一个学术期刊低质量稿件控制的新指标——低分位影响因子

A New Index Based on Quality Control of Papers from Friends or Relatives in Academic Journals——Lower Quantile Impact Factor

[目的/意义]关系稿是学术期刊编辑出版中的一种现象,对低质量关系稿要严加控制。[方法/过程]在分析关系稿特征的基础上,提出一个新的文献计量指标——低分位影响因子,并以经济学CSSCI期刊为例进行了实证研究。[结果/结论]关系稿质量有高有低,低质量关系稿比较隐蔽;高影响力期刊低质量关系稿问题基本不存在;期刊低质量关系稿问题一定程度存在;低分位影响因子指标可以用来抑制学术期刊刊发关系稿;对于单篇低质量关系稿论文仍然缺乏有效的技术手段。

[Purpose/Significance]Papers from friends or relatives is a phenomenon in the editing and publishing of academic journals,and low quality papers from friends or relatives should be strictly controlled.[Method/Process]Based on the analysis of the characteristics of the papers from friends or relatives,this paper proposes a new bibliographic index—lower quantile impact factor,and conducts empirical research using the economics CSSCI journal as an example.[Result/Conclusion]Research indicates:the quality of papers from friends or relatives is high or low,and low-quality papers from friends or relatives are relatively hidden;there is no problem of low quality papers from friends or relatives in high influential journals;the problems of low quality related articles exist to a certain extent;the index of lower quantile impact factor can be used to inhibit the publication of papers from friends or relatives in academic journals;there is still a lack of effective technical means for a single low-quality papers from friends or relatives.
