Abstract:
Evaluative bibliometrics compare the citation impact of researchers,
research groups and institutions with each other across time scales and
disciplines. Both factors, discipline and period - have an influence on
the citation count which is independent of the quality of the
publication. Normalizing the citation impact of papers for these two
factors started in the mid-1980s. Since then, a range of different
methods have been presented for producing normalized citation impact
scores. The current study uses a data set of over 50,000 records to test
which of the methods so far presented correlate better with the
assessment of papers by peers. The peer assessments come from F1000Prime
- a post-publication peer review system of the biomedical literature. Of
the normalized indicators, the current study involves not only
cited-side indicators, such as the mean normalized citation score, but
also citing-side indicators. As the results show, the correlations of
the indicators with the peer assessments all turn out to be very
similar. Since F1000 focuses on biomedicine, it is important that the
results of this study are validated by other studies based on datasets
from other disciplines or (ideally) based on multi-disciplinary
datasets. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Title:
Do PageRank-based author rankings outperform simple *citation* counts?

Abstract:
The basic indicators of a researcher's productivity and impact are still
the number of publications and their citation counts. These metrics are
clear, straightforward, and easy to obtain. When a ranking of scholars
is needed, for instance in grant, award, or promotion procedures, their
use is the fastest and cheapest way of prioritizing some scientists over
others. However, due to their nature, there is a danger of
oversimplifying scientific achievements. Therefore, many other
indicators have been proposed including the usage of the PageRank
algorithm known for the ranking of webpages and its modifications suited
to citation networks. Nevertheless, this recursive method is
computationally expensive and even if it has the advantage of favouring
prestige over popularity, its application should be well justified,
particularly when compared to the standard citation counts. In this
study, we analyze three large datasets of computer science papers in the
categories of artificial intelligence, software engineering, and theory
and methods and apply 12 different ranking methods to the citation
networks of authors. We compare the resulting rankings with selfcompiled
lists of outstanding researchers selected as frequent editorial board
members of prestigious journals in the field and conclude that there is
no evidence of PageRank-based methods outperforming simple citation
counts. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Abstract:
Journal impact factors (JIFs) are widely used and promoted but have
important limitations. In particular, JIFs can be unduly influenced by
individual highly cited articles and hence are inherently unstable. A
logical way to reduce the impact of individual high citation counts is
to use the geometric mean rather than the standard mean in JIF
calculations. Based upon journal rankings 2004-2014 in 50 sub-categories
within 5 broad categories, this study shows that journal rankings based
on JIF variants tend to be more stable over time if the geometric mean
is used rather than the standard mean. The same is true for JIF variants
using Mendeley reader counts instead of citation counts. Thus, although
the difference is not large, the geometric mean is recommended instead
of the arithmetic mean for future JIF calculations. In addition,
Mendeley readership-based JIF variants are as stable as those using
Scopus citations, confirming the value of Mendeley readership as an
academic impact indicator. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Abstract:
In general, scientometrics studies tend to focus on citations received
from journals (incoming citations) and usually neglect references to
journals (outgoing citations). The aim of this study is to suggest a new
approach to the journal *impact factor* on a wider scale, i.e., from the
viewpoint of citing journals. I studied how citations (references) given
by JCR journals contribute to the 2-year and 5-year journal impact
factors (JIF). To do so, data were obtained from the 2011 edition of JCR
(Science Edition) available for universities in Spain, and the citing
journal matrix for each journal was used. This matrix records the number
of times articles published in other journals (cited journals) were
cited in a given journal (citing journal) in 2011. The results showed
that a set of 50 journals produced about 15% of all references that
contributed to the 2-year JIF. Similarly, a set of 50 journals produced
about 13% of all references that contributed to the 5-year JIF. A
Bradford-like plot was obtained by plotting the cumulative number of
references that contributed to the 2-year and 5-year JIF against the
cumulative number of citing journals. The distribution of journals
according to the number and percentage of references they contributed to
the 2-year and 5-year JIF showed peaks. A rank-order distribution of
references that contributed to the 2-year and 5 year JIF was obtained
with a previously described empirical two-exponent equation. Based on
the maximum contribution to the 2-year JIF of different 2-year rolling
reference windows, the second rolling window (references to articles
published 2 and 3 years before 2011) made the greatest contribution to
impact in 41% of journals. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Abstract:
This study aims to explore the relationship between science and
technology via analyzing cross citations between papers and patents in
fuel cells. To calculate cross citation indicators, papers were
retrieved from the WOS database and patent data from the USPTO during
the period between 1991 and 2010, resulting in a total of 20,758 papers
and 8112 patents. This study shows that there is a gradually increasing
convergence between science and technology, particularly of science
linkage in recent years. Papers citing patents are more time-sensitive
than patents citing papers. Academic institutions are more likely to
cite papers and patents published by other academic institutions. (c)

