Here, we present a simple method for generating the citation distributions that underlie JIFs. Application of this straightforward protocol reveals the full extent of the skew of distributions and variation in citations received by published papers that is characteristic of all scientific journals. Although there are differences among journals across the spectrum of JIFs, the citation distributions overlap extensively, demonstrating that the citation performance of individual papers cannot be inferred from the JIF. We propose that this methodology be adopted by all journals as a move to greater transparency, one that should help to refocus attention on individual pieces of work and counter the inappropriate usage of JIFs during the process of research assessment.Wed Sep 26 10:10:12 CEST 2018Learned Publishing2107-119Open access publications in sciences and social sciences: A comparative analysis312017access bibliometrie factor impact jif journal open publizieren qualität wissenschaftliches zeitschriften In this paper, we conduct a comparative analysis to examine the characteristics and evolutionary trends of open access (OA) publications in natural and social sciences. We use data recorded by Science Citation Index Expanded, Social Sciences Citation Index, and Journal Citation Reports during 2001–2015 as the main source. We then comparatively analyse the characteristics of natural and social sciences in terms of historical evolution, main contributors, and distribution of OA journals and publications across different languages, disciplines, and impact factor quartiles. Our results suggest that both natural and social sciences experienced dramatic growth of OA journals since 2009, but the share of social science OA journals within journal impact factor quartile 1 is much lower than that of natural sciences. While natural and social sciences share some similarities in OA publishing activities, such as main countries of contribution, they differ greatly in dimensions such as OA ratio across specific disciplines, countries, and publishing languages. We acknowledge that OA publishing offers a level playing field for traditionally disadvantaged languages, countries, and scientific disciplines, but meanwhile, the advancement of high-quality OA publishing needs more targeted and sophisticated approaches to tackle differences in natural and social sciences.Mon Jul 05 17:40:23 CEST 2021Die Wochenzeitung0519Wissenschaft: Eine Frage der Glaubwürdigkeit2021access mdpi oa open publizieren qualität schweiz verlag wissenschaftliches zeitschriften 13Ein Verlag mit Hauptsitz in Basel mischt die akademische Publizistik auf.
