The study of scientometrics has increasingly become vital in mapping the trajectory of scientific progress and understanding the dynamics of academic research (Rivera et al., 2024). Scientometrics, the quantitative study of science, technology, and innovation, plays a crucial role in comprehending the development and dissemination of scientific knowledge (Xu et al., 2024). By analyzing publication patterns, citation networks, and research trends, scientometric studies provide essential insights into the dynamics of scientific progress and the impact of research on society (Cortés, 2023). This special issue of Clío América is dedicated to presenting a series of scientometric reviews that shed light on various aspects, including agricultural and environmental sustainability, organic coffee production, avocado cultivation, entrepreneurship, inclusive marketing, dynamic capabilities, e-leadership, and sustainable tourism. Despite its importance, scientometric research faces several challenges. Data accessibility and quality are often limited, making comprehensive analyses difficult (Chi & Glänzel, 2024; Cortés, 2023). The complexity of integrating data from multiple sources, such as Scopus and Web of Science, poses additional hurdles (Lin, Y et al., 2023). Moreover, the rapid growth of scientific literature necessitates advanced tools and methodologies to effectively analyze and interpret vast amounts of information (Bornmann & Lepori, 2024; Sourati & Evans, 2023).

 

 

Background: As an important platform for researchers to present their academic findings, medical journals have a close relationship between their evaluation orientation and the value orientation of their published research results. However, the differences between the academic impact and level of disruptive innovation of medical journals have not been examined by any study yet. Objective: This study aims to compare the relationships and differences between the academic impact, disruptive innovation levels, and peer review results of medical journals and published research papers. We also analyzed the similarities and differences in the impact evaluations, disruptive innovations, and peer reviews for different types of medical research papers and the underlying reasons. Methods: The general and internal medicine Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE) journals in 2018 were chosen as the study object to explore the differences in the academic impact and level of disruptive innovation of medical journals based on the OpenCitations Index of PubMed open PMID-to-PMID citations (POCI) and H1Connect databases, respectively, and we compared them with the results of peer review. Results: First, the correlation coefficients of the Journal Disruption Index (JDI) with the Journal Cumulative Citation for 5 years (JCC5), Journal Impact Factor (JIF), and Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) were 0.677, 0.585, and 0.621, respectively. The correlation coefficient of the absolute disruption index (Dz) with the Cumulative Citation for 5 years (CC5) was 0.635. However, the average difference in the disruptive innovation and academic influence rankings of journals reached 20 places (about 17.5%). The average difference in the disruptive innovation and influence rankings of research papers reached about 2700 places (about 17.7%). The differences reflect the essential difference between the two evaluation systems. Second, the top 7 journals selected based on JDI, JCC5, JIF, and JCI were the same, and all of them were H-journals. Although 8 (8/15, 53%), 96 (96/150, 64%), and 880 (880/1500, 58.67%) of the top 0.1%, top 1%, and top 10% papers selected based on Dz and CC5, respectively, were the same. Third, research papers with the “changes clinical practice” tag showed only moderate innovation (4.96) and impact (241.67) levels but had high levels of peer-reviewed recognition (6.00) and attention (2.83).

 

 

Bibliometrics in the social sciences, humanities and arts (SSHA) are hampered by the limited presence of scholarly journals in analysis tools traditionally used. We analyzed the level of indexing of Canadian journal author affiliations in Dimensions.ai and OpenAlex to assess effects on bibliometric research. Annually, around 3,500 articles signed by Canadian researchers and published in Canadian journals remained irretrievable. Incomplete indexing particularly affects journals associated with not-for-profit publishers and those publishing in French. A fair representation of national SSHA research could enhance our understanding of publishing trends and contribute to the sustainability of the Canadian journals.

 

 

This study investigates the use of institutional repositories (IR) for self-archiving journal articles in the U15 universities as well as the presence of institutional policies and publisher embargos. While 45.1% to 56.6% of publications are available in open access (OA), only 0.5% to 10.7% are found in the IRs. We found only three university-wide OA policies, and embargo periods of 12 months or more for 25.6% of journal policies. This suggests that IR play a minor role in OA practices, and a need for more policies related to self-archiving and the use of IR specifically.

 

 

Responsible assessment promotes expert judgment and opposes sole reliance on research metrics when assessing research excellence. While many institutions and national research panels declare commitment to responsible assessment practices, we ask: have these declarations affected the outcomes of research evaluation? Using data from the UK’s 2021 national research quality exercise and focusing on the business and management discipline, we show that the strong association between journal rankings and expert evaluations has not changed, despite institutional endorsements of DORA (Declaration on Research Assessment). Additionally, we find that this correlation is strongest for the most prestigious journals. The implications of these findings are profound: they enhance understanding of the use of metrics in research evaluations post-DORA and highlight potential constraints in the deployment of responsible assessment.

