地学类非SCI收录中文期刊质量提升途径——基于地学科技工作者对成果发表需求的现状调研

Ways to improve the quality of non-SCI Chinese geological journals:Current status of the demand of geoscientists for publishing

【目的】在优秀稿源大量外流的情况下,深入了解地学科技工作者投稿行为的倾向性,探索地学类非SCI收录中文期刊争取优秀稿件、提高期刊学术质量的途径。【方法】采用问卷调查方式了解地学科技工作者的投稿习惯,分析不同作者群体的需求,结合《矿物岩石地球化学通报》的办刊实践进行讨论,提出获取高质量论文的方法。【结果】作者投稿时普遍注重期刊的品牌、数据库收录状况、期刊影响因子,以及稿件评审、出版周期等因素。不同作者群体发表文章的目的明显不同,因此在选择发文期刊上有明显的倾向性。科技工作者普遍期待期刊的数字化,尤以微信等移动传播方式最为广泛接受。【结论】地学类非SCI收录的中文期刊特别需要加强约稿、组稿的力度,选择合适的组稿负责人是关键;学术共同体的资源和平台优势有助于期刊获得优质稿源。提高数字化程度、缩短出版周期和提高审稿质量,有利于期刊获得优质稿源。
