撤稿对通讯作者学术生涯的影响

The Impact of Retraction on the Academic Career of the Corresponding Author

[目的/意义]过去10年中,科学论文的撤稿率急速上升,引起众多学者关注,但大多研究集中于撤稿原因的分析,对撤稿影响通讯作者学术生涯的研究较少。[方法/过程]该研究利用Web of Science、PubMed数据库检索得到2010-2018年共2784篇撤回出版物及相应撤回通知。[结果/结论]2010年以来,撤稿率不断上升,其中因抄袭撤稿的占比最大(741篇)。撤回出版物来源国家排名靠前的有中国、美国、伊朗等,期刊为Tumor Biology、Plos One等。通讯作者第一次撤稿5年前和5年后发文量斜率有显著差异(Z=-3.327,P<0.001),作者IRP、h指数增长率、职位同样受到撤稿的影响。基于该文的研究结果,今后在科学研究中需弥补学术监督体系和出版流程的漏洞,加强诚信教育,提升自主创新能力。

[Purpose/Significance]In the past decade,the retraction rate of scientific papers has risen sharply,which has attracted the attention of many researchers.However,most of the researches focused on the analysis of the reasons for retraction,and there were few studies on the impact of retraction on the author's academic career.[Method/Process]This study retrieved 2784 pieces of publications and retraction notices from 2010 to 2018 from the Web of Science database and PubMed database.[Result/Conclusion]The number of retractions and retraction rates have increased since 2010 with plagiarism(741)being the reason for the largest number of publications.The countries with the highest source of withdrawal of publications are China,the United States,Iran,etc.The journals are Tumor Biology and Plos One.The study observes the impact of retraction on the author's academic career from the author's volume,h index,and position change.There was a significant differences in the volume of publications 5 years ago and 5 years later(Z=-3.327,P<0.001)for the corresponding author.The author's IRP,h index growth rate,and position were also affected by the withdrawal.It is suggested that in the scientific research,it is necessary to make up for the loopholes in the academic supervision system and the publishing process,strengthen the integrity education,and enhance the ability of independent innovation.
