Abstract:
The *impact factor* (IF) of scientific journals has acquired a major
role in the evaluations of the output of scholars, departments and whole
institutions. Typically papers appearing in journals with large values
of the IF receive a high weight in such evaluations. However, at the end
of the day one is interested in assessing the impact of individuals,
rather than papers. Here we introduce Author *Impact Factor* (AIF),
which is the extension of the IF to authors. The AIF of an author A in
year t is the average number of citations given by papers published in
year t to papers published by A in a period of Delta t years before year
t. Due to its intrinsic dynamic character, AIF is capable to capture
trends and variations of the impact of the scientific output of scholars
in time, unlike the h-index, which is a growing measure taking into
account the whole career path.

Title:
Measures for Impact, Consistency, and the h- and g-Indices

Abstract:
An altogether different view on the properties of a good performance
measure than that given in Egghe (2012) is offered. Egghe argued that a
good impact measure should reward nonconsistency; that is, the more
citations over papers are unequally distributed, the higher the impact
should be. Here, a quantitative proxy for consistency is offered, and it
is shown that as consistency increases, the ideal performance measure,
which is sensitive to changes in consistency, should increase,
reflecting this virtue.

Abstract:
Our success as a field and as individuals in reproductive science and
medicine relies on our ability to produce high quality work that has
broad visibility and impact. A common metric for assessing such success
is the quantity of publications that are published in journals with high
impact factors. It is unclear, however, how frequently work related to
reproductive science and medicine actually appears in what are
considered the highest impact journals.
To address this gap in knowledge, we first determined how the field of
reproductive biology in general compared to other research areas in
terms of composite journal *impact factor*. Second, using a targeted
search approach in the PubMed database, we examined the relationship
between a journal's *impact factor* and the number of reproductive
research articles published per journal issue.
We found that compared to other major scientific disciplines, our field
lacks journals with impact factors above 4. In addition, primary
original research articles on reproduction-irrespective of male or
female search terms-do not appear often in high impact journals.
Instead, there is an increased percentage of secondary reproductive
literature in high impact journals compared to topic-specific journals
of lower impact.
There are likely several explanations for why reproductive science and
medicine has low visibility, including the field's small relative size,
its lack of a specific disease and associated strong advocacy, and its
surrounding social, ethical, and political unease. Nevertheless, there
are concrete actions we can take to minimize the role of *impact factor*
in our evaluation while simultaneously increasing influence through
global awareness of the importance and need for reproductive research.

Abstract:
Citation based approaches, such as the *impact factor* and h-index, have
been used to measure the influence or impact of journals for journal
rankings. A survey of the related literature for different disciplines
shows that the level of correlation between these citation based
approaches is domain dependent. We analyze the correlation between the
impact factors and h-indices of the top ranked computer science journals
for five different subjects. Our results show that the correlation
between these citation based approaches is very low. Since using a
different approach can result in different journal rankings, we further
combine the different results and then re-rank the journals using a
combination method. These new ranking results can be used as a reference
for researchers to choose their publication outlets. (C) 2014 Elsevier

Title:
Do Article Influence scores overestimate the citation impact of social science journals in subfields that are related *to* higher-impact natural science disciplines?

Abstract:
Unlike Impact Factors (IF), Article Influence (AI) scores assign greater
weight to citations that appear in highly cited journals. The natural
sciences tend to have higher citation rates than the social sciences. We
might therefore expect that relative to IF, AI overestimates the
citation impact of social science journals in subfields that are related
to (and presumably cited in) higher-impact natural science disciplines.
This study evaluates that assertion through a set of simple and multiple
regressions covering seven social science disciplines: anthropology,
communication, economics, education, library and information science,
psychology, and sociology. Contrary to expectations. AI underestimates
5IF (five-year *Impact Factor*) for journals in science-related
subfields such as scientific communication, science education,
scientometrics, biopsychology, and medical sociology. journals in these
subfields have low AI scores relative to their 5IF values. Moreover, the
effect of science-related status is considerable typically 0.60 5IF
units or 0.50 SD. This effect is independent of the more general finding
that AI scores underestimate 5IF for higher-impact journals. It is also
independent of the very modest curvilinearity in the relationship
between AI and 5IF. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Abstract:
The journal *impact factor* is not comparable among fields of science
and social science because of systematic differences in publication and
citation behavior across disciplines. In this work, a source
normalization of the journal *impact factor* is proposed. We use the
aggregate *impact factor* of the citing journals as a measure of the
citation potential in the journal topic, and we employ this citation
potential in the normalization of the journal *impact factor* to make it
comparable between scientific fields. An empirical application comparing
some impact indicators with our topic normalized *impact factor* in a
set of 224 journals from four different fields shows that our
normalization, using the citation potential in the journal topic,
reduces the betwen-group variance with respect to the within-group
variance in a higher proportion than the rest of indicators analyzed.
The effect of journal self-citations over the normalization process is
also studied. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Abstract:
The distribution of impact factors has been modeled in the recent
informetric literature using two-exponent law proposed by Mansilla,
Koppen, Cocho, and Miramontes (2007). This paper shows that two
distributions widely-used in economics, namely the Dagum and
Singh-Maddala models, possess several advantages over the two-exponent
model. Compared to the latter, the former models give as good as or
slightly better fit to data on impact factors in eight important
scientific fields. In contrast to the two-exponent model, both proposed
distributions have closed-from probability density functions and
cumulative distribution functions, which facilitates fitting these
distributions to data and deriving their statistical properties. (C)

