Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis of Editor Behavior through Potentially Coercive Citations

Claudiu Herteliu, Marcel Ausloos, Bogdan Vasile Ileanu, Giulia Rotundo, Tudorel Andrei

摘要:

一个排名很好的期刊的编辑,在他或她被任命后被引用,他或她的h指数提高了多少?学术界对科学的认可度现在广泛地用被引用的次数或h指数来衡量。我们的数据集是基于一个样本的四个编辑从一个排名良好的期刊(影响因子- IF -大于2)。目标群体包括两名编辑,他们似乎通过增加期刊内的引用数量(以及随后的h指数)而受益于他们的职位。目标群体的总引文量大于600。控制组由来自同一期刊的另两名编辑组成,他们的职位和引文记录之间的关系保持中立。对照组的总引文量超过1200篇。研究引文模式的时间跨度为1975-2015年。以前为了期刊利益(增加其IF)而强制引用已经发出信号。据我们所知,这是一个开创性的工作,强制引用个人(或编辑)的利益。编辑团队应该意识到这种潜在的不道德行为,并采取相应的行动。

英文摘要:

How much is the h-index of an editor of a well ranked journal improved due to citations which occur after his or her appointment? Scientific recognition within academia is widely measured nowadays by the number of citations or h-index. Our dataset is based on a sample of four editors from a well ranked journal (impact factor - IF - greater than 2). The target group consists of two editors who seem to benefit by their position through an increased citation number (and subsequently h-index) within journal. The total amount of citations for the target group is bigger than 600. The control group is formed by another set of two editors from the same journal whose relations between their positions and their citation records remain neutral. The total amount of citations for the control group is more than 1200. The timespan for which pattern of citations has been studied is 1975-2015. Previous coercive citations for a journal benefit (increase its IF) has been signaled. To the best of our knowledge, this is a pioneering work on coercive citations for personal (or editors) benefit. Editorial teams should be aware about this type of potentially unethical behavior and act accordingly.