Abstract:
By following the recently published paper in Science titled "Coercive
Citation in Academic Publishing", in this paper, we aim to discuss the
demand of some journals that request authors to cite recently published
papers in that journal to increase the *impact factor* of that journal.
It will be mentioned that some of these demands are not ethical and
consequently will diminish the reputation of the journal.

Abstract:
A number of new metrics based on social media platforms-grouped under
the term "altmetrics" - have recently been introduced as potential
indicators of research impact. Despite their current popularity, there
is a lack of information regarding the determinants of these metrics.
Using publication and citation data from 1.3 million papers published in
2012 and covered in Thomson Reuters' Web of Science as well as social
media counts from Altmetric. com, this paper analyses the main patterns
of five social media metrics as a function of document characteristics
(i.e., discipline, document type, title length, number of pages and
references) and collaborative practices and compares them to patterns
known for citations. Results show that the presence of papers on social
media is low, with 21.5% of papers receiving at least one tweet, 4.7%
being shared on Facebook, 1.9% mentioned on blogs, 0.8% found on Google+
and 0.7% discussed in mainstream media. By contrast, 66.8% of papers
have received at least one citation. Our findings show that both
citations and social media metrics increase with the extent of
collaboration and the length of the references list. On the other hand,
while editorials and news items are seldom cited, it is these types of
document that are the most popular on Twitter. Similarly, while longer
papers typically attract more citations, an opposite trend is seen on
social media platforms. Finally, contrary to what is observed for
citations, it is papers in the Social Sciences and humanities that are
the most often found on social media platforms. On the whole, these
findings suggest that factors driving social media and citations are
different. Therefore, social media metrics cannot actually be seen as
alternatives to citations; at most, they may function as complements to
other type of indicators.

Abstract:
Bibliometrics are a set of methods, which can be used to analyze
academic literature quantitatively and its changes over time. The
objectives of this study were 1) to evaluate trends related to academic
performance of dental journals from 2003 to 2012 using bibliometric
indices, and 2) monitor the changes of the five dental journals with the
highest and lowest *impact factor* (IF) published in 2003. Data for the
subject category "Dentistry, Oral Surgery & Medicine" was retrieved from
the Journal Citation Reports (JCR) published from 2003 to 2012. Linear
regressions analysis was used to determine statistical trends over the
years with each bibliometric indicator as the dependent variable and the
JCR year as the predictor variable. Statistically significant rise in
the total number of dental journals, the number of all articles with the
steepest rise observed for research articles, the number of citations
and the aggregate IF was observed from 2003 to 2012. The analysis of the
five top and five bottom-tire dental journals revealed a rise in IF
however, with a wide variation in relation to the magnitude of this
rise. Although the IF of the top five journals remained relatively
constant, the percentile ranks of the four lowest ranking journals in
2003 increased significantly with the sharpest rise being noted for the
British Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery. This study revealed
significant growth of dental literature in absolute terms, as well as
upward trends for most of the citation-based bibliometric indices from
2003 to 2012.

