ABSTRACT: The number of citations a scholarly work receives is a
common measure of its impact on the scientific literature; citation
classics are the most highly cited works. The content of Suicide and Life-
Threatening Behavior (SLTB) citation classics is described here. The
impact of SLTB citation classics is compared to their counterparts in
journals having published the most suicide papers. All data are from the
ISI electronic venue on the Web of Science and refer to the number of
citations the top 1% of works received in each of ten journals from 1975
through August 10, 2011. Among all ten journals, SLTB ranked first in the
number of works on suicide. The principle theme of half of SLTB suicide
classics was literature review. The median number of citations for SLTB
citation classics (top 1%) was 121.5, with a range between 96 and 279
citations, but classics from generalized psychiatric journals received
more citations as anticipated. Journal impact factors explained 73% of
the variance in classics citation counts across journals. On average,
suicide classics received 30% more citations than all classics. Among a
second group of five specialized suicide journals, however, SLTB ranked
first in average 5-year impact. Although SLTB produced the highest number
of suicide articles of any journal, SLTBs citation classics received
fewer citations than suicide classics in high-impact/prestige, general
journals. Future work is needed to assess what predicts which SLTB
articles ultimately become citation classics.

Abstract:
We define a normalized impact factor (NIF) suitable for assessing in a simple way both the strength of scientific communities and the research influence of individuals. We define those with NIF a parts per thousand yenaEuro parts per thousand 1 as scientific leaders because they influence their peers at least as much as they are influenced by them. The NIF has two outstanding characteristics: (a) it has a clear and universal meaning and (b) it is robust against self-citation misuse. We show how a single lognormal function obtained from a simplified version of the NIF leads to a clear "radiography" of the corresponding scientific community. An illustrative application analyzes a community derived from the list of outstanding referees recognized by the American Physical Society in 2008.

Abstract:
This review examines attention research appearing in The American Journal of Psychology over the journal's rich 125-year history. In particular, the review examines studies focused on selective attention's role in modulating the influence of distraction and the methods used to capture the nature of selective attention. Special attention is given to classic articles by Treisman (1964a, 1964b), Neisser (1963), and Eriksen and Rohrbaugh (1970), whose methods and results are examined in detail in light of current theory and research in selective attention.

Abstract:
The American Journal of Psychology (AJP) was founded in 1887 by G. Stanley Hall during what Edwin G. Boring (1950) called the Period of Mental Chronometry and, consistent with the prevailing interests of the time, featured articles of relevance to scientists in this research domain. Contained in the early volumes of AJP were several articles that examined what have become some of the enduring issues faced by researchers studying the structure and timing of mental processing using reaction time (RT) procedures. Collectively, RT research published in AJP during its early years contributed to establishing mental chronometry as an important subfield of psychology. From 1900 to 1950 interest in mental chronometry waned, during what has been called its Dark Age. Nonetheless, interest in the effects of factors such as age and intelligence on total RI continued unabated. Numerous articles pertinent to these effects appeared in AJP. Finally, with the publication of Neisser's (1963) s!
eminal work on visual search, AJP played an important role in reviving interest in mental chronometry in the latter half of the 20th century and continues in its 125th year of existence to contribute pertinent articles on contemporary research in mental chronometry.

Abstract:
Objective: To analyse the institutionalisation of nutrition sciences in Spain in the second half of the twentieth century, and evaluate the activities of the journal Anales de Bromatologia.
Method: Descriptive bibliometric study of the original articles. Full names of the authors and the complete article title were recorded. Using key words, each article was assigned by consensus of the researchers to a single main subject in accordance with the thirteen subject areas addressed by the Spanish Society of Bromatology in its meetings. An analysis was conducted of the distribution and trends of general productivity indicators and their characteristics.
Results: A total of 917 original articles were published, with a mean of 20.8 papers/year. The subjects for which the highest percentage of articles was recorded were foreign substances in foods, foods of plant origin and nutrition. A total of 874 authors contributed, with a collaboration rate of 2.43 and a transience rate of 70.1%. Distribution of the number of authors per article was close to that indicated by Lotka's law of scientific productivity. The top twelve producers, predominantly women, participated in 49.9% of the articles published.
Conclusion: The journal showed low productivity and was of an endogamous nature, with a predominance of authors related to the School of Bromatology in the Faculty of Pharmacy, at the Complutense University. The subjects addressed reflected the demands of the nutrition transition in Spain. Ntar Hosp 2012; 27 (Supl. 2):18-25 DOI:10.3305/nh.2012.27.sup2.6269