Title:
Parallel Worlds of Citable Documents and Others: Inflated Commissioned Opinion Articles Enhance Scientometric Indicators

Abstract:
Scientometric indicators influence the standing of journals among peers,
thus affecting decisions regarding manuscript submissions, scholars'
careers, and funding. Here we hypothesize that *impact-factor* boosting
(unethical behavior documented previously in several underperforming
journals) should not be considered as exceptional, but that it affects
even the top-tier journals. We performed a citation analysis of
documents recently published in 11 prominent general science and
biomedical journals. In these journals, only 12 to 79% of what they
publish was considered original research, whereas editorial materials
alone constituted 11 to 44% of the total document types published.
Citations to commissioned opinion articles comprised 3 to 15% of the
total citations to the journals within 3 postpublication years, with
even a higher share occurring during the first postpublication year. An
additional 4 to 15% of the citations were received by the journals from
commissioned opinion articles published in other journals. Combined, the
parallel world of uncitable documents was responsible for up to 30% of
the total citations to the top-tier journals, with the highest values
found for medical science journals (New England Journal of Medicine,
JAMA, and the Lancet) and lower values found for the Science, Nature,
and Cell series journals. Self-citations to some of the top-tier
journals reach values higher than the total citation counts accumulated
by papers in most of the Web of Science-indexed journals. Most of the
self-citations were generated by commissioned opinion articles. The
parallel world of supposedly uncitable documents flourishes and severely
distorts the commonly used scientometric indicators.

Abstract:
Bioinformatics is a fast-growing field based on the optimal use of "big
data" gathered in genomic, proteomics, and functional genomics research.
In this paper, we conduct a comprehensive and in-depth bibliometric
analysis of the field of bioinformatics by extracting citation data from
PubMed Central full-text. Citation data for the period 2000 to 2011,
comprising 20,869 papers with 546,245 citations, was used to evaluate
the productivity and influence of this emerging field. Four measures
were used to identify productivity; most productive authors, most
productive countries, most productive organizations, and most popular
subject terms. Research impact was analyzed based on the measures of
most cited papers, most cited authors, emerging stars, and leading
organizations. Results show the overall trends between the periods 2000
to 2003 and 2004 to 2007 were dissimilar, while trends between the
periods 2004 to 2007 and 2008 to 2011 were similar. In addition, the
field of bioinformatics has undergone a significant shift, co-evolving
with other biomedical disciplines.

Abstract:
Objective. To characterize the scientific output of the Revista
Panamericana de Salud Publica/Pan American Journal of Public Health
(RPSP) as a scientific publication of reference in the public health
sector in the Americas.
Methods. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted based on the
articles published in the RPSP from 1997-2012. Bibliometric indicators
of productivity (documents published, languages, authorship, and indices
of productivity and collaboration); impact (*impact factor* according to
the SciELO Network, Journal Citation Report and SCImago); key words; and
bibliographic references, their structure (document type and main
nucleus of Bradford) and degree of obsolescence (Burton and Kebler
half-life, and Price index), were analyzed.
Results. A total of 2 815 articles with a median of 3 authors and 2
institutions per article were published. The percentage of original
research articles increased in 2008-2012 compared to 2003-2007 and
1997-2002 (P < 0.001). The predominant language was Spanish, displaced
by English in the last 5 years. A total of 88.76% of the key words
referred to the Health Sciences Descriptors (DeCS) and had a public
health and community orientation related to the Americas. The Burton and
Kebler half-life of bibliographic references was 8 years, although it
decreased to 5 years in 2012. The Price index was 20.47% and the nucleus
of Bradford was made up of 20 mainstream journals. The percentage of
self-citation was low (2.07%).
Conclusions. The RPSP is an international publication with bibliometric
indicators similar to those of the most representative Latin American
health science journals, with improvements in the recent years studied
that lead it to fully meet international publishing criteria.

