科学计量学与传播理论:走向理论上知情的指标

Scientometrics and Communication Theory: Towards Theoretically Informed Indicators

Loet Leydesdorff, Peter Van den Besselaar

摘要:

引文理论不应该把被引者和/或被引者作为其唯一的研究对象。人们还能够研究通信网络中的动态。当通信代理(例如,作者、实验室、期刊)在其出版物和引用计数方面可以进行比较,人们会期望通信网络不是同质的。网络的潜在结构表明,不同的编码跨越一个空间的可能的“预防措施”。从进化的角度可以假设各种子动力。以《科学与技术研究》中的期刊间引文网络为例,分析了这种次动力机制的运作。将阐述理论驱动型科学计量学的政策影响和后果。

英文摘要:

A theory of citations should not consider cited and/or citing agents as its sole subject of study. One is able to study also the dynamics in the networks of communications. While communicating agents (e.g., authors, laboratories, journals) can be made comparable in terms of their publication and citation counts, one would expect the communication networks not to be homogeneous. The latent structures of the network indicate different codifications that span a space of possible 'translations'. The various subdynamics can be hypothesized from an evolutionary perspective. Using the network of aggregated journal-journal citations in Science & Technology Studies as an empirical case, the operation of such subdynamics can be demonstrated. Policy implications and the consequences for a theory-driven type of scientometrics will be elaborated.
