Abstract:

[Purposes] To strengthen the development of first-class journals and promote the optimization of research evaluation systems in universities and research institutions, this study constructs a novel journal evaluation metric from the perspective of journal editorial board members, aiming to provide new insights and methods for measuring the influence of academic journals. [Methods] Taking the field of operations research and management science as an example, this study integrates multi-dimensional data such as editorial board levels, the size of editorial boards at different levels, and editorial board members' academic achievements. The editorial scholarly index (ESI) is constructed, with academic achievements of editorial board members quantified through indicators such as the number of articles, total citation count, citations per paper, citations of representative works, h-index, and w-index. [Findings] Verification using the UTD 24 journal list shows that the editorial scholarly index based on citations per article (ESI) performs the best, while the index based on article quantity shows relatively weaker results. [Conclusions] The ESI serves as an effective supplementary metric for measuring the impact of academic journals, offering new perspectives and tools for journal evaluation.

摘要：

【目的】为加强一流期刊建设,促进高校和科研机构优化科研评价体系,从期刊编委视角构建全新期刊评价指标,以期为学术期刊影响力测度提供新的思路与方法。【方法】以运筹学与管理科学领域为例,通过整合编委等级、不同等级编委规模、编委学术成就等多维数据,构建编委学术指数(editorial scholarly index,ESI)。其中,编委学术成就通过编委文章数量、总被引次数、篇均被引次数、代表作被引次数、h指数和w指数等指标来量化。【结果】以UTD 24期刊为基准进行验证,结果显示,基于篇均被引次数的编委学术指数评价效果最优,而基于文章数量的编委学术指数表现相对欠佳。【结论】编委学术指数是学术期刊影响力测度的有效补充指标,为期刊评价提供新的研究视角和方法工具。