 

 

Background and Aims: After conducting a comprehensive literature search of two medical electronic databases, PubMed and Embase, as well as two citation databases, Web of Science Core Collections (WoS) and Scopus, we aimed to conduct an Altmetric and Scientometric analysis of the History of Medicine literature in medical research. Methods: The following software tools were used for analyzing the retrieved records from PubMed and Embase databases and conducting a collaboration analysis to identify the countries involved in scientific medical papers, as well as clustering keywords to reveal the trend of History of Medicine research for the future. These software tools (VOSviewer 1.6.18 and Spss 16) allowed the researchers to visualize bibliometric networks, perform statistical analysis, and identify patterns and trends in the data. Results: Our analysis revealed 53,771 records from PubMed and 54,405 records from EMBASE databases retrieved in the field of History of Medicine by 105,286 contributed authors in WoS. We identified 157 countries that collaborated on scientific medical papers. By clustering 59,995 keywords, we were able to reveal the trend of History of Medicine research for the future. Our findings showed a positive association between traditional bibliometrics and social media metrics such as the Altmetric Attention Score in the History of Medicine literature (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Sharing research findings of articles in social scientific networks will increase the visibility of scientific works in History of Medicine research, which is one of the most important factors influencing the citation of articles. Additionally, our overview of the literature in the medical field allowed us to identify and examine gaps in the History of Medicine research.

 

 

Preprint articles are available on servers, such as arXiv and ChemRxiv, at no-cost to benefit the movement toward open access of research. However, the use of preprint research articles as a reference source in academia is not heavily documented. To examine if researchers are utilizing preprint articles, this paper examines citation trends in the dissertations of chemistry and physics PhD candidates who studied at four University Centers in the State University Of New York system (SUNY). Using citation analysis methodology, references cited in PhD dissertations published between 2018–2021 were analyzed. Key findings showed that PhD candidate authors cited preprint articles at a low rate, and relied on traditional resources for their dissertations, such as articles and books. Physics preprints were cited with more frequency than chemistry preprints. This data provides a benchmark for tracking the use of physics and chemistry preprints in academic research. The results of this study are also useful for examining library collections, particularly around core journal titles. Additionally, this paper raises questions about the information literacy skills of doctoral students. The doctoral students’ best practices of using preprints could be explored in future research.

 

 

Este artículo pretende realizar una panorámica histórica y legislativa de las tesis doctorales en España como elemento fundamental para entender el desarrollo de la educación universitaria y los cambios que ha ido viviendo. Para ello se analiza su evolución desde el contexto histórico y político educativo. Tras una introducción, el texto se divide en dos partes principales. La primera abarca desde los orígenes de las tesis doctorales y las primera legislaciones hasta la Guerra Civil. La segunda parte aborda los cambios en el doctorado y las tesis doctorales desde la legislación y las políticas educativa después de la Guerra Civil hasta la actualidad. Como conclusión, se puede ver cómo ser doctor o doctora ha ido modificando su sentido desde un título más elitista y vinculado a cuestiones de estatus y liturgia a una concepción moderna, académica y científica, con la tesis doctoral como referente, donde la formación investigadora y las aportaciones al incremento del campo de conocimiento disciplinar y a la sociedad han sido una constante, pudiendo constatarse además a través de este análisis los paralelismos entre la propia evolución de la institución universitaria y la de las tesis doctorales.

 

 

El presente estudio examina el uso de metodologías activas en las titulaciones universitarias. Se seleccionan y describen las investigaciones de los últimos veinte años a través de un análisis bibliométrico y temático de artículos indexados en Google Académico, Scopus y Web of Science. Los resultados muestran el aumento de las publicaciones en los últimos cinco años, teniendo a España, Brasil y Chile como los países que más publican sobre este tema. Se observa la presencia de una mayoría de artículos en inglés, realizados en coautoría de entre tres y cuatro personas, generalmente mujeres. Adicionalmente, prevalecen las investigaciones basadas en estudios de caso con muestras pequeñas, elegidas por conveniencia, que analizan las percepciones del alumnado y del profesorado participante en experiencias educativas específicas en un período de tiempo reducido. En conclusión, las investigaciones analizadas coinciden en los beneficios que aporta el uso de metodologías activas para el aprendizaje y bienestar del alumnado.