Abstract:
Objective: To evaluate by bibliometric and thematic analysis the scientific literature on omega-3 fatty acids indexed in international databases on health sciences and to establish a comparative base for future analysis.
Method: Searches were conducted with the descriptor (MeSH, as Major Topic) "Fatty Acids, Omega-3" from the first date available until December 31, 2010. Databases consulted: MEDLINE (via PubMed), EMBASE, IS! Web of Knowledge, CINAHL and LILACS.
Results: The most common type of document was originals articles. Obsolescence was set at 5 years. The geographical distribution of authors who appear as first author was EEUU and the articles were written predominantly in English. The study population was 90.98% (95% CI 89.25 to 92.71) adult humans. The documents were classified into 59 subject areas and the most studied topic 16.24% (95% CI 14.4 to 18.04) associated with omega-3, was cardiovascular disease.
Conclusion: This study indicates that the scientific literature on omega-3 fatty acids is a full force area of knowledge. The Anglo-Saxon institutions dominate the scientific production and it is mainly oriented to the study of cardiovascular disease. Nutr Hosp 2012; 27 (Supl. 2):41-48 DOI:10.3305/nh.2012.27.sup2.6272

Abstract:
The presence of nutrition as an independent matter in the educational programs of the Spanish Faculties of Medicine has been scanty until the end of the XXth century. We have witnessed an important development of the specific opportunities for the nutritional sciences in terms of quality and quantity in the XXIst century.
Only one ibero latin American journal,Archivos Latinoamericanos de Nutricion (ALAN, ISSN 0004-0622), was present in the Journal Citation Reports, Science Edition among the 51 journals under the heading of Nutrition & Dietetics. Three more ibero latin American journals have been incorporated to JCR in the XXIst century, Nutricion Hospitalaria (Nutr Hosp, ISSN 0212-1611) in 2006, Revista de Nutricao (Rev Nutr, ISSN 1415-5273) and Revista Espanola de Nutricion Comunitaria (Rev Esp Nutr Comunit, ISSN 1135-3074) in 2007. The four journals are having a growing importance in other electronic platforms, rendering an important service to the scientific society, not only in their environment, but also in the rest of the world. Although English language dominates scientific communications, the critical mass of already existing journals in Spanish and the area of influence of this language is a good stimulus for continuing its utilization.

Abstract:
We present an exhaustive study of the rank-distribution of city-population and population-dynamics of the 50 Spanish provinces (more than 8000 municipalities) in a time-window of 15 years (1996-2010). We exhibit compelling evidence regarding how well the MaxEnt principle describes the equilibrium distributions. We show that the microscopic dynamics that governs population growth is the deciding factor that originates the observed macroscopic distributions. The connection between microscopic dynamics and macroscopic distributions is unravelled via MaxEnt.

Abstract:
We establish empirically using three different definitions of US cities that the upper tail obeys a Pareto law and not a lognormal distribution. We emphasize estimation of a switching point between the body of the city size distribution (which includes most cities) and its upper tail (which includes most of the population). For the 2000 Census Places data, in particular, our preferred model suggests that switching from a lognormal to a Pareto law occurs within a narrow confidence interval around population 60,290, with a corresponding Pareto exponent of 1.25. Most cities obey a lognormal; but the upper tail and therefore most of the population obeys a Pareto law. We obtain qualitatively similar results for the upper tail with the Area Clusters data of Rozenfeld et al. (2011), and the US Census combined Metropolitan and Micropolitan Areas data, though the shape of that distribution at smaller sizes is sensitive to the definition used. (C) 2012 Elsevier Inc.

