论文层面科学评价实证研究--以PLoS ONE为例

Empirical Study of Scientific Evaluation on the Papers Level——Taking PLoS ONE as the Example

为解析论文科学评价结构,并阐述替代计量指标的可行性与可信性,本文选取PLoS ONE中物理学、化学、社会学文献1036篇,以Article level metrics为基础,采用相关分析、聚类分析以及多维定标方法,就论文的Article Usage、Mendeley、CiteUlike、Facebook等替代计量学指标与传统文献计量指标进行了对比与分析。

In order to deconstruct article-level evaluation and analyze its feasibility and credibility, the author selects a sample of 1036 papers on physics, chemistry, and sodology in PLoS ONE, and compares paper＇s altmetrics indicators, such as Article Usage, Mendeley, CiteUlike, Facebook with traditional bibliometric ones. For this purpose, correlation analysis, cluster analysis and multidimensional scaling are used.