Abstract:
The modern science has become more complex and interdisciplinary in its
nature which might encourage researchers to be more collaborative and
get engaged in larger collaboration networks. Various aspects of
collaboration networks have been examined so far to detect the most
determinant factors in knowledge creation and scientific production. One
of the network structures that recently attracted much theoretical
attention is called small world. It has been suggested that small world
can improve the information transmission among the network actors. In
this paper, using the data on 12 periods of journal publications of
Canadian researchers in natural sciences and engineering, the
co-authorship networks of the researchers are created. Through measuring
small world indicators, the small worldiness of the mentioned network
and its relation with researchers' productivity, quality of their
publications, and scientific team size are assessed. Our results show
that the examined co-authorship network strictly exhibits the small
world properties. In addition, it is suggested that in a small world
network researchers expand their team size through getting connected to
other experts of the field. This team size expansion may result in
higher productivity of the whole team as a result of getting access to
new resources, benefitting from the internal referring, and exchanging
ideas among the team members. Moreover, although small world network is
positively correlated with the quality of the articles in terms of both
citation count and journal *impact factor*, it is negatively related
with the average productivity of researchers in terms of the number of
their publications.

Abstract:
Background
The safety and health benefits of Tai Chi mind-body exercise has been
documented in a large number of clinical studies focused on specific
diseases and health conditions. The objective of this systematic review
is to more comprehensively summarize the evidence base of clinical
studies of Tai Chi for healthcare.
Methods and Findings
We searched for all types of clinical studies on Tai chi in PubMed, the
Cochrane Library and four major Chinese electronic databases from their
inception to July 2013. Data were analyzed using SPSS17.0 software. A
total of 507 studies published between 1958 and 2013 were identified,
including 43 (8.3%) systematic reviews of clinical studies, 255 (50.3%)
randomized clinical trials, 90 (17.8%) non-randomized controlled
clinical studies, 115 (22.7%) case series and 4 (0.8%) case reports. The
top 10 diseases/conditions was hypertension, diabetes, osteoarthritis,
osteoporosis or osteopenia, breast cancer, heart failure, chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease, coronary heart disease, schizophrenia,
and depression. Many healthy participants practiced Tai Chi for the
purpose of health promotion or preservation. Yang style Tai Chi was the
most popular, and Tai Chi was frequently practiced two to three 1-hour
sessions per week for 12 weeks. Tai Chi was used alone in more than half
of the studies (58.6%), while in other studies Tai Chi was applied in
combination with other therapies including medications, health education
and other physical therapies. The majority of studies (94.1%) reported
positive effects of Tai Chi, 5.1% studies reported uncertain effects and
0.8% studies reported negative effects. No serious adverse events
related to Tai Chi were reported.
Conclusions
The quantity and evidence base of clinical studies on Tai Chi is
substantial. However, there is a wide variation in Tai Chi intervention
studied and the reporting of Tai Chi intervention needs to be improved.
Further well-designed and reported studies are recommended to confirm
the effects of Tai Chi for the frequently reported diseases/conditions.

Abstract:
Bibliometric analysis of highly cited papers of a country can provide
interesting insights concerning authors, institutions, collaboration
patterns and even useful recommendations for future research policy. The
purpose of this study is to conduct biblio metric analysis of highly
cited papers from Taiwan. Data used in the study were extracted from the
SCI-Expanded database of the Web of Science Core Collection of Thomson
Reuters. Authorship, collaboration pattern and Y-index were reported.
Results showed that highly cited papers might not have high citations in
early years and may be published in journals with low impact factors.
International collaboration was responsible for the increasing number of
highly cited papers over the years. Institutions can be categorized into
three phenotypes and majority of the institutions were characterized
with high dependency and low leadership in the collaboration. The United
States was the leading choice for international collaboration, while
National Taiwan University was the leading choice of institutions for
domestic collaboration. With a few exceptions, leading authors tended to
be the corresponding author, rather than the first author as in previous
studies. It is speculated that this phenomenon may be due to a pecking
order among institutions, traditional Confucius values of seniority, and
inequality in resource allocation by funding agencies. Providing more
balanced research funding, increasing the number of PhD students
studying abroad, eliminating gift authorships, especially partners in a
project but not in papers and increasing the emphasis on independent
research may be needed to amend the observed patterns.

