构建期刊影响因子四分位数用于学业评价的实证研究

Building Journal Impact Factor Quartile into the Assessment of Academic Performance: A Case Study

Keziban Orbay, Ruben Miranda, Metin Orbay

摘要:

本研究旨在提供关于Q概念的信息,Q概念定义为基于给定的领域类别将期刊影响因子划分为四分位数,从而消除直接使用期刊影响因子所带来的缺点。虽然“发表在科学网(WoS)数据库索引期刊(如SCI,SSCI和A&HCI)上的原始文章数量”是土耳其研究评估的一个重要指标,但这些论文的期刊影响因子和Q概念都没有考虑在内。本研究使用Q概念分析了2014-2018年期间阿马西亚大学研究人员在WoS数据库索引的期刊中的科学成果。Q类期刊的出版物份额以及阿马西亚大学作品的平均引用率与土耳其和世界其他不同国家的平均情况进行了比较。结果表明,Amasya大学研究人员发表的论文大多发表在低影响因子期刊(Q4期刊)(36.49%),事实上,只有一小部分论文发表在高影响因子期刊(Q1期刊)(14.32%)。阿马西亚大学的研究人员在低影响力期刊上发表的论文比例高于土耳其的平均水平,远远高于科学领先国家。在Q1期刊上发表的论文的平均引用量是在Q4期刊上发表的论文的6倍左右(8.92 vs. 1.56),因此在Q1期刊上发表的论文获得了30.02%的引用,尽管只有14.32%的论文发表在这些期刊上。WoS从未引用的论文比例为27.48%,从Q1的9.68%上升到Q4的近一半(48.10%)。最后,本研究就如何以及在何处使用Q概念提出了一些建议。

英文摘要:

This study aims to provide information about the Q Concept defined as the division of journal impact factors into quartiles based on given field categories so that the disadvantages resulting from the direct use of journal impact factors can be eliminated. While the number of "Original articles published in the Web of Science (WoS) database-indexed journals like SCI, SSCI and A&HCI" is an important indicator for research assessment in Turkey, neither the journal impact factors nor the Q Concept of these papers have been taken into account. Present study analyzes the scientific production of the Amasya University researchers in journals indexed in WoS database in the period 2014-2018 using the Q concept. The share of publications by Q category journals as well as the average citations received by the works from Amasya University were compared to the average situation in Turkey and other different countries in the world. Results indicate that the articles published by Amasya University researchers were mostly published in low impact factor journals (Q4 journals) (36.49%), in fact, only a small share of papers were published in high impact journals (14.32% in Q1 journals). The share of papers published in low impact journals by researchers from Amasya University is higher than the Turkish average and much higher than the scientific leading countries. The average citations received by papers published in Q1 journals was around six times higher than papers published in Q4 journals (8.92 vs. 1.56), thus papers published in Q1 journals received 30.02% citations despite only 14.32% of the papers was published in these journals. The share of papers published which were never cited in WoS was 27.48%, increasing from 9.68% in Q1 to almost half (48.10%) in Q4. The study concludes with some suggestions on how and where the Q Concept can be used.