Abstract:
Orderliness, reflected via mathematical laws, is encountered in different frameworks involving social groups. Here we show that a thermodynamics can be constructed that macroscopically describes urban population flows. Microscopic dynamic equations and simulations with random walkers underlie the macroscopic approach. Our results might be regarded, via suitable analogies, as a step towards building an explicit social thermodynamics. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevE.86.066105

Abstract:
Introduction: Research is usually considered a reliable indicator of the degree of development. Research in a problematic area such as food and nutrition for a given region, should have an impact on scientific production in agreement with the importance of the problem, the research capacity and the available resources for generating such a research.
Objective: To identify some indicators of Iberoamerican research in nutrition and food.
Method: Retrospective study of Iberoamerican scientific production in nutrition and food in the last 25 years. The data were obtained from the *bibliographic* database Science Citation Index Expanded, Journal Citation Reports Science Edition Database 2011, both included in the Web of Knowledge (Thomson Reuters), and the database of the World Bank.
Results: 49,808 papers were registered, the 3.20% of the Health Sciences collection in SCI. The evolution was fitted to an exponential model, N&D (R-2 0.962) and FS&T (R-2 0.995). The average production in N&D per average population was higher in Spain with 0.659 papers/million. The highest rates of productivity and profitability were found in Guatemala with 12.963 papers/1000 researchers and 1.486 papers/million $ respectively. The average production in FS&T of the different countries per average population was higher in Cuba with 21.624 papers/million. The productivity index was higher in Uruguay with 25.999 papers/thousand researchers. The profitability index was higher in Guatemala with 0.271 papers/million $.
Conclusion: There is exponential growth in the two categories studied N&D and FS&T. Productivity and profitability was higher in countries with low R&D (Research & Development) budget. Nutr Hosp 2012; 27 (Supl. 2):26-33 DOI:10.3305/nh.2012.27.sup2.6270

ABSTRACT: A bibliometric approach was employed to identify the
characteristics of Polish Journal of Environmental Studies during 2000-
11. It is a young journal, and bibliometric analyses can provide insights
into its citation and performance pattern. Findings can be used to devise
approaches to improve performance for young journals in general. Our
analysis includeds the publication's output, distribution of authors'
keywords, and performances of countries, institutions, and authors.
Bibliometric indicators such as total, single, collaborative, first
author, and corresponding author publications were applied. The top-cited
publications each year and publications of the highest impact also are
reported. Results show that "heavy metals" were the most frequently used
author keywords, followed by "soil" and "cadmium" Authors from 54
different countries published in the journal, with the most publications
submitted by authors from Poland. Two Polish institutions, Technical
University of Gdansk and Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan, were the
main contributing institutions.

KEYWORDS: long-term impact; research; Framework Programme; R&D
ABSTRACT: Despite a large and growing effort in the evaluation of
public R&D funding programmes, we know surprisingly little about their
long-term effects. This is a pity, because the conventional
justifications for state intervention in research depend upon phenomena
such as the production and use of public goods, knowledge, spillovers,
the production of human capital, and systemic changes that are inherently
long term in nature. The few available long-term studies demonstrate that
the time constants involved are indeed very big. However, the way public
policy is governed and managed pushes us to evaluate in the short term:
trying to explain or somehow to 'measure' the effects of programmes that
may not be complete and whose effects may not even be expected until some
time in the future. An earlier article considered what the existing
evaluation record tells us about Framework Programme performance,
pointing out the short-term orientation of the evaluation techniques used
and the correspondingly limited perspective they provide on impacts. This
article reports newer work to explore longer term effects and emphasizes
the role of the Framework Programme in coordinating the development of
the European innovation system. Thus while traditional studies of long-
term effects of research emphasize the links between new knowledge and
innovation, a more systemic approach points to the role of funding not
only in these aspects but also in the social shaping of the research and
innovation system.

