部分地球物理学类期刊论文被引频次的影响因素分析

Analysis of the Factors Influencing the Citation Frequency of Geophysics Journal Papers

为了提高期刊登载论文的质量,研究地球物理学类期刊论文被引频次的影响因素,选取《地球物理学报》《地震地质》《中国地震》《地震地磁观测与研究》4种期刊为研究对象,统计其2017—2019年登载论文被引用频次,采用线性回归分析方法分析了论文形式、内容与被引频次的关系,结果发现:①期刊论文被引频次与论文长度、参考文献数量、第一作者发文量或关键词数量的相关性均较低;②以单个地震为研究对象的论文的被引用表现要好于各期刊的整体被引频次;③研究新地震(论文发表时间-发震时间≤4年)的论文较研究历史地震(论文发表时间-发震时间>4年)的在被引用频次方面表现更好。鉴于此,应重点关注稿件内容,从内容上提升论文质量,以期提升期刊影响力。

In order to improve the quality of papers published in journals and study the factors affecting the citation frequency of journal papers,four journals in the field of geophysics-Chinese Journal of Geophysics,Seismology and Geology,Earthquake Research in China,Seismological and Geomagnetic Observation and Research were selected to count the citation frequency of papers published from 2017 to 2019.The research was carried out in terms of the form and content.We used linear fitting to analyze the correlation in form,and conducted statistics for comparative analysis in content.We found that in terms of form,the citation frequency of journal papers has a low correlation with the length of papers,the number of references,the number of papers published by the first author or the number of keywords.In terms of the content,the cited performance of articles on a single earthquake as the research object is better than the overall performance.New earthquake articles are better in terms of cited frequency,whereas historical earthquake articles are worse in terms of cited frequency.In view of this,in order to enhance the influence of the journal,we should focus on the content of the manuscript and improve the quality of the paper from the content.