Abstract:
The data and findings by Miskiewicz (2013) on the relationship between
the number (J) of publications ranked according to their decreasing
importance, for some scientist with her/his coauthors (CA), i.e.J alpha
1/r(alpha), as found in Ausloos (2013), when specific types of
publications, i.e. proceedings (in a generalized sense) and peer-review
journals, are considered, are reexamined along the *Zipf-Mandelbrot* law
Mandelbrot (1977), i.e. J alpha 1/(upsilon+r)(zeta) The statistics are
much improved. The exponent a and are compared. The m(a) core value,
i.e. the core number of CAs [1] is unaffected, of course. A
Black-Scholes-Schrodinger model framework is proposed to describe the
findings. (c) 2014 Elsevier BM. All rights reserved.

Title:
The Effect on Citation Inequality of Differences in Citation Practices at the Web of Science Subject Category Level

Abstract:
This article studies the impact of differences in citation practices at
the subfield, or Web of Science subject category level, using the model
introduced in Crespo, Li, and Ruiz-Castillo (2013a), according to which
the number of citations received by an article depends on its underlying
scientific influence and the field to which it belongs. We use the same
Thomson Reuters data set of about 4.4 million articles used in Crespo et
al. (2013a) to analyze 22 broad fields. The main results are the
following: First, when the classification system goes from 22 fields to
219 subfields the effect on citation inequality of differences in
citation practices increases from similar to 14% at the field level to
18% at the subfield level. Second, we estimate a set of exchange rates
(ERs) over a wide [660, 978] citation quantile interval to express the
citation counts of articles into the equivalent counts in the
all-sciences case. In the fractional case, for example, we find that in
187 of 219 subfields the ERs are reliable in the sense that the
coefficient of variation is smaller than or equal to 0.10. Third, in the
fractional case the normalization of the raw data using the ERs (or
subfield mean citations) as normalization factors reduces the importance
of the differences in citation practices from 18% to 3.8% (3.4%) of
overall citation inequality. Fourth, the results in the fractional case
are essentially replicated when we adopt a multiplicative approach.

Abstract:
I propose the use of h-plots for visualizing the asymmetric
relationships between the citing and cited profiles of journals in a
commonmap. With this exploratory tool, we can understand better the
journal's dual roles of citing and being cited in a reference network.
The h-plot is introduced and its use is validated with a set of 25
journals belonging to the statistics area. The relatedness factor is
considered for describing the relations of citations from a journal "i"
to a journal "j," and the citations from the journal "j" to the journal
"i." More information has been extracted from the h-plot, compared with
other statistical techniques for modelling and representing asymmetric
data, such as multidimensional unfolding.

Abstract:
Seemingly similar individuals often experience drastically different
success trajectories, with some repeatedly failing and others
consistently succeeding. One explanation is preexisting variability
along unobserved fitness dimensions that is revealed gradually through
differential achievement. Alternatively, positive feedback operating on
arbitrary initial advantages may increasingly set apart winners from
losers, producing runaway inequality. To identify social feedback in
human reward systems, we conducted randomized experiments by intervening
in live social environments across the domains of funding, status,
endorsement, and reputation. In each system we consistently found that
early success bestowed upon arbitrarily selected recipients produced
significant improvements in subsequent rates of success compared with
the control group of nonrecipients. However, success exhibited
decreasing marginal returns, with larger initial advantages failing to
produce much further differentiation. These findings suggest a lesser
degree of vulnerability of reward systems to incidental or fabricated
advantages and a more modest role for cumulative advantage in the
explanation of social inequality than previously thought.

IMPACT

Abstract:
Journal-based citations are an important source of data for impact
indices. However, the impact of journal articles extends beyond formal
scholarly discourse. Measuring online scholarly impact calls for new
indices, complementary to the older ones. This article examines a
possible alternative metric source, blog posts aggregated at
ResearchBlogging.org, which discuss peer-reviewed articles and provide
full *bibliographic* references. Articles reviewed in these blogs
therefore receive "blog citations." We hypothesized that articles
receiving blog citations close to their publication time receive more
journal citations later than the articles in the same journal published
in the same year that did not receive such blog citations. Statistically
significant evidence for articles published in 2009 and 2010 support
this hypothesis for seven of 12 journals (58%) in 2009 and 13 of 19
journals (68%) in 2010. We suggest, based on these results, that blog
citations can be used as an alternative metric source.