Abstract:
This study is a citation analysis of the top 100 most cited papers in
adult cardiac surgery. Bibliometric analyses are viewed as a proxy
marker of a paper's influence and, therefore, an analysis of the most
influential papers published in recent decades.
*Impact factor* ranking as of 2012 was used to decide which journals to
include in our searches. The Thompson Reuters Web of Knowledge was used
to search for citations of all papers relevant to cardiac surgery within
selected journals. Journals in the areas of surgery, cardiothoracic
surgery, general medicine, anaesthesia, perfusion and pathology were
included.
The most frequently cited paper was found to be that of Nashef et al.
(Eur J Cardiothorac Surg 16(1):9-13, 1999) introducing the EuroSCORE
operative risk evaluation system. A number of authors including
Alderman, Carpentier and Cox had more than one paper in the top 100.
Despite the potential flaws with bibliometric analysis, and its
application to cardiac surgery, there is inherent merit in an analysis
of this type.

Abstract:
Background: Abstract presentations at scientific congresses are a
preparation for publication in peer reviewed journals. The present study
aimed to investigate the prediction of abstract acceptance of peer
reviewed publications focusing on the difference between male and female
first authors.
Methods: We evaluated 8411 abstracts submitted to the German Cardiac
Society by 2090 females and 6321 male scientists. Abstract grading (3 to
9 reviewers, blinded on a 5-point scale) separated those accepted and
rejected followed by a bibliometric analysis of Medline publications
from 2006 to 2012.
Results: While rating of abstracts was not different between males and
females (p = 0.475), publication rate of females was lower compared to
males (17.5% vs 24.4 >= %, p < 0.001). Female authors achieved a higher
*impact factor* in their publications (5.1 +/- 0.2 vs 4.4 +/- 0.1, p =
0.0003) and were more often listed on papers in highly ranked journals
(*impact factor* = 5) than males. Although, more accepted abstracts than
rejected ones were published in high rank journals, a considerable
number of papers were generated from rejected abstracts (22%).
Conclusions: Female cardiologists had a better publication success than
males concerning high rank peer reviewed publications. Acceptance in
blinded abstract evaluation often detects work published later, while
rejected contributions still might represent high quality work suitable
for publication in peer reviewed journals. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ireland

Title:
A review on *citation* amnesia in depression and inflammation research

Abstract:
Once original scientific results are published the author has the
"intellectual property" and may claim ownership. Discovery credit is one
of the most important "rewards" for scientists and thus incorrect
credits undermine the reward system of science. Scientists who publish
should therefore give proper credit and acknowledge the primary sources.
Failure to do so is regarded as "citation negligence", "the disregard
syndrome", "citation amnesia", "plagiarism by omission", "bibliographic
plagiarism" or "citation plagiarism", and may range from an unconscious
or conscious "failure to credit a prior discoverer so as to give an
improper impression of priority" to "the appropriation of another
person's ideas or results without given proper credit". False discovery
credit is considered to be "a menace to honest science", "a serious
transgression" or "intellectual theft, be it intentional or not". This
paper describes some examples of citation amnesia showing that
scientists often fail to credit prior sources and give false discovery
credit to other scientists. One example is the association between major
depression and activated immuno-inflammatory pathways, a discovery by
European groups and published in many papers since 1990. Now, 25 years
later, it is commonplace that these theories are credited to secondary
American sources whose work in "the last decade", did or did not examine
these pathways in major depression. This gives an improper impression of
priority of American-based scientists. Here it is proposed that this
citation amnesia and plagiarism reinforced the wrong science and had
negative effects on the development of immune-inflammatory biomarkers
and new immune-related treatments for depression. It is concluded that
journal editors should improve their citation standards to guarantee
correct assignment of discovery credit for example by demanding a signed
pledge from the authors that correct citations to the primary sources
were made.

Abstract:
A variety of indicators have been created to measure the research
performance of journals, scientists, and institutions. There has been a
long-running debate on the use of indicators based on citation counts to
measure research quality. The key argument is that using indicators
based on raw citation counts to evaluate research quality lacks
measurement validity. Traditional reference formats do not present any
quality related evaluations of the citing authors toward their
references. It can be argued that the strength of peer evaluation to a
research output, which is taken to represent its quality, is the
elementary unit in the evaluation and comparison of research
performance. A good candidate for evaluating a piece of research is a
researcher who cites the research and knows it well. By accumulating
different citing authors' evaluations of their references based on a
uniform evaluation scheme and synthesizing the evaluations into a single
indicator, the qualities of research works, scientists, journals,
research groups, and institutions in different disciplines can be
assessed and compared. A method consisting of three components is
proposed: a reference evaluation scheme, a new reference format, and a
new indicator, called the average evaluation intensity. This method
combines the advantages of citation count analysis, citation motivation
analysis, and peer review, and may help to advance the debate. The
potential advantages of and main concerns about the proposed method are
discussed. The proposed method may serve as a preliminary theoretical
framework that can inspire and advance a quality-oriented approach to
the evaluation of research performance. At the current stage, it is best
to treat the proposed method as speculation and inspiration rather than
as a blueprint for practical implementation. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All