ABSTRACT: Purpose: Publication analysis has value in evaluating the
mechanics of academic efforts in specific scientific communities. The
specific aim of this study was to evaluate whether established
bibliometric patterns seen in other academic fields were likewise
observed in radiation oncology publication parameters.
Methods and Materials: We used a commercial bibliographic database to
analyze all publications in Red Journal, or International Journal of
Radiation Oncology Biology Physics (IJROBP), the New England Journal of
Medicine (NEJM), the Journal of Clinical Oncology (JCO), and Radiology
(Rad) between January 1, 1975 and May 18, 2011. Power-law (Lotka's law or
1/n(2)) conformance was assessed. Curve fit analysis was then performed.
Results: In all 4 journals, a total of 219,476 authors were responsible
for 62,232 articles. Of those, 79,810 authors published 13,772 articles
in IJROBP, with 79,446/16,707 authors/articles in NEJM, 106,984/11,920
authors/articles in JCO and 90,325/19,745 authors/articles in Rad. The
mean +/- standard deviation of authors per publication was 5.74 +/- 4.61
overall. There were 5.8 +/- 3.53, 4.8 +/- 5.7, 8.9 +/- 3.53, and 4.6 +/-
2.8 authors per article in IJROBP, NEJM, JCO, and Rad, respectively
(P<.001). The number of authors publishing n articles was 1/n(2.02) of
those publishing 1 article in IJROBP, 1/n(2.52) in NEJM, 1/n(1.97) in
JCO, and 1/n(2.16) in Rad.
Conclusions: Bibliometric analysis shows that authorship distributions in
IJROBP approximate those of the scientific literature in comparable
scientific journals. Our results suggest that the majority of
publications in the field of radiation oncology are produced by a small
but highly productive group of authors. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc.

ABSTRACT: This article examines the communication networks within
and between science and technology studies (STS) and the history of
science. In particular, journal relatedness data are used to analyze some
of the structural features of their disciplinary identities and
relationships. The results first show that, although the history of
science is more than half a century older than STS, the size of the STS
network is more than twice that of the history of science network.
Further, while a majority of the journals in the STS network are
connected by weak ties, about half of the history of science network
consists of strong ties. The history of science network is thus more
cohesive than the STS network. The relatively strong cohesion within the
history of science network is associated with comparatively high degrees
of intra-disciplinary communication, but comparatively weak ties to only
a few related disciplines. The analysis also shows that very few members
of the history of science cliques are situated on the shortest path
between both specialties. Moreover, given the relatively impermeable
nature of the history of science network, the latter partially depends on
STS to reach some of the neighboring disciplines.

SEARCH TERM(S): PRICE DJD rauth
KEYWORDS: Scientific innovation; Theory; Diffusion
ABSTRACT: This article improves our understanding of the reasons
underlying the intellectual migration of scientists from existing
cognitive domains to nascent scientific fields. To that purpose we
present, first, a number of findings from the sociology of science that
give different insights about scientific migration. We then attempt to
bring some of these insights together under the conceptual roof of an
actor-based approach linking expected utility and diffusion theory.
Intellectual migration is seen as the choice of scientists who decide
under uncertainty and on the base of estimations about probabilities,
costs, and benefits of the migration. The resulting choice model can be
used as a heuristic base for further exploration of the subject.