Abstract:
This study continues a long history of author cocitation analysis (and
more recently, author *bibliographic* coupling analysis) of the
intellectual structure of information science (IS) into the time period
2006 to 2010 (IS 2006-2010). We find that web technologies continue to
drive developments, especially at the research front, although perhaps
more indirectly than before. A broadening of perspectives is visible in
IS 2006-2010, where network science becomes influential and where
full-text analysis methods complement traditional computer science
influences. Research in the areas of the h-index and mapping of science
appears to have been highlights of IS 2006-2011. This study tests and
confirms a forecast made previously by comparing knowledge-base and
research-front findings for IS 2001-2005, which expected both the
information retrieval (IR) systems and webometrics specialties to shrink
in 2006 to 2010. A corresponding comparison of the knowledge base and
research front of IS 2006-2010 suggests a continuing decline of the IR
systems specialty in the near future, but also a considerable (re)
growth of the webometrics area after a period of decline from 2001 to
2005 and 2006 to 2010, with the latter due perhaps in part to its
contribution to an emerging web science.

Abstract:
Recently, Harzing's Publish or Perish software was updated to include
Microsoft Academic Search as a second citation database search option
for computing various citation-based metrics. This article explores the
new search option by scoring 50 top economics and finance journals and
comparing them with the results obtained using the original Google
Scholar-based search option. The new database delivers significantly
smaller scores for all metrics, but the rank correlations across the two
databases for the h-index, g-index, AWCR, and e-index are significantly
correlated, especially when the time frame is restricted to more recent
years. Comparisons are also made to the Article Influence score from
eigenfactor.org and to the RePEc h-index, both of which adjust for
journal-level self-citations.

Abstract:
Our success as a field and as individuals in reproductive science and
medicine relies on our ability to produce high quality work that has
broad visibility and impact. A common metric for assessing such success
is the quantity of publications that are published in journals with high
impact factors. It is unclear, however, how frequently work related to
reproductive science and medicine actually appears in what are
considered the highest impact journals.
To address this gap in knowledge, we first determined how the field of
reproductive biology in general compared to other research areas in
terms of composite journal impact factor. Second, using a targeted
search approach in the PubMed database, we examined the relationship
between a journal's impact factor and the number of reproductive
research articles published per journal issue.
We found that compared to other major scientific disciplines, our field
lacks journals with impact factors above 4. In addition, primary
original research articles on reproduction-irrespective of male or
female search terms-do not appear often in high impact journals.
Instead, there is an increased percentage of secondary reproductive
literature in high impact journals compared to topic-specific journals
of lower impact.
There are likely several explanations for why reproductive science and
medicine has low visibility, including the field's small relative size,
its lack of a specific disease and associated strong advocacy, and its
surrounding social, ethical, and political unease. Nevertheless, there
are concrete actions we can take to minimize the role of impact factor
in our evaluation while simultaneously increasing influence through
global awareness of the importance and need for reproductive research.

Abstract:
This study analyzes coauthorship patterns in the social sciences and
humanities (SSH) for the period 2000 to 2010. The basis for the analysis
is the Flemish Academic *Bibliographic* Database for the Social Sciences
and Humanities (VABB-SHW), a comprehensive *bibliographic* database of
peer-reviewed publications in the SSH by researchers affiliated with
Flemish universities. Combining data on journal articles and book
chapters, our findings indicate that collaborative publishing in the SSH
is increasing, though considerable differences between disciplines
remain. Conversely, we did observe a sharp decline in single-author
publishing. We further demonstrate that coauthored SSH articles in
journals indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) generally have a higher
(and growing) number of coauthors than do either those in non-WoS
journals or book chapters. This illustrates the need to include non-WoS
data and book chapters when studying coauthorship in the SSH.

Abstract:
Subject classification arises as an important topic for bibliometrics
and *scientometrics*, searching to develop reliable and consistent tools
and outputs. Such objectives also call for a well delimited underlying
subject classification scheme that adequately reflects scientific
fields. Within the broad ensemble of classification techniques,
clustering analysis is one of the most successful.
Two clustering algorithms based on modularity the VOS and Louvain
methods are presented here for the purpose of updating and optimizing
the journal classification of the SCImago Journal & Country Rank (SJR)
platform. We used network analysis and Pajek visualization software to
run both algorithms on a network of more than 18,000 SJR journals
combining three citation-based measures of direct citation, co-citation
and *bibliographic* coupling. The set of clusters obtained was termed
through category labels assigned to SJR journals and significant words
from journal titles.
Despite the fact that both algorithms exhibited slight differences in
performance, the results show a similar behaviour in grouping journals.
Consequently, they are deemed to be appropriate solutions for
classification purposes. The two newly generated algorithm-based
classifications were compared to other bibliometric classification
systems, including the original SJR and WoS Subject Categories, in order
to validate their consistency, adequacy and accuracy. In addition to
some noteworthy differences, we found a certain coherence and
homogeneity among the four classification systems analysed. (C) 2014

