in expected profit is moderate and that the reduced expected profit is generally sufficient. Per Bayes' theorem, the fact that an invention could be invented by more than one inventor is itself evidence that a moderately reduced expected profit will still motivate at least one inventor to create the invention without inefficient delay.

In this paper we examine known algorithms that are currently used for Link Analysis Ranking, and present their weaknesses over specific examples. We also introduce new alternative methods specifically designed for citation graphs. We use the SCEAS system as a base platform to introduce these new methods and perform a generalized comparison of all methods. We also introduce an aggregate function for the generation of author ranking based on publication ranking. Finally, we try to evaluate the rank results based on the prizes of 'VLDB 10 Year Award', 'SIGMOD Test of Time Award' and 'SIGMOD E. F. Codd Innovations A ward'. (C) 2006 Elsevier Inc.

Title: A bibliometric analysis of global trends of research productivity in tropical medicine Source: ACTA TROPICA, 99 (2-3): 155-159 OCT 2006 Language: English Document Type: Article Author Keywords: tropical medicine literature; 10 : 90 gap; International representation; bibliometrics; impact factor; research and development; research collaboration Keywords Plus: PUBLICATION; COUNTRIES; ARTICLES; DISEASES; SCIENCE; INDEXES; WORLD Abstract: The field of tropical medicine has a long history due to the significance of the relevant diseases for the humanity. We estimated the contribution of different world regions to research published in the main journals of tropical medicine. Using the PubMed and the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) "Web of Science" databases, we retrieved articles from 12 journals included in the "Tropical Medicine" category of the "Journal Citation Reports" database of ISI for the period 1995-2003. Data on the country of origin of the research were available for 11,860 articles in PubMed (98.1 % of all articles from the tropical medicine category). The contribution of different world regions during the studied period, as estimated by the location of the affiliation of the first author, was: Western Europe 22.7%, Africa 20.9%, Latin America and the Caribbean 20.7%, Asia (excluding Japan) 19.8%, USA 10.6%, Oceania 2.1%, Japan 1.5%, Eastern Europe 1.3%, and Canada 0.6%. The contribution of regions, estimated by the location of the affiliation of at least one author of the published papers (retrieved from the ISI database), was similar: Western Europe 36.6%, Africa 27.7%, Latin America and the Caribbean 24.4%, and Asia 23.3%. The mean impact factor of articles published in tropical medicine journals was highest for the USA (1.65). Our analysis suggests that the developing areas of the world produce a considerable amount of research in tropical medicine; however, given the specific geographic distribution of tropical diseases they probably still need help by the developed nations to produce more research in this field.

It is argued that such methods have, so far, not been able to illuminate the engineering side of technological trajectories. In order to fill this gap, a methodology proposed by Hummon and Doreian (1989) is used and extended to undertake a citation analysis of patents in the field of fuel cells.

The authors aim to answer this question by contrasting, synthesizing, and simultaneously testing three scientometric perspectives-universalism, social constructivism, and presentation-on the influence of article and author characteristics on article citations. They study all articles published in a sample of five major journals in marketing from 1990 to 2002 that are central to the discipline. They count the number of citations each of these articles has received and regress this count on an extensive set of characteristics of the article (i.e., article quality, article domain, title length, the use of attention grabbers, and expositional clarity) and the author (i.e., author visibility and author personal promotion). They find that the number of citations an article in the marketing discipline receives depends more on "what is said" (quality and domain) and "who says it" (author visibility and personal promotion) than on "how it is said" (title length, the use of attention grabbers, and expositional clarity). The insights gleaned from this analysis contribute to the marketing literature and are relevant to scientific stakeholders, such as the management of scientific journals and individual academic scholars, as they strive to maximize citations. They are also relevant to marketing practitioners; they inform practitioners on characteristics of the academic journals in marketing and their relevance to decisions they face. Conversely, the insights also raise challenges regarding how to make journals accessible and relevant to marketing practitioners: (1) Authors visible to academics are not necessarily visible to practitioners; (2) the readability of an article may hurt academic credibility and impact, but it may be instrumental in influencing practitioners; and (3) it remains questionable whether articles that academics assess to be of high quality are also managerially relevant.