CENTRAL LTD, LONDON
KEYWORDS: impact; open access; peer review; scientific publishing
KEYWORDS+: SCIENCE; SCOPUS
ABSTRACT: Background: In the past few years there has been an
ongoing debate as to whether the proliferation of open access (OA)
publishing would damage the peer review system and put the quality of
scientific journal publishing at risk. Our aim was to inform this debate
by comparing the scientific impact of OA journals with subscription
journals, controlling for journal age, the country of the publisher,
discipline and (for OA publishers) their business model.
Methods: The 2-year impact factors (the average number of citations to
the articles in a journal) were used as a proxy for scientific impact.
The Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) was used to identify OA
journals as well as their business model. Journal age and discipline were
obtained from the Ulrich's periodicals directory. Comparisons were
performed on the journal level as well as on the article level where the
results were weighted by the number of articles published in a journal. A
total of 610 OA journals were compared with 7,609 subscription journals
using Web of Science citation data while an overlapping set of 1,327 OA
journals were compared with 11,124 subscription journals using Scopus
data.
Results: Overall, average citation rates, both unweighted and weighted
for the number of articles per journal, were about 30% higher for
subscription journals. However, after controlling for discipline
(medicine and health versus other), age of the journal (three time
periods) and the location of the publisher (four largest publishing
countries versus other countries) the differences largely disappeared in
most subcategories except for journals that had been launched prior to
1996. OA journals that fund publishing with article processing charges
(APCs) are on average cited more than other OA journals. In medicine and
health, OA journals founded in the last 10 years are receiving about as
many citations as subscription journals launched during the same period.
Conclusions: Our results indicate that OA journals indexed in Web of
Science and/or Scopus are approaching the same scientific impact and
quality as subscription journals, particularly in biomedicine and for
journals funded by article processing charges.

ABSTRACT: Background: Internal medicine includes several
subspecialties. This study aimed to describe change trend of impact
factors in different subspecialties of internal medicine during the past
12 years, as well as the developmental differences among each
subspecialty, and the possible influencing factors behind these changes
and differences.
Methods: Nine subspecialties of internal medicine were chosen for
comparison. All data were collected from the Science Citation Index
Expanded and Journal Citation Reports database.
Results: (1) Journal numbers in nine subspecialties increased
significantly from 1998 to 2010, with an average increment of 80.23%, in
which cardiac and cardiovascular system diseases increased 131.2% rank
the first; hematology increased 45% rank the least. (2) Impact Factor in
subspecialties of infectious disease, cardiac and cardiovascular system
diseases, gastroenterology and hepatology, hematology, endocrinology and
metabolism increased significantly (p<0.05), in which gastroenterology
and hepatology had the largest increase of 65.4%. (3) Journal impact
factor of 0-2 had the largest proportion in all subspecialties. Among the
journals with high impact factor (IF>6), hematology had the maximum
proportion of 10%, nephrology and respiratory system disease had the
minimum of 4%. Among the journal with low impact factor (IF<2), journal
in nephrology and allergy had the most (60%), while endocrinology and
metabolism had the least (40%). There were differences in median number
of IF among the different subspecialties (p<0.05), in which endocrinology
and metabolism had the highest, nephrology had the lowest. (4) The
highest IF had a correlation with journal numbers and total paper numbers
in each field.
Conclusion: The IF of internal medicine journals showed an increasingly
positive trend, in which gastroenterology and hepatology increase the
most. Hematology had more high IF journals. Endocrinology and metabolism
had higher average IF. Nephrology remained the lowest position. Numbers
of journals and total papers were associated with the highest IF.

ABSTRACT: In genetic epidemiology, genome-wide association studies
(GWAS) are used to rapidly scan a large set of genetic variants and thus
to identify associations with a particular trait or disease. The GWAS
philosophy is different to that of conventional candidate-gene-based
approaches, which directly test the effects of genetic variants of
potentially contributory genes in an association study. One controversial
question is whether GWAS provide relevant scientific outcomes by
comparison with candidate-gene studies. We thus performed a bibliometric
study using two citation metrics to assess whether the GWAS have
contributed a capital gain in knowledge discovery by comparison with
candidate-gene approaches. We selected GWAS published between 2005 and
2009 and matched them with candidate-gene studies on the same topic and
published in the same period of time. We observed that the GWAS papers
have received, on average, 30 +/- 55 citations more than the candidate
gene papers, 1 year after their publication date, and 39 +/- 58 citations
more 2 years after their publication date. The GWAS papers were, on
average, 2.8 +/- 2.4 and 2.9 +/- 2.4 times more cited than expected, 1
and 2 years after their publication date; whereas the candidate gene
papers were 1.5 +/- 1.2 and 1.5 +/- 1.4 times more cited than expected.
While the evaluation of the contribution to scientific research through
citation metrics may be challenged, it cannot be denied that GWAS are
great hypothesis generators, and are a powerful complement to candidate
gene studies.