Abstract:
Citation based approaches, such as the impact factor and h-index, have
been used to measure the influence or impact of journals for journal
rankings. A survey of the related literature for different disciplines
shows that the level of correlation between these citation based
approaches is domain dependent. We analyze the correlation between the
impact factors and h-indices of the top ranked computer science journals
for five different subjects. Our results show that the correlation
between these citation based approaches is very low. Since using a
different approach can result in different journal rankings, we further
combine the different results and then re-rank the journals using a
combination method. These new ranking results can be used as a reference
for researchers to choose their publication outlets. (C) 2014 Elsevier

Abstract:
Bibliometrics and citation analysis have become important sets of
methods for library and information science, as well as exceptional
sources of information and knowledge for many other areas. Their main
sources are citation indices, which are *bibliographic* databases like
Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar, etc. However, *bibliographical*
databases lack perfection and standardization. There are several
software tools that perform useful information management and
bibliometric analysis importing data from them. A comparison has been
carried out to identify which of them perform certain pre-processing
tasks. Usually, they are not strong enough to detect all the
duplications, mistakes, misspellings and variant names, leaving to the
user the tedious and time-consuming task of correcting the data.
Furthermore, some of them do not import datasets from different citation
indices, but mainly from Web of Science (WoS).
A new software tool, called STICCI.eu (Software Tool for Improving and
Converting Citation Indices - enhancing uniformity), which is freely
available online, has been created to solve these problems. STICCI.eu is
able to do conversions between *bibliographical* citation formats (WoS,
Scopus, CSV, BibTex, RIS), correct the usual mistakes appearing in those
databases, detect duplications, misspellings, etc., identify and
transform the full or abbreviated titles of the journals, homogenize
toponymical names of countries and relevant cities or regions and list
the processed data in terms of the most cited authors, journals,
references, etc. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Title:
Do Article Influence scores overestimate the citation impact of social science *journals* in subfields that are related to higher-impact natural science disciplines?

Abstract:
Unlike Impact Factors (IF), Article Influence (AI) scores assign greater
weight to citations that appear in highly cited journals. The natural
sciences tend to have higher citation rates than the social sciences. We
might therefore expect that relative to IF, AI overestimates the
citation impact of social science journals in subfields that are related
to (and presumably cited in) higher-impact natural science disciplines.
This study evaluates that assertion through a set of simple and multiple
regressions covering seven social science disciplines: anthropology,
communication, economics, education, library and information science,
psychology, and sociology. Contrary to expectations. AI underestimates
5IF (five-year Impact Factor) for journals in science-related subfields
such as scientific communication, science education, *scientometrics*,
biopsychology, and medical sociology. journals in these subfields have
low AI scores relative to their 5IF values. Moreover, the effect of
science-related status is considerable typically 0.60 5IF units or 0.50
SD. This effect is independent of the more general finding that AI
scores underestimate 5IF for higher-impact journals. It is also
independent of the very modest curvilinearity in the relationship
between AI and 5IF. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Abstract:
In the present paper the Percentage Rank Position (PRP) index concluding
from the principle of Similar Distribution of Information Impact in
different fields of science (Vinkler, 2013), is suggested to assess
journals in different research fields comparatively. The publications in
the journals dedicated to a field are ranked by citation frequency, and
the PRP-index of the papers in the elite set of the field is calculated.
The PRP-index relates the citation rank number of the paper to the total
number of papers in the corresponding set. The sum of the PRP-index of
the elite papers in a journal, PRP(j,F) may represent the eminence of
the journal in the field. The non-parametric and non-dimensional
PRP(j,F) index of journals is believed to be comparable across fields.

Abstract:
Some 1,857 highly cited reviews, namely those cited at least 1,000 times
since publication to 2011, were identified using the data hosted on the
Science Citation Index Expanded (TM) ae database (Thomson Reuters, New
York, NY) between 1899 and 2011. The data are disaggregated by
publication date, citation counts, journals, Web of Science (R) (Thomson
Reuters) subject areas, citation life cycles, and publications by Nobel
Prize winners. Six indicators, total publications, independent
publications, collaborative publications, first-author publications,
corresponding-author publications, and single-author publications were
applied to evaluate publication of institutions and countries. Among the
highly cited reviews, 33% were single-author, 61% were
singleinstitution, and 83% were single-country reviews. The United
States ranked top for all 6 indicators. The G7 (United States, United
Kingdom, Germany, Canada, France, Japan, and Italy) countries were the
site of almost all the highly cited reviews. The top 12 most productive
institutions were all located in the United States with Harvard
University (Cambridge, MA) the leader. The top 3 most productive
journals were Chemical Reviews, Nature, and the Annual Review of
Biochemistry. In addition, the impact of the reviews was analyzed by
total citations from publication to 2011, citations in 2011, and
citation in publication year.