Abstract:
The entrepreneurial orientation is a crucial component of the
entrepreneurship and strategic fields. Since the 80s, more researchers
are studying the main characteristics of an entrepreneurial firm in
different contexts: reflecting risk-taking, innovativeness,
proactiveness, autonomy, and competitive aggressiveness (Miller, 1983;
Lumpkin et Dess, 1996; Basso et al. 2009). Today, no research was
interested to sum up the main works on this subject. This paper provides
a bibliometric study of articles over a period of thirteen decades
(2001-2013).
The bibliometric studies'aim is to understand the evolution of a
particular research field and to describe what appears (White and
McCain, 1998). The bibliometric studies are based on the mathematical
and statistical methods of patterns that appear in the publication
(Diodato, 1994, Ramos-Rodriguez and Ruiz-Navarro 2004). Based on this
aim, we conducted quantitative and qualitative analysis. A total of 312
papers were gathered from the EBSCO data base.

Abstract:
The article aims in analysis of selected bibliometric indicators on the
set of 15 Czech scientists in the field of economics, econometrics and
operations research. The data set is given from the Science Citation
Index (SCI) and the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI) of the Web of
Science. The performance of scientists with respect to their publication
activities is usually measured using their citation indices. Most often
used citation indicator is h-index (Hirsch-index) but many of its
modification have been proposed in the past years. The paper informs
about current indicators, analyses their relations and discusses their
advantages and disadvantages. A discussion about using bibliometric
indicators for evaluation of research performance of groups of
scientists (departments, faculties, universities) completes the study.

