Abstract:

[Purposes] This paper aims to explore the differences in download volume and cited frequencies between cover papers and non-cover papers in core journals of journalism and communication studies, and to provide references for improving the communication and influence of academic journals in the field of journalism and communication. [Methods] An empirical study was conducted on the download volume and cited frequencies of 450 cover papers and 821 non-cover papers published in four core journals of journalism and communication studies, namely Journalism & Communication, Chinese Journal of Journalism & Communication, Modern Communication (Journal of Communication University of China), and Journalism Research in 2018 and 2019. [Findings] The performance of cover papers in the four journals is generally significantly better than that of non-cover papers in terms of download volume, total cites, cited frequencies in core journals, and cited frequencies in core journals of non-journalism and communication studies. There is a positive correlation between download volume and all citation indicators. [Conclusions] Cover papers can help enhance the influence of academic journals. Journalism and communication journals should pay attention to selecting cover papers, improve cover design integration, expand the channels of disseminating cover papers, increase efforts in social media promotion, and explore the integration of multimedia publishing to enhance the academic influence of cover papers and journals.