Title:
The Effect on Citation Inequality of Differences in Citation Practices at the Web of Science Subject Category Level

Abstract:
This article studies the impact of differences in citation practices at
the subfield, or Web of Science subject category level, using the model
introduced in Crespo, Li, and Ruiz-Castillo (2013a), according to which
the number of citations received by an article depends on its underlying
scientific influence and the field to which it belongs. We use the same
Thomson Reuters data set of about 4.4 million articles used in Crespo et
al. (2013a) to analyze 22 broad fields. The main results are the
following: First, when the classification system goes from 22 fields to
219 subfields the effect on citation inequality of differences in
citation practices increases from similar to 14% at the field level to
18% at the subfield level. Second, we estimate a set of exchange rates
(ERs) over a wide [660, 978] citation quantile interval to express the
citation counts of articles into the equivalent counts in the
all-sciences case. In the fractional case, for example, we find that in
187 of 219 subfields the ERs are reliable in the sense that the
coefficient of variation is smaller than or equal to 0.10. Third, in the
fractional case the normalization of the raw data using the ERs (or
subfield mean citations) as normalization factors reduces the importance
of the differences in citation practices from 18% to 3.8% (3.4%) of
overall citation inequality. Fourth, the results in the fractional case
are essentially replicated when we adopt a multiplicative approach.

Abstract:
I propose the use of h-plots for visualizing the asymmetric
relationships between the citing and cited profiles of journals in a
commonmap. With this exploratory tool, we can understand better the
journal's dual roles of citing and being cited in a reference network.
The h-plot is introduced and its use is validated with a set of 25
journals belonging to the statistics area. The relatedness factor is
considered for describing the relations of citations from a journal "i"
to a journal "j," and the citations from the journal "j" to the journal
"i." More information has been extracted from the h-plot, compared with
other statistical techniques for modelling and representing asymmetric
data, such as multidimensional unfolding.

Abstract:
This article offers a comparative analysis of the personal profiling
capabilities of the two most important free citation-based academic
search engines, namely, Microsoft Academic Search (MAS) and Google
Scholar Citations (GSC). Author profiles can be useful for evaluation
purposes once the advantages and the shortcomings of these services are
described and taken into consideration. In total, 771 personal profiles
appearing in both the MAS and the GSC databases were analyzed. Results
show that the GSC profiles include more documents and citations than
those in MAS but with a strong bias toward the information and computing
sciences, whereas the MAS profiles are disciplinarily better balanced.
MAS shows technical problems such as a higher number of duplicated
profiles and a lower updating rate than GSC. It is concluded that both
services could be used for evaluation proposes only if they are applied
along with other citation indices as a way to supplement that
information.

Abstract:
The impact factor (IF) of scientific journals has acquired a major role
in the evaluations of the output of scholars, departments and whole
institutions. Typically papers appearing in journals with large values
of the IF receive a high weight in such evaluations. However, at the end
of the day one is interested in assessing the impact of individuals,
rather than papers. Here we introduce Author Impact Factor (AIF), which
is the extension of the IF to authors. The AIF of an author A in year t
is the average number of citations given by papers published in year t
to papers published by A in a period of Delta t years before year t. Due
to its intrinsic dynamic character, AIF is capable to capture trends and
variations of the impact of the scientific output of scholars in time,
unlike the h-index, which is a growing measure taking into account the
whole career path.

Abstract:
Background: Biomedical research has grown considerably in the last few
decades, and the authorship characteristics of the dental literature as
a whole and of its specialty fields has changed significantly.
Unfortunately, the bibliometrics of the periodontal literature have not
been thoroughly investigated. The aim of this study is to investigate
the bibliometrics of periodontal literature, assessing the geographic
origin, study design, and topics investigated in periodontal research
published from 1995 to 2010.
Methods: Articles published in periodontal journals during 1995 to 2010
were retrieved through hand search. Inclusion/exclusion criteria were
applied. The following variables were extrapolated from each article:
number of authors, study design, topic investigated, financial support,
and geographic origin. The general linear model assessed the influence
of independent variables on number of authors per article, and x(2) test
assessed the statistical difference of the variables over years 1995 to
2010.
Results: A total of 2,260 articles were reviewed; 2,076 met the
inclusion criteria. The number of authors per article increased (P <
0.001) from 4.0 (1995) to 5.1 (2010). The proportion of articles
published from North America and Europe decreased (P < 0.001) from 84.3%
(1995) to 58.6% (2010), whereas for Asia and South America the article
proportion increased (P < 0.001) from 13.8% (1995) to 40% (2010).
Research targeting prevention and treatment of periodontal disease is
decreasing (P < 0.001) in favor of implant-related research.
Governmental research funding is increasing (P < 0.001).
Conclusion: Periodontal research significantly changed during the last
15 years.