Abstract:
Evaluative bibliometrics compare the citation impact of researchers,
research groups and institutions with each other across time scales and
disciplines. Both factors, discipline and period - have an influence on
the citation count which is independent of the quality of the
publication. Normalizing the citation impact of papers for these two
factors started in the mid-1980s. Since then, a range of different
methods have been presented for producing normalized citation impact
scores. The current study uses a data set of over 50,000 records to test
which of the methods so far presented correlate better with the
assessment of papers by peers. The peer assessments come from F1000Prime
- a post-publication peer review system of the biomedical literature. Of
the normalized indicators, the current study involves not only
cited-side indicators, such as the mean normalized citation score, but
also citing-side indicators. As the results show, the correlations of
the indicators with the peer assessments all turn out to be very
similar. Since F1000 focuses on biomedicine, it is important that the
results of this study are validated by other studies based on datasets
from other disciplines or (ideally) based on multi-disciplinary
datasets. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Abstract:
The basic indicators of a researcher's productivity and impact are still
the number of publications and their citation counts. These metrics are
clear, straightforward, and easy to obtain. When a ranking of scholars
is needed, for instance in grant, award, or promotion procedures, their
use is the fastest and cheapest way of prioritizing some scientists over
others. However, due to their nature, there is a danger of
oversimplifying scientific achievements. Therefore, many other
indicators have been proposed including the usage of the PageRank
algorithm known for the ranking of webpages and its modifications suited
to citation networks. Nevertheless, this recursive method is
computationally expensive and even if it has the advantage of favouring
prestige over popularity, its application should be well justified,
particularly when compared to the standard citation counts. In this
study, we analyze three large datasets of computer science papers in the
categories of artificial intelligence, software engineering, and theory
and methods and apply 12 different ranking methods to the citation
networks of authors. We compare the resulting rankings with selfcompiled
lists of outstanding researchers selected as frequent editorial board
members of prestigious journals in the field and conclude that there is
no evidence of PageRank-based methods outperforming simple citation
counts. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Abstract:
Journal impact factors (JIFs) are widely used and promoted but have
important limitations. In particular, JIFs can be unduly influenced by
individual highly cited articles and hence are inherently unstable. A
logical way to reduce the impact of individual high citation counts is
to use the geometric mean rather than the standard mean in JIF
calculations. Based upon journal rankings 2004-2014 in 50 sub-categories
within 5 broad categories, this study shows that journal rankings based
on JIF variants tend to be more stable over time if the geometric mean
is used rather than the standard mean. The same is true for JIF variants
using Mendeley reader counts instead of citation counts. Thus, although
the difference is not large, the geometric mean is recommended instead
of the arithmetic mean for future JIF calculations. In addition,
Mendeley readership-based JIF variants are as stable as those using
Scopus citations, confirming the value of Mendeley readership as an
academic impact indicator. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Abstract:
Classically, unsupervised machine learning techniques are applied on
data sets with fixed number of attributes ( variables). However, many
problems encountered in the field of informetrics face us with the need
to extend these kinds of methods in a way such that they may be computed
over a set of nonincreasingly ordered vectors of unequal lengths. Thus,
in this paper, some new dissimilarity measures (metrics) are introduced
and studied. Owing to that we may use, e.g. hierarchical clustering
algorithms in order to determine an input data set's partition
consisting of sets of producers that are homogeneous not only with
respect to the quality of information resources, but also their
quantity. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Abstract:
The Italian National Scientific Qualification (ASN) was introduced in
2010 as part of a major reform of the national university system. Under
the new regulation, the scientific qualification for a specific role
(associate or full professor) and field of study is required to apply
for a permanent professor position. The ASN is peculiar since it makes
use of bibliometric indicators with associated thresholds as one of the
parameters used to assess applicants. The first round of the ASN
received 59,149 applications, and the results have been made publicly
available for a short period of time, including the values of the
quantitative indicators for each applicant. The availability of this
wealth of information provides an opportunity to draw a fairly detailed
picture of a nation-wide evaluation exercise, and to study the impact of
the bibliometric indicators on the qualification results. In this paper,
we provide a first account of the Italian National Scientific
Qualification from a quantitative point of view. We show that
significant differences exist among scientific disciplines, in
particular with respect to the fraction of qualified applicants, that
cannot be easily explained. Furthermore, we describe some issues related
to the definition and use of the bibliometric indicators and the
corresponding thresholds. Our analysis aims at drawing attention to
potential problems that should be addressed by decision-makers in future
rounds of the ASN. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Title:
Peer-Selected "Best Papers"-Are They Really That "Good"?

Abstract:
Background
Peer evaluation is the cornerstone of science evaluation. In this paper,
we analyze whether or not a form of peer evaluation, the pre-publication
selection of the best papers in Computer Science (CS) conferences, is
better than random, when considering future citations received by the
papers.
Methods
Considering 12 conferences (for several years), we collected the
citation counts from Scopus for both the best papers and the non-best
papers. For a different set of 17 conferences, we collected the data
from Google Scholar. For each data set, we computed the proportion of
cases whereby the best paper has more citations. We also compare this
proportion for years before 2010 and after to evaluate if there is a
propaganda effect. Finally, we count the proportion of best papers that
are in the top 10% and 20% most cited for each conference instance.
Results
The probability that a best paper will receive more citations than a non
best paper is 0.72 (95% CI = 0.66, 0.77) for the Scopus data, and 0.78
(95% CI = 0.74, 0.81) for the Scholar data. There are no significant
changes in the probabilities for different years. Also, 51% of the best
papers are among the top 10% most cited papers in each conference/year,
and 64% of them are among the top 20% most cited.
Discussion
There is strong evidence that the selection of best papers in Computer
Science conferences is better than a random selection, and that a
significant number of the best papers are among the top cited papers in
the conference.