We aimed to investigate whether preferential citation of statistically significant articles exists in the psychiatric literature. Study Design and Settings: We analyzed all original research papers published in 1996 in four psychiatric journals. Using a standardized questionnaire, from each paper, we extracted the primary outcome and its statistical significance. The number of citations, excluding authors' "self-citations," received by April 2005 was obtained. Regression analysis was used to relate citation frequency to statistical significance, adjusting for confounders. Results: Of 448 extracted papers, 368 used statistical significance testing and 287 (77.8%) reported P < 0.05. The median number of citations for papers reporting "significant" and "nonsignificant" results was 33 vs. 16. After adjustment for journal, study design, reporting quality, whether outcome confirmed previous findings and study size, the ratio of the number of citations per article for articles reporting "P < 0.05" on the primary outcome to those reporting "P > 0.05" was 1.63 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.32, 2.02, P < 0.001). Conclusion: Authors cite studies based on their P-value rather than intrinsic scientific merit. This practice skews the research evidence. Systematic study registration and inclusion in meta-analysis should be encouraged. (c) 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

As all alternative to the Impact Factor of Thomson ISI, other indicators have been proposed, although none of them have achieved sufficient acceptance and widespread use to be systematically applied. Among Spanish initiatives, most notable are the Potential Impact Factor of The Spanish Medical Journals, developed by the Siniac team (Information systems and research activity indicators) from the Instituto de Historia de la Ciencia y Documentacion Lopez Pinero (Valencia, Spain), and the Indice de impacto de las revistas espanolas de ciencias sociales (In-Recs), developed by the EC3 research group at Library and Documentation department of Granada University (Spain).

More specifically, it examines for the field of nano-science and nano-technology whether researchers who both publish and patent are more productive and more highly cited than their peers who concentrate on scholarly publication in communicating their research results. This study is based on an analysis of the nano-science publications and nano-technology patents of a small set of European countries. While only a very few nano-scientists appear to hold patents in nano-technology, many nano-inventors seem to be actively publishing nano- science research. Overall, the patenting scientists appear to outperform their solely publishing (non-inventing) peers in terms of publication counts and citation frequency. However, a closer examination of the highly active and highly cited nano-authors points to a slightly different situation. While still over-represented among the highly cited authors, inventor-authors appear not to be among the most highly cited authors in that category, with a single notable exception. One policy implication is that, generally speaking, patenting activity does not appear to have an adverse impact on the publication and citation performance of researchers. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V.

Source: JOURNAL OF ENDOUROLOGY, 20 (12): 996-1001 DEC 2006 Language: English Document Type: Review Keywords Plus: SUBSEQUENT PUBLICATION; FULL PUBLICATION; MEETINGS; METAANALYSIS; ASSOCIATION; BIAS Abstract: Purpose: To estimate the acceptance rate of peer-reviewed journals, to describe the time course of subsequent full publication, and to identify those with characteristics associated with publication of the abstracts presented at the World Congress of Endourology (WCE). Methods: All abstracts accepted for presentation at the 2001 and 2002 WCE meetings were identified from the published supplements to the Journal of Endourology. The subsequent publication rate for the corresponding studies was evaluated by scanning MEDLINE for the 5-year period after the meetings. Results: Overall, 20.5% of the abstracts were followed by publication in peer-reviewed journals. Abstracts on transurethral, laparoscopic, and percutaneous procedures had the highest publication rates (25.5%, 25%, and 24.3%, respectively). Studies from North America had the highest publication rate (29.2%). The mean time to publication was 14.6 months. There was an 80% chance that an eventually published abstract was in print 2 years after presentation. The largest number of the reports were published in the Journal of Endourology (75 of 234; 32%), the official publication of the society that sponsors the WCE. Conclusions: Only one fifth of the abstracts presented at the WCE are ultimately published in peer-reviewed journals. Attendees should be aware of this limitation, and scientific committees should be encouraged to be more selective. Although presentation at major urological congresses constitutes an invaluable method for rapid scientific dissemination, abstracts contain data that usually are difficult to access and of questionable validity. In this respect, investigators are encouraged to publish their data.

