论文摘要

这项研究旨在提供有关定义的Q概念的信息,该Q概念定义为基于给定的现场类别的四分位数的影响因素分为四分位数,以便可以消除直接使用期刊影响因素引起的缺点。虽然“科学(WOS)数据库索引期刊(如SCI,SSCI和A&HCI)发表的“原始文章”的数量是土耳其研究评估的重要指标,但期刊影响因素也不是这些论文的Q概念。本研究分析了使用Q概念在2014 - 2018年期间在WOS数据库中索引的Amasya大学研究人员的科学生产。 Q类期刊的出版物份额以及Amasya University工程收到的平均引用与土耳其和世界其他不同国家的平均状况进行了比较。结果表明,Amasya大学研究人员发表的文章主要发表在低影响因素期刊(第4季度期刊)(36.49%)中,实际上,仅在高影响力期刊上发表了一小部分论文(在Q1期刊中为14.32%)。 Amasya大学研究人员在低影响期刊上发表的论文份额高于土耳其平均水平,并且高于科学领先国家。在第一季度期刊上发表的论文收到的平均引用是第四季度期刊上发表的论文(8.92 vs. 1.56)的六倍,因此,尽管在这些期刊上发表了14.32%的论文,但在Q1期刊上发表的论文收到了30.02%的引用。在WOS中从未引用的论文份额为27.48%,从第1季度的9.68%增加到第四季度的近一半(48.10%)。该研究以一些有关如何以及在何处使用Q概念的建议结束。

This study aims to provide information about the Q Concept defined as the division of journal impact factors into quartiles based on given field categories so that the disadvantages resulting from the direct use of journal impact factors can be eliminated. While the number of "Original articles published in the Web of Science (WoS) database-indexed journals like SCI, SSCI and A&HCI" is an important indicator for research assessment in Turkey, neither the journal impact factors nor the Q Concept of these papers have been taken into account. Present study analyzes the scientific production of the Amasya University researchers in journals indexed in WoS database in the period 2014-2018 using the Q concept. The share of publications by Q category journals as well as the average citations received by the works from Amasya University were compared to the average situation in Turkey and other different countries in the world. Results indicate that the articles published by Amasya University researchers were mostly published in low impact factor journals (Q4 journals) (36.49%), in fact, only a small share of papers were published in high impact journals (14.32% in Q1 journals). The share of papers published in low impact journals by researchers from Amasya University is higher than the Turkish average and much higher than the scientific leading countries. The average citations received by papers published in Q1 journals was around six times higher than papers published in Q4 journals (8.92 vs. 1.56), thus papers published in Q1 journals received 30.02% citations despite only 14.32% of the papers was published in these journals. The share of papers published which were never cited in WoS was 27.48%, increasing from 9.68% in Q1 to almost half (48.10%) in Q4. The study concludes with some suggestions on how and where the Q Concept can be used.