ABSTRACT: We collected the impact factor (IF) and 5-year impact
factor (5-IF) of 1058 medical journals in SCI-expanded database, and
explore their changes with the increase of publication frequency (PF).
Our studies shows that there are positive correlation of PF with IF
(r=0.313, P=0.000) and 5-IF (r=0.298, P=0.000). According to the levels
of journals' PF, the journals were divided into four groups. The journals
with PF from 1 to 5 were divided into group I, t hat from 6 to 11, 12 to
23, 24 to 58 were divided into group II, group III and group IV,
respectively. The IF of the journals in group I were 1.94 +/- 1.71, 2.16
+/- 4.30 in group II, 3.17 +/- 2.93 in group III, and 8.00 +/- 9.68 in
group IV, respectively. The 5-IF of the journals in group I were 2.080 +/-
1.668, 2.194 +/- 3.046 in group II, 3.253 +/- 3.045 in group III, and
8.00 +/- 10.015 in group IV, respectively. With comparison of mean ranks
of IF and 5-IF among four groups with different PF, we had found that the
higher the PF the higher the IF (H=114.075, P=0.000) and 5-IF (H=102.796,
P=0.000). From 2006 to 2008, PF increased at various degrees in 22
journals, of which the total citation increased too, and just 18 journals
of which IF increased. After PF increased in 22 journals, IF and 5-year
IF were obviously higher than those before PF increased (Z=2.386, P=0.017;
Z=4.015, P=0.000). We concluded that the IF and 5-IF are increased with
the increasing of journals' PF. The mechanism of the positive correlation
between IF and PF are discussed.

ABSTRACT: This paper outlines 10 years of experiences concerning
the inception and operation of the Thai-Journal Citation Index (TCI)
Centre, which was the first national citation centre in Thailand and also
in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), founded in 2001.
The experiences discussed involve the aims and missions of the TCI
towards improving the quality and increasing the visibility of local and
national research findings. The impacts of the TCI on the academic
community are also described, together with the challenges faced in
regard to its acceptability, especially by internationally oriented
researchers. Various TCI activities to promote and disseminate national
research findings are discussed, such as a quality assessment program for
Thai journals indexed in TCI, awarding high-quality Thai journals,
launching the Thai Journal Online (Thai-JO) system, and identification
and comparison of local research performances using TCI and international
databases as data sources. Finally, the ASEAN Citation Index (ACI)
database is introduced, as part of the preparation for the ASEAN Economic
Community (AEC) in conjunction with the TCI and other national citation
index databases, in order to enhance the dissemination and quality of
ASEAN research profiles on an international platform.

ABSTRACT: This study analyses the research output of Sri Lanka in
S&T during 2001-2010 on several parameters including its growth and
global publications share, citation impact, share of international
collaborative papers, contribution of major collaborative partner
countries, contribution to various subject fields, geographical
distribution of its papers, evaluation of the characteristics on its high
productive institutions, authors and papers and the journals publishing
the research output. The Scopus Citation Database has been used to
retrieve the publication data for 10 years. The study concludes that Sri
Lanka needs to increase its output and bring about improvement in the
quality of its research efforts. This can be done by investing much more
in research and development (R&D) expenditure, increase in the deployment
of more qualified manpower and international collaboration; and by
modernizing and strengthening its research infrastructure.

ABSTRACT: We introduce an indicator (D-T) to measure the diffusion
impact of scientific research. The indicator focuses on the variety of
citing sources by giving a full credit when a new citing source makes an
appearance, and a tapered credit when a new citing paper appears in an
already used existed source. As a preliminary study, we only used a
simple example with individual journals as the diffusion units. A sample
from a highly interdisciplinary journal, Chemometrics and Intelligent
Laboratory Systems, is used to illustrate this procedure. From the
theoretical analysis and experimental examples, the DT index proved an
efficient function for differentiating the scope of citation diffusion.