Methods: A survey was conducted from August 2003 to January 2004. Ratings for 41 selected clinical neurology journals were obtained from 254 members of the World Federation of Neurology (1,500 solicited; response rate 17%). Participants provided demographic information and rated each journal on a 5-point Likert scale. Average ratings for all journals were compared with the ISI's journal impact factors. Ratings for each journal were also compared across geographic regions and respondent publication productivity. Results: The top 5 journals were rated much more highly than the others, with mean ratings greater than 4. Mean journal ratings were highly correlated with journal impact factors (r = 0.67). Most of the top 10 journal ratings were consistent across the subgroups of geographic regions and journal paper productivity. However, significant differences among the different geographical regions and respondent productivity groups were also found for a few journals. Conclusions: The results provide valuable insight on how neurological experts perceive journals in clinical neurology. These results will likely aid researchers and clinicians in identifying potentially desirable research outlets and indicate journal status for editors. Likewise, biomedical librarians may use these results for serials collection development.

Results show that while the current and the long-term impact factors have a high cot-relation coefficient, some fields are systematically slower-moving than others, as they often differ in the proportion of the overall impact through time that occurs in the short term.

Title: Predicting subsequent citations to articles published in twelve crime-psychology journals: Author impact versus journal impact Source: SCIENTOMETRICS, 69 (3): 499-510 DEC 2006 Language: English Document Type: Article Keywords Plus: SCIENTIFIC PRODUCTIVITY; EVALUATING RESEARCH; EMINENCE; SCIENCE Abstract: Four hundred and twenty-eight articles published in 12 crime- psychology journals during the 2003 calendar year were reviewed for subsequent citations in the Social Science Citation Index (SSCI). Fifteen potential predictors were reduced to nine after subjecting the 15 variables to a principal components analysis with varimax rotation. The nine predictors included author characteristics - gender, occupational affiliation (acadeinic-nonacademic), national affiliation (U.S.-other), citations per 2001-2002 first author publications - article characteristics collaboration (single author-multiple author), article length, reviews, subject matter (coffectioiis/criminology- legal/foreiisic) - and journal characteristics - journal impact. Negative binomial regression of the citations earned by these 428 journal articles in a 23 to 34 month follow-up (M = 28 months) revealed significant effects for citations per 2001-2002 first author publications, national affiliation, and review articles. These results suggest that author impact may be a more powerful predictor of citations received by a journal article than the periodical in which the article appears.

This paper offers some information about the criteria influencing the impact of publications on the (scientific) community. In opposite to the well known Impact Factor (journal sensitive) or the number of citations (article sensitive, publication year insensitive) the LPI helps to identify established and potential breakthrough contributions by considering the number of citations per year after publication, in a way which does not overestimate the few, highly cited, articles when performing averages. We discuss the effect of formal criteria on the LPI. Addresses: ETH, Dept Mat, CH-8093 Zurich, Switzerland Reprint Address: Kroger, M, ETH, Dept Mat, CH-8093 Zurich, Switzerland.

A social network is a set of people (or organizations or other social entities) connected by a set of social relationships, such as friendship, co-working or information exchange. Social network analysis focuses on the analysis of patterns of relationships among people, organizations, states and such social entities. Social network analysis provides both a visual and a mathematical analysis of human relationships. Web can also be considered as a social network. Social networks are formed between Web pages by hyperlinking to other Web pages. In this paper a state of the art survey of the works done on social network analysis ranging from pure mathematical analyses in graphs to analyzing the social networks in Semantic Web is given. The main goal is to provide a road map for researchers working on different aspects of Social Network Analysis. Addresses: Sharif Univ Technol, Web Intelligence Res Lab, Dept Comp Engn, Tehran, Iran.

According to the unique characteristics of the Web, which are huge, rapidly growing, high dynamic, and untrustworthy, we propose a novel link-based similarity measure called PageSim. Based on the strategy of PageRank score propagation, PageSim is efficient, scalable, stable, and 'fairly" robust, and therefore is applicable to the Web. We present intuitions behind the PageSim model, and outline the model with mathematical definitions.

