期刊自引与影响因子关系的分区比较与历时分析——以JCR收录的管理学期刊为例

doi:10.11946/cjstp.202003180239

摘要/Abstract

摘要：

【目的】考察期刊自引程度以及期刊自引对期刊影响因子的影响程度,并揭示其动态变化规律。【方法】以2009—2018年JCR收录的管理学期刊为例,对期刊自引率(自引证率和自被引率)与影响因子(剔除自引前、后)共计4种指标及其关系进行分区比较和历时分析。【结果】自引证率保持基本稳定而自被引率先增后降,自引对影响因子确有影响但程度有限,自引率与影响因子不具有普遍的相关关系,上述指标的分布和变化规律在不同分区存在显著差异。【结论】管理学期刊的自引程度没有加剧,自引对影响因子的影响程度也没有增强,应对期刊自引持乐观和谨慎的态度。

关键词: 期刊自引, 影响因子, 自引证率, 自被引率, 历时变化

Abstract:

[Purposes] This paper aims to investigate the degree of journal self-citation (JSC) and its influence on impact factor (IF), so as to track their dynamic changes. [Methods] Taking the journals in the category of management indexed by JCR as samples, this study investigated the annual values of four indicators, including self-citing rate (SRR), self-cited rate (SCR), IF (with JSCs), and IF₀ (without JSCs), and detected their relationships by quartile ranking comparison and diachronic analysis. [Findings] Across the last decade, SRR remained stable, while SCR showed an upward trend before 2012 but a downward trend after 2012. JSCs do have an influence on IF, but to a limited extent. There is no universal correlation between JSC rate and IF in every quartile. Moreover, the distribution and change rules of the above indicators are significantly different in different quartiles. [Conclusions] It reveals a favorable publishing environment in management journals. Both the degree of JSC and its influence on IF have not intensified. We should treat JSC optimistically and cautiously.

Key words: Journal self-citation, Impact factor, Self-citing rate, Self-cited rate, Diachronic change