Abstract:
Science linkage is a widely used patent bibliometric indicator to
measure patent linkage to scientific research based on the frequency of
citations to scientific papers within the patent. Science linkage is
also regarded as noisy because the subject of patent citation behavior
varies from inventors/applicants to examiners. In order to identify and
ultimately reduce this noise, we analyzed the different citing
motivations of examiners and inventors/applicants. We built 4 hypotheses
based upon our study of patent law, the unique economic nature of a
patent, and a patent citation's market effect. To test our hypotheses,
we conducted an expert survey based on our science linkage calculation
in the domain of catalyst from U. S. patent data (2006-2009) over 3
types of citations: self-citation by inventor/applicant,
non-self-citation by inventor/applicant, and citation by examiner.
According to our results, evaluated by domain experts, we conclude that
the non-self-citation by inventor/applicant is quite noisy and cannot
indicate science linkage and that self-citation by inventor/applicant,
although limited, is more appropriate for understanding science linkage.

Abstract:
One problem confronting the use of citation-based metrics in science
studies and research evaluations is the Matthew effect. This paper
reviews the role of citations in science and decomposes the Matthew
effect in citations into three components: networking, prestige, and
appropriateness. The networking and prestige effects challenge the
validity of citation-based metrics, but the appropriateness effect does
not. Using panel data of 1279 solo-authored papers' citation histories
and fixed effects models, we test these three effects controlling for
unobserved paper characteristics. We find no evidence of retroactive
networking effect and only weak evidence of prestige effect (very small
and not always significant), which provides some support for the use of
citation-based metrics in science studies and evaluation practices. In
addition, adding the appropriateness effect reduces the size of the
prestige effect considerably, suggesting that previous studies
controlling for paper quality but not appropriateness may have
overestimated the prestige effect. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

Abstract:
The distribution of impact factors has been modeled in the recent
informetric literature using two-exponent law proposed by Mansilla,
Koppen, Cocho, and Miramontes (2007). This paper shows that two
distributions widely-used in economics, namely the Dagum and
Singh-Maddala models, possess several advantages over the two-exponent
model. Compared to the latter, the former models give as good as or
slightly better fit to data on impact factors in eight important
scientific fields. In contrast to the two-exponent model, both proposed
distributions have closed-from probability density functions and
cumulative distribution functions, which facilitates fitting these
distributions to data and deriving their statistical properties. (C)

Abstract:
This paper shows how bibliometric models can be used to assist peers in
selecting candidates for academic openings.
Several studies have demonstrated that a relationship exists between
results from peer-review evaluations and results obtained with certain
bibliometric indicators. However, very little has been done to analyse
the predictive power of models based on bibliometric indicators.
Indicators with high predictive power will be seen as good instruments
to support peer evaluations. The goal of this study is to assess the
predictive power of a model based on bibliometric indicators for the
results of academic openings at the level of Associado and Catedratico
at Portuguese universities. Our results suggest that the model can
predict the results of peer-review at this level with a reasonable
degree of accuracy. This predictive power is better when only the
scientific performance is assessed by peers. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All

Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: The relationship between metrics, such as the h-index, and
the ability of researchers to generate funding has not been previously
investigated in neurosurgery. This study was performed to determine
whether a correlation exists between bibliometrics and National
Institutes of Health (NIH) funding data among academic neurosurgeons.
METHODS: The h-index, m-quotient, g-index, and contemporary h-index were
determined for 1225 academic neurosurgeons from 99 (of 101) departments.
Two databases were used to create the citation profiles, Google Scholar
and Scopus. The NIH Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools
Expenditures and Reports tool was accessed to obtain career grant
funding amount, grant number, year of first grant award, and calendar
year of grant funding.
RESULTS: Of the 1225 academic neurosurgeons, 182 (15%) had at least 1
grant with a fully reported NIH award profile. Bibliometric indices were
all significantly higher for those with NIH funding compared to those
without NIH funding (P<.001). The contemporary h-index was found to be
significantly predictive of NIH funding (P<.001). All bibliometric
indices were significantly associated with the total number of grants,
total award amount, year of first grant, and duration of grants in
calendar years (bivariate correlation, P<.001) except for the
association of m-quotient with year of first grant (P = .184).
CONCLUSIONS: Bibliometric indices are higher for those with NIH funding
compared to those without, but only the contemporary h-index was shown
to be predictive of NIH funding. Among neurosurgeons with NIH funding,
higher bibliometric scores were associated with greater total amount of
funding, number of grants, duration of grants, and earlier acquisition
of their first grant.

