Abstract:

[Purposes] Based on the Transparency and Openness Promotion Factor (TOP factor,proposed by Center for Open Science in February 2020), an empirical analysis of transparency and openness of library and information science journals (LIS journals) is conducted to provide references for the open science practices of scientific journals. [Methods] LIS journals indexed by Journal Citation Reports (2018) and CSSCI (2019-2020) were selected as the samples. Each journal was evaluated and scored according to the standards of TOP factor. We compared the differences of TOP factor scores of LIS journals indexed by JCR and CSSCI. Moreover, Spearman correlation analysis was conducted to examine the relations among the TOP factors, journal impact factors, and total cites. [Findings] The TOP factor scores of LIS journals indexed by JCR and CSSCI are low. However, comparing to LIS journals indexed by CSSCI, the LIS journals indexed by JCR have higher TOP factor scores. The four dimensions (including data citation, data transparency, analytical code transparency, and materials transparency) of TOP factor and the total score of TOP factor have significant and positive correlations with journal impact factors and total cites. [Conclusions] Scientific journals can make policies for promoting transparency and openness according to the four dimensions of TOP factor.

摘要:

【目的】 引入开放科学中心2020年2月提出的Transparency and Openness Promotion Factor (TOP因子),对图书馆与信息科学期刊(即LIS期刊)的透明度和开放性进行分析,为科技期刊进行开放科学实践提供参考。【方法】 以2018年度JCR和2019—2020年度CSSCI收录的LIS期刊为研究对象,按照TOP因子评估各期刊并赋分。对比JCR和CSSCI收录的LIS期刊的TOP因子得分,并通过Spearman相关检验分析TOP因子与期刊影响因子、总被引频次间的关系。【结果】 国内外LIS期刊的TOP因子得分均较低,但JCR收录的LIS期刊的TOP因子得分比CSSCI收录的期刊高。TOP因子的4个维度(数据引用、数据透明度、分析代码透明度、材料透明度)及TOP因子总分均与期刊影响因子、总被引频次呈显著的正相关关系。【结论】 科技期刊可以遵循TOP因子的4个维度来制定提升研究透明度和开放性的政策。
