中文开放获取期刊论文的引用优势分析——以《图书情报工作》为实证

Analysis of citation advantage of Chinese open access journal papers:An empirical analysis on Library and Information Service

【目的】通过实证分析研究中文开放获取(Open Access,OA)期刊论文是否具有引用优势,为中文科技期刊OA转型提供实证注解和参考。【方法】以《图书情报工作》2013—2021年发表的3949篇论文为样本,通过进行t检验、多元线性回归分析、倾向得分匹配及其回归分析、异质性检验等方式验证OA是否具有引用优势。【结果】OA论文具有显著引用优势并且结论具有稳健性。此外,年度核心作者、第一作者单位级别对论文被引频次也具有显著正向影响。【结论】建议中文期刊挖潜提升、对标国际,积极推动OA转型;加大对中文期刊OA转型的资助力度,健全集中的OA平台,促进我国中文期刊OA转型发展。

[Purposes]This study employs empirical analysis to investigate whether Chinese open access(OA) journal papers confer a citation advantage,aiming to offer empirical annotations and references for the OA transformation of Chinese scientific journals.[Methods]We utilized a sample of 3949 papers published in Library and Information Service from 2013 to 2021 for t-tests,multiple linear regression analysis,propensity score matching and its regression analysis,and heterogeneity tests to verify whether OA enjoyed a citation advantage.[Findings]OA papers demonstrate a significant citation advantage,and the conclusions are robust.Furthermore,the annual core authors and the level of the first author's institution also exert a significant positive impact on the citation count of papers.[Conclusions]It is recommended that Chinese journals explore their potential for improvement,align with international standards,and actively promote the transformation to OA.Moreover,increasing funding for the OA transformation of Chinese journals,enhancing centralized OA platforms,and promoting the development of OA transformation of Chinese journals are advocated.