ABSTRACT: This paper examines the co-authorship network in the
field of scientometrics using social network analysis techniques with the
aim of developing an understanding of research collaboration in this
scientific community. Using co-authorship data from 3125 articles
published in the journal Scientometrics with a time span of more than
three decades (1980-2012), we construct an evolving co-authorship network
and calculate three centrality measures (closeness, betweenness, and
degree) for 3024 authors, 1207 institutions, 68 countries and 22 academic
fields in this network. This paper also discusses the usability of
centrality measures in author ranking, and suggests that centrality
measures can be useful indicators for impact analysis. Findings revealed
that scientometrics was not dominated by a couple of key researchers as
quite a significant number of popular researchers were identified. The
United States occupies the topmost position in all measures except for
degree centrality. The most active, central and collaborative academic

ABSTRACT: Nitrate contamination has become an increasing problem
globally and has aroused the interests of researchers. The present
research was designed to evaluate the global scientific outputs in the
Institute of Scientific Information subject category of "nitrate removal"
for the past 20 years, based on the online version of the Science
Citation Index Expanded, Web of Science, from 1991 to 2010. Articles
related to nitrate removal were assessed from the aspect of distributions
of source countries, institutes, the distributions of words in the title,
author keywords, and KeyWords Plus. The new method named "word cluster
analysis" was also employed to further investigate the research status on
nitrate removal. Three categories including removal field, removal
methods, and product were also introduced to analyze the research trends
in nitrate removal. The results showed that researchers paid most
attention to "soil" and "water" in the removal field. "Denitrification"
possessed the largest percentage among the removal methods, indicating
that biological means were dominated for nitrate removal. Moreover,
"nitrogen" as the ideal product of nitrate removal was the most
predominant among the product, which was the goal of the technique for
nitrate removal. The impacts of the most cited articles each year were
also discussed with the article life information.

TITLE: Evaluating quality and excellence in translation studies
research Publish or perish, the Spanish way (Article, English)

ABSTRACT: Academia has embarked on a journey where credentials must
be shown on a regular basis: publish or perish. Obtaining the ticket to
success is beyond quantity, which can be measured; it is related to more
intangible terms such as excellence and quality. Research assessment
exercises are now here to stay, and they test not only those who wish to
jump on board, but also their baggage, and ultimately whether their boat
stays afloat or sinks.
Qualitative assessment is a much maligned exercise which has to evaluate
and balance criteria measured in terms of: originality, thematic
diversity, innovation, sustainability, multi-disciplinary research,
benefits, and impact. This article departs from a study of some Spanish
evaluating agencies-also making reference when possible to their European
equivalent and their assessment criteria. After drafting a list of merits
listed in each agency the article poses some basic questions regarding
assessment. It then goes into the nature of assessment criteria and
offers concrete data on Translation and Interpreting Studies journal
indexing. The paper concludes with some general comments and
recommendations, which are valid across Europe.

ABSTRACT: More than 400 scientific journals are published in
Serbia, and 357 are referred to in the Serbian Citation Index - national
citation index. The visibility of Serbian scientific journals in the
citation database Web of Science has risen significantly in the last
decade. Results of this analysis show the presence of Serbian journals in
Web of Science, JCR, Scopus and Serbian Citation Index (SCIndeks) during
four years (2007 to 2010). The paper discusses different bibliometric
parameters in Web of Science. JCR and the Scopus portal SCImago
(citations, average citations/year, impact factor, Hirsch index) for
Serbian journals. Bibliometric indicators that appear in the National
Citation Index are also analyzed. The number of Serbian journals with
impact factor has increased during the observed period. The impact of
Serbian publishers rose remarkably in 2010, and Serbia has two highly
ranked journals.
