Abstract:

[Purposes] This paper aims to analyze the positive role of retrieval tools as journal evaluation tools and the resulting misunderstandings. [Methods] Starting from the citation index, the paper discussed why the retrieval tool was used for journal evaluation, explored the relationship between journal evaluation and academic evaluation, and probed into the purpose of evaluation, the difference between evaluation and comparison, and their respective advantages and disadvantages. The paper also explored the reason why quantitative indicators could not be regarded as objective and what is quality evaluation. In terms of the preferred standard for quality pursuit and the key to improving the innovation of academic journals, the paper put forward a personal opinion. [Findings] The evaluation indicators of academic journals has both favorable and unfavorable effects, and using the impact factors of published journals to evaluate the individual academic achievements of researchers is inappropriate. [Conclusions] This paper calls for downplaying the awareness of core journals, reducing their role as a baton in academic activities, and running academic journals according to the requirements and laws of their development.