Abstract:
A model based on a set of bibliometric indicators is proposed for the
prediction of the ranking of applicants to an academic position as
produced by a committee of peers. The results show that a very small
number of indicators may lead to a robust prediction of about 75% of the
cases.
We start with 12 indicators to build a few composite indicators by
factor analysis. Following a discrete choice model, we arrive at 3
comparatively good predicative models. We conclude that these models
have a surprisingly good predictive power and may help peers in their
selection process.

Abstract:
Google Scholar has been well received by the research community. Its
promises of free, universal, and easy access to scientific literature
coupled with the perception that it covers the social sciences and the
humanities better than other traditional multidisciplinary databases
have contributed to the quick expansion of Google Scholar Citations and
Google Scholar Metrics: 2 new bibliometric products that offer citation
data at the individual level and at journal level. In this article, we
show the results of an experiment undertaken to analyze Google Scholar's
capacity to detect citation-counting manipulation. For this, we uploaded
6 documents to an institutional web domain that were authored by a
fictitious researcher and referenced all the publications of the members
of the EC3 research group at the University of Granada. The detection by
Google Scholar of these papers caused an outburst in the number of
citations included in the Google Scholar Citations profiles of the
authors. We discuss the effects of such an outburst and how it could
affect the future development of such products, at both the individual
level and the journal level, especially if Google Scholar persists with
its lack of transparency.

Abstract:
Bioinformatics is a fast-growing field based on the optimal use of "big
data" gathered in genomic, proteomics, and functional genomics research.
In this paper, we conduct a comprehensive and in-depth bibliometric
analysis of the field of bioinformatics by extracting citation data from
PubMed Central full-text. Citation data for the period 2000 to 2011,
comprising 20,869 papers with 546,245 citations, was used to evaluate
the productivity and influence of this emerging field. Four measures
were used to identify productivity; most productive authors, most
productive countries, most productive organizations, and most popular
subject terms. Research impact was analyzed based on the measures of
most cited papers, most cited authors, emerging stars, and leading
organizations. Results show the overall trends between the periods 2000
to 2003 and 2004 to 2007 were dissimilar, while trends between the
periods 2004 to 2007 and 2008 to 2011 were similar. In addition, the
field of bioinformatics has undergone a significant shift, co-evolving
with other biomedical disciplines.

Abstract:
Using citation data of articles written by some Nobel Prize winners in
physics, we show that concave, convex, and straight curves represent
different types of interactions between old ideas and new insights.
These cases illustrate different diffusion characteristics of academic
knowledge, depending on the nature of the knowledge in the new
publications. This work adds to the study of the development of science
and links this development to citation analysis.

Title: The Effect on Citation Inequality of Differences in Citation Practices at the Web of Science Subject Category Level

Abstract: This article studies the impact of differences in citation practices at the subfield, or Web of Science subject category level, using the model introduced in Crespo, Li, and Ruiz-Castillo (2013a), according to which the number of citations received by an article depends on its underlying scientific influence and the field to which it belongs. We use the same Thomson Reuters data set of about 4.4 million articles used in Crespo et al. (2013a) to analyze 22 broad fields. The main results are the following: First, when the classification system goes from 22 fields to 219 subfields the effect on citation inequality of differences in citation practices increases from similar to 14% at the field level to 18% at the subfield level. Second, we estimate a set of exchange rates (ERs) over a wide [660, 978] citation quantile interval to express the citation counts of articles into the equivalent counts in the all-sciences case. In the fractional case, for example, we find that in 187 of 219 subfields the ERs are reliable in the sense that the coefficient of variation is smaller than or equal to 0.10. Third, in the fractional case the normalization of the raw data using the ERs (or subfield mean citations) as normalization factors reduces the importance of the differences in citation practices from 18% to 3.8% (3.4%) of overall citation inequality. Fourth, the results in the fractional case are essentially replicated when we adopt a multiplicative approach.

Abstract: The journal impact factor is not comparable among fields of science and social science because of systematic differences in publication and citation behavior across disciplines. In this work, a source normalization of the journal impact factor is proposed. We use the aggregate impact factor of the citing journals as a measure of the citation potential in the journal topic, and we employ this citation potential in the normalization of the journal impact factor to make it comparable between scientific fields. An empirical application comparing some impact indicators with our topic normalized impact factor in a set of 224 journals from four different fields shows that our normalization, using the citation potential in the journal topic, reduces the betwen-group variance with respect to the within-group variance in a higher proportion than the rest of indicators analyzed. The effect of journal self-citations over the normalization process is also studied. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