Mitu) Title: Ranking judges according to citation bias (as a means to reduce bias) Source: NOTRE DAME LAW REVIEW, 82 (3): 1279-1309 MAR 2007 Language: English Document Type: Article Abstract: In our Essay, we put forward a methodology to assess the amount of political bias that affects judges based on the decisions judges make on whom to cite in their opinions. Unlike prior studies looking at judicial bias that focus on judicial voting outcomes, our study of bias in citation practices is aimed at uncovering more subtle forms of bias. Judges may shy away from acting overly biased when making a highly visible decision such as voting in a particular case, but instead seek to shift the law more subtly through their reasoning and citation patterns in the opinion, thereby affecting future precedent. Using a unique dataset of the citation patterns contained in federal circuit court decisions from 1998 to 1999, we provide a preliminary ranking of judges based on political bias. Our Essay makes the normative case for ranking judges based on political bias. Judges may aim to act without bias (or at least want the public to perceive judges as unbiased). But their predispositions likely result in biases. If judges can be made aware of biased behavior, when measured systematically over a large set of cases, we argue that judges will endeavor to reduce their level of bias. Demonstrating themselves as less biased may improve the judges? chances of future promotion and also improve their standing among their peers and the public.

Design/methodology/approach - A semantic vocabulary - COAP - is constructed, deployed on top of the Resource Description Framework (RDF), by extending the Friend-of-a-Friend (FOAF) schema. Findings - An extension of the FOAF vocabulary is considered as the ability to describe a publication record such as this paper in terms of scholar contributions and participations. In order to achieve that, the FOAF vocabulary is extended. Practical implications - The application of this semantic vocabulary could be used as a way of enhancing the accuracy of source data for bibliometric evaluation instruments. Originality/value - The paper discusses how metadata descriptors can contribute to the improvement of already established scholar evaluation instruments such as the impact factor. It will be of use in the development of digital libraries.

Hiring and promotion committees routinely hear an equivalent argument: 'this is important work because it is to be published in prestigious journal X'. But how persuasive is such an argument? This paper examines data on citations to articles published 25 years ago. It finds that it is better to write the best article published in an issue of a medium-quality journal such as the OBES than all four of the worst four articles published in an issue of an elite journal like the AER. Decision-makers need to understand this. Addresses: Univ Warwick, Coventry CV4 7AL, W Midlands, England Reprint Address: Oswald, AJ, Univ Warwick, Coventry CV4 7AL, W Midlands, England.

Title: Brief communication - Adjacency and proximity searching in the Science Citation Index and Google Source: JOURNAL OF INFORMATION SCIENCE, 32 (6): 581-587 2006 Language: English Document Type: Article Author Keywords: information retrieval; adjacency searching; proximity searching; constrained co-occurrence searching; Science Citation Index; Google; Yahoo; Engineering Compendex; PubMed; OVID; search engine; query Abstract: We have developed simple algorithms that allow adjacency and proximity searching in Google and the Science Citation Index (SCI). The SCI algorithm exploits the fact that SCI stopwords in a search phrase function as a placeholder. Such a phrase serves effectively as a fixed adjacency condition determined by the number n of adjacent stopwords (i.e. retrieve all records where word A and word B are separated by n words in at least one location). The algorithm integrates over search phrases with different numbers of adjacent stopwords to provide a flexible adjacency or proximity capability (i.e. retrieve all records where word A and word B are separated by n or fewer words in at least one location, where n is the maximum separation desired between A and B in at least one location). The Google algorithm exploits the fact that asterisks (in Google) separating words in a phrase function like word wildcards. The difference between two such phrases (the first phrase containing one fewer asterisk than the second phrase) serves effectively as a fixed adjacency or proximity condition, with the number of separating words equal to the number of asterisks in the first phrase. The algorithm integrates over these phrase differentials to provide a flexible adjacency or proximity capability (i.e. retrieve all records where word A and word B are separated by n or fewer words in at least one location, where n is the maximum separation desired between A and B in at least one location).

Here I discuss fundamental consequences of such quality measures for the scientific community and propose three remedial actions: (1) use of a ''Combined Impact Estimate'' as a measure of citation statistics, (2) adoption of an open reviewing policy and (3) acceleration of the publication process in order to raise the reputation of the entire discipline (in our case: behavioural science). Authors, reviewers and editors are invited to contribute to the improvement of publication practice.
