圖書資訊學領域期刊之出版時滯研究

The Study of Publication Lag in Library and Information Science Journals

指導教授 : 林雯瑤

摘要


本研究從時間管理的角度探討學術期刊出版速度,研究目的為瞭解圖書資訊學領域期刊的出版時滯,以收錄於2013年版 Journal Citation Reports (JCR) 中主題分類為資訊科學與圖書館學 (IS&LS) 領域的期刊為研究對象,利用書目計量學方法分析其於2008年、2011年與2012年所出版的期刊論文之出版時滯的概況與變化、特性、開放取用與電子預印本機制、以及與影響係數、5年影響係數、即時指數及被引用半衰期等期刊評鑑指標之間的關係。 本研究結果顯示:出版時滯概況方面,由於在本研究範圍內的期刊 出版時滯數據散布範圍廣,故討論出版時滯不能僅論述其平均值,亦須討論其他數值,本研究範圍內期刊在2008年、2011年與2012年三個年度平均出版時滯分別為428.13天、395.18天、412.56天,中位數分別為398天、331天、362天,25百分位數分別為279.75天、235.75天、264.25天,75百分位數分別為524天、510天、504.5天,眾數分別為353天、258天、456天,表示該領域出版時滯約集中於250天至450天之間。而出版時滯特性部分,不同出刊頻率、出版者、期刊主題、文獻類型、文章篇幅、開放取用期刊與出版時滯皆有顯著相關。另外,本研究結果顯示,提供電子預印本機制期刊在2011年、2012年的出版時滯比2008年大幅縮短,同一段時間也比一般期刊的出版時滯更短,顯示其傳播速度更快,亦表示電子預印機制確實對縮短出版時滯有所助益。分析本研究範圍內期刊出版時滯與期刊評鑑指出版時滯與影響係數、即時指數均無達到統計水準上的顯著關係,但與5年影響係數、被引用半衰期具有相關性。 根據研究結果所提出的建議包括:圖書資訊學領域中各期刊應提供計算出版時滯之基礎日期、並力求縮短出版時滯以及提供電子預印本機制。

並列摘要


This study was mainly to investigate the publication speed of scholarly journals. This study was conducted primarily to investigate the effect of publication lag, defined as the time between submission and publication, on Library and Information Science journals. This study focused on journals in the categories of Information Science & Library Science (IS&LS) in the 2013 edition of Journal Citation Reports, and those published in 2008, 2011 and 2012. The study using bibliometric methods to analyzed the publication lag of current condition, characteristics of publication frequency, publishers, subject categories, article types, and article lengths, Open Access (OA) and in-press , and journal indicators of Impact Factor (IF), 5-year Impact Factor (5Y-IF), Immediacy Index (II), and Cited Half-Life. The results of this study were as follows: (1) In the scope of this study, the condition of publication lag has distributed widely, therefore the average value was not discussed only. In the publication years of 2008, 2011, and 2012, the average publication lag was 428.13, 395.18, and 412.56 days; the median was 398, 331, and 362 days; the 25th percentile was 279.75, 235.75, and 264.25 days; the 75th percentile was 524, 510, and 504.5 days; and the mode was 353, 258, and 456 days, respectively. The publication lag range was between 250 and 450 days. (2) Significant differences were observed in publication lag and publication frequency, publishers, subject categories, article types, article lengths. (3) A significant difference was observed in publication lag and OA journals. However, the appearance of electronic in-press publication did substantially shorter the publication lag in 2011 and 2012 than in 2008, likewise, in-press publication exhibited a shorter publication lag than traditional publication. (4) Significant correlations were observed in publication lag and 5Y-IF, Cited Half-Life, but not for the IF and II. Suggestions based on the results are as follows: (1) Journal publishers should provide dates about counting publication lag, especially submission and acceptance dates. (2) Journal publishers should make efforts to shorten publication lag. (3) Journal publishers should offer in-press publication.
