科学文献是否有销售截止日期?科学文献耐久性分析的一般方法
Is scientific literature subject to a sell-by-date? A general methodology to analyze the durability of scientific documents
摘要:
文献的引文历史和老化的研究是从几个角度讨论的主题,特别是在分析延迟识别或睡美人的文献中。然而,没有一种通用的方法可以广泛应用于不同的时间段和/或研究领域。本文提出了一种新的科学论文老化和耐久性综合分析方法。该方法将文献分为三种类型:延迟文献,其引用的主要部分晚于正常文献;昙花一现,其在出版后立即收到引用,但长期不被引用;正常文献,随着时间的推移具有典型的引用分布的文献。考虑到Web of Science中至少有5次外部引用(即不考虑自引)的整个文档群体,对这三种类型的耐久性进行了分析。已经发现了与三种类型的耐久性相关的几种模式,并讨论了所开发的方法的进一步研究的潜力。
英文摘要:
The study of the citation histories and ageing of documents are topics that have been addressed from several perspectives, especially in the analysis of documents with delayed recognition or sleeping beauties. However, there is no general methodology that can be extensively applied for different time periods and/or research fields. In this paper a new methodology for the general analysis of the ageing and durability of scientific papers is presented. This methodology classifies documents into three general types: Delayed documents, which receive the main part of their citations later than normal documents; Flash in the pans, which receive citations immediately after their publication but they are not cited in the long term; and Normal documents, documents with a typical distribution of citations over time. These three types of durability have been analyzed considering the whole population of documents in the Web of Science with at least 5 external citations (i.e. not considering self-citations). Several patterns related to the three types of durability have been found and the potential for further research of the developed methodology is discussed.
