IMPACT
ABSTRACT: In this study focusing on the impact of open access on
legal scholarship, the authors examine open access articles from three journals at the University of Georgia School of Law and confirm that legal scholarship freely available via open access improves an article's research impact. Open access legal scholarship which today appears to account for almost half of the output of law faculties can expect to receive fifty-eight percent more citations than non open access writings of similar age from the same venue.

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of
seven sport management and marketing journals on sport-related research published in 20 top tier generic management and marketing journals. Ten top tier management and 10 top tier marketing journals were inventoried to ascertain the number of sport-related management and marketing manuscripts published in those journals from 1987 to 2007. Twenty-five sport management and 51 sport marketing-related manuscripts were identified in the generic journals. From these manuscripts, twelve citations to the seven sport journals were identified in the management publications and 98 citations to the seven sport journals were found in the marketing publications. Sport Marketing Quarterly (62) was the most cited sport management and marketing journal followed by the Journal of Sport Management (28). Results also identify citation frequency by year, first citations and time taken for the seven sport journals to record first citations, author citation frequency and field of author affiliation and its impact on citation patterns. Implications for sport journal focus and editorial policies are discussed as well as the impact of citations in the generic marketing journals compared with the generic management journals.

TITLE: Analysis of performance metrics reporting in papers
comparing treatments or materials/devices in four important orthopaedic
journals for the year 2009 (Article, English)
AUTHOR: Bowles, RJ; Mauffrey, C; Seligson, D
SOURCE: INJURY-INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF THE CARE OF THE INJURED
42 (12). DEC 2011. p.1480-1483 ELSEVIER SCI LTD, OXFORD
KEYWORDS: Orthopaedics; Performance metrics; Evidence-based
medicine; Radiographic measurements
ABSTRACT: Purpose: We propose to look at the quality of performance
metrics reporting in papers comparing two or more treatments. Our goal is to provide additional context in the focus on evidence-based medicine.
Methods: We reviewed papers (1082 papers with 98 papers meeting the inclusion criteria) from four important orthopaedic journals published in
2009 to quantify and analyse the quality of papers reporting performance metrics, defined as (1) radiographic evidence; (2) training/experience of surgeon(s); and (3) intra-operative measurements.
Results: Our research revealed that only 32 papers (33%) reported performance metrics. There were no significant differences in the rate of performance metrics reporting amongst the journals included or amongst the different orthopaedic subspecialties topics; however, papers from South Korea and China reported both performance metrics in general and radiographic measurements specifically at a higher rate than papers from the western world.
Conclusions: The low rate of performance metric reporting could have an impact on the reader's ability to determine the reproducibility of the results published. We propose a new section on performance metrics reporting for editors to include in their instructions to authors. (C)