Abstract:
The modern science has become more complex and interdisciplinary in its
nature which might encourage researchers to be more collaborative and
get engaged in larger collaboration networks. Various aspects of
collaboration networks have been examined so far to detect the most
determinant factors in knowledge creation and scientific production. One
of the network structures that recently attracted much theoretical
attention is called small world. It has been suggested that small world
can improve the information transmission among the network actors. In
this paper, using the data on 12 periods of journal publications of
Canadian researchers in natural sciences and engineering, the
co-authorship networks of the researchers are created. Through measuring
small world indicators, the small worldiness of the mentioned network
and its relation with researchers' productivity, quality of their
publications, and scientific team size are assessed. Our results show
that the examined co-authorship network strictly exhibits the small
world properties. In addition, it is suggested that in a small world
network researchers expand their team size through getting connected to
other experts of the field. This team size expansion may result in
higher productivity of the whole team as a result of getting access to
new resources, benefitting from the internal referring, and exchanging
ideas among the team members. Moreover, although small world network is
positively correlated with the quality of the articles in terms of both
citation count and journal impact factor, it is negatively related with
the average productivity of researchers in terms of the number of their
publications.

Abstract:
Bibliometric analysis of highly cited papers of a country can provide
interesting insights concerning authors, institutions, collaboration
patterns and even useful recommendations for future research policy. The
purpose of this study is to conduct biblio metric analysis of highly
cited papers from Taiwan. Data used in the study were extracted from the
SCI-Expanded database of the Web of Science Core Collection of Thomson
Reuters. Authorship, collaboration pattern and Y-index were reported.
Results showed that highly cited papers might not have high citations in
early years and may be published in journals with low impact factors.
International collaboration was responsible for the increasing number of
highly cited papers over the years. Institutions can be categorized into
three phenotypes and majority of the institutions were characterized
with high dependency and low leadership in the collaboration. The United
States was the leading choice for international collaboration, while
National Taiwan University was the leading choice of institutions for
domestic collaboration. With a few exceptions, leading authors tended to
be the corresponding author, rather than the first author as in previous
studies. It is speculated that this phenomenon may be due to a pecking
order among institutions, traditional Confucius values of seniority, and
inequality in resource allocation by funding agencies. Providing more
balanced research funding, increasing the number of PhD students
studying abroad, eliminating gift authorships, especially partners in a
project but not in papers and increasing the emphasis on independent
research may be needed to amend the observed patterns.

Abstract:
Various journal-ranking algorithms have been proposed, most of them
based on citation counts. This article introduces a new approach based
on the reciprocal direct influence of all pairs of a list of journals.
The proposed method is assessed against an opinion-based ranking
published in 2005 for 25 operations research and management science
(OR/MS) journals, and seven methods based on citation counts. The
results show a strong correlation with the opinion-based ranking. (C)

Abstract:
Background: Research rankings based on bibliometrics today dominate
governance in academia and determine careers in universities.
Method: Analytical approach to capture the incentives by users of
rankings and by suppliers of rankings, both on an individual and an
aggregate level.
Result: Rankings may produce unintended negative side effects. In
particular, rankings substitute the taste for science by a taste for
publication. We show that the usefulness of rankings rests on several
important assumptions challenged by recent research.
Conclusion: We suggest as alternatives careful socialization and
selection of scholars, supplemented by periodic self-evaluations and
awards. The aim is to encourage controversial discourses in order to
contribute meaningful to the advancement of science.

Abstract:
Background: Scholarly publishing is an essential vehicle for actively
participating in the scientific debate and for sustaining the invisible
colleges of the modern research environment, which extend far beyond the
borders of individual research institutions. However, its current
dynamics have deeply transformed the scientific life and conditioned in
new ways the economics of academic knowledge production. They have also
challenged the perceived common sense view of scientific research.
Method: Analytical approach to set out a comprehensive framework on the
current debate on scholarly publishing and to shed light on the peculiar
organization and the working of this peculiar productive sector.
Result: The way in which scientific knowledge is produced and
transmitted has been dramatically affected by the series of recent major
technosocietal transformations. Although the effects are many, in
particular the current overlap and interplay between two distinct and
somewhat opposite stancesscientific and economictend to blur the overall
understanding of what scholarly publishing is and produces distortion on
its working which in turn affect the scientific activities. The outcome
is thus a series of intended and unintended effects on the production
and dissemination of scientific knowledge.
Conclusion: The article suggests that a substantial transformation
characterizes science today that seems more like a thrusting,
entrepreneurial business than a contemplative, disinterested endeavor.
In this essay, we provide a general overview of the pivotal role of the
scholarly publishing in fostering this change and its pros and cons
connected to the idiosyncratic interplay between social norms and market
stances.

