摘要：

【目的】 分析入选“中国科技期刊卓越行动计划”领军期刊项目的期刊在项目实施前后的发文质量变化,同时与同领域国际知名期刊进行比较,以期从稿源角度为我国建设世界一流期刊提供借鉴和方向。【方法】 通过查询Web of Science数据库,分析22种期刊在项目实施前(2018—2019年)和项目实施后(2020—2021年)2个时间段内的发文规模、发文类型、国际论文比、稿源国数量、论文影响力等指标,并与同领域国际知名期刊进行横向比较。【结果】 在“中国科技期刊卓越行动计划”的助力下,我国领军期刊在发文规模、论文影响力方面稳步提升,国际论文比相较于“中国科技期刊卓越行动计划”实施前有所下降。半数期刊栏目类型比较单一,在内容延伸方面有进步空间。和同领域国际知名期刊相比,我国期刊在发文的质和量方面仍存在差距。【结论】 我国科技期刊的稿源建设既需要科技评价体系、期刊扶持政策的支持,也需要期刊自身的努力。

Abstract:

[Purposes] This paper aims to analyze changes in article quality of the leading journals of Excellence Action Plan for China STM Journals (referred to as "plan" hereafter) after implementation of the plan in comparison with international well-known journals, in order to provide references and directions for construction of world-class journals from the perspective of content construction. [Methods] Based on the Web of Science database, we analyzed the publishing scale, article type, proportion of international papers, number of countries of paper source, and academic impact of papers before (2018—2019) and after (2020—2021) implementation of the plan, and compared them with the highly recognized international journals in the same research field. [Findings] With implementation of the plan, the leading journals of the plan in China show steady improvement in publishing scale and academic impact as well as slight decrease of proportion of international papers, while half of the journals have relatively single columns, suggesting that there is room for improvement in content extension. There is still a gap between the journals in China and the international journals in both quality and quantity of publications. [Conclusions] The content construction of journals in China requires supports from evaluation system, supporting policy, and the journals' own efforts.