Abstract:
A variety of indicators have been created to measure the research
performance of journals, scientists, and institutions. There has been a
long-running debate on the use of indicators based on citation counts to
measure research quality. The key argument is that using indicators
based on raw citation counts to evaluate research quality lacks
measurement validity. Traditional reference formats do not present any
quality related evaluations of the citing authors toward their
references. It can be argued that the strength of peer evaluation to a
research output, which is taken to represent its quality, is the
elementary unit in the evaluation and comparison of research
performance. A good candidate for evaluating a piece of research is a
researcher who cites the research and knows it well. By accumulating
different citing authors' evaluations of their references based on a
uniform evaluation scheme and synthesizing the evaluations into a single
indicator, the qualities of research works, scientists, journals,
research groups, and institutions in different disciplines can be
assessed and compared. A method consisting of three components is
proposed: a reference evaluation scheme, a new reference format, and a
new indicator, called the average evaluation intensity. This method
combines the advantages of citation count analysis, citation motivation
analysis, and peer review, and may help to advance the debate. The
potential advantages of and main concerns about the proposed method are
discussed. The proposed method may serve as a preliminary theoretical
framework that can inspire and advance a quality-oriented approach to
the evaluation of research performance. At the current stage, it is best
to treat the proposed method as speculation and inspiration rather than
as a blueprint for practical implementation. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All

Abstract:
The article aims in analysis of selected bibliometric indicators on the
set of 15 Czech scientists in the field of economics, econometrics and
operations research. The data set is given from the Science Citation
Index (SCI) and the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI) of the Web of
Science. The performance of scientists with respect to their publication
activities is usually measured using their citation indices. Most often
used citation indicator is h-index (Hirsch-index) but many of its
modification have been proposed in the past years. The paper informs
about current indicators, analyses their relations and discusses their
advantages and disadvantages. A discussion about using bibliometric
indicators for evaluation of research performance of groups of
scientists (departments, faculties, universities) completes the study.

Abstract:
This study investigates how scientific performance in terms of
publication rate is influenced by the gender, age and academic position
of the researchers. Previous studies have shown that these factors are
important variables when analysing scientific productivity at the
individual level. What is new with our approach is that we have been
able to identify the relative importance of the different factors based
on regression analyses (OLS) of each major academic field. The study,
involving almost 12,400 Norwegian university researchers, shows that
academic position is more important than age and gender. In the fields
analysed, the regression model can explain 13.5-19 per cent of the
variance in the publication output at the levels of individuals. This
also means that most of the variance in publication rate is due to other
factors. (C) 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Abstract:
A number of new metrics based on social media platforms-grouped under
the term "altmetrics" - have recently been introduced as potential
indicators of research impact. Despite their current popularity, there
is a lack of information regarding the determinants of these metrics.
Using publication and citation data from 1.3 million papers published in
2012 and covered in Thomson Reuters' Web of Science as well as social
media counts from Altmetric. com, this paper analyses the main patterns
of five social media metrics as a function of document characteristics
(i.e., discipline, document type, title length, number of pages and
references) and collaborative practices and compares them to patterns
known for citations. Results show that the presence of papers on social
media is low, with 21.5% of papers receiving at least one tweet, 4.7%
being shared on Facebook, 1.9% mentioned on blogs, 0.8% found on Google+
and 0.7% discussed in mainstream media. By contrast, 66.8% of papers
have received at least one citation. Our findings show that both
citations and social media metrics increase with the extent of
collaboration and the length of the references list. On the other hand,
while editorials and news items are seldom cited, it is these types of
document that are the most popular on Twitter. Similarly, while longer
papers typically attract more citations, an opposite trend is seen on
social media platforms. Finally, contrary to what is observed for
citations, it is papers in the Social Sciences and humanities that are
the most often found on social media platforms. On the whole, these
findings suggest that factors driving social media and citations are
different. Therefore, social media metrics cannot actually be seen as
alternatives to citations; at most, they may function as complements to
other type of indicators.
