论文部分内容阅读
编辑同志:我是一个从事化学研究的科技工作者,也从事过一些科技情报工作。最近看到贵刊上刊载过一些对美国化学文摘的千种表进行分析的文章。我认为美国化学文摘的千种表只不过是对各种期刊被摘录次数(频率)的一个统计表,它只反映某种期刊一年内被摘录的文章数量的多少,并不反映期刊的水平。有的期刊覆盖面广,出版频率高(月刊,甚至半月刊),全年发表文章多,被摘录次数也就多些。有的期刊涉及面窄,出版频率低(季刊,双月刊),文章少些,在千种表中位次就可能靠后些,甚至不能进入。例如,英国 Accountsof Chemical Research。是化学科研人员普遍认为是一本高水平的综述性刊物,由于它每期刊登的文章数量少,多年来都没有进入千种表,但这丝毫不影响人们对它水平的评价。因此,我认为不必在千种表上做文
Editor’s Comrade: I am a science and technology worker engaged in chemical research, but also engaged in some scientific and technological intelligence work. Recently I saw in your magazine some articles on the analysis of thousands of American Chemical Abstracts. In my opinion, the 1000 tables of American Chemical Abstracts are only a statistical table of the number of excerpts (frequencies) of various journals. It only reflects the number of articles excerpted in a certain period of a year and does not reflect the level of journals. Some journals cover a wide range of high frequency of publication (monthly or even semi-monthly), published more articles throughout the year, the number of excerpts will be more. Some journals are narrow-faced, their publication frequency is low (quarterly, bimonthly), and there are fewer articles that may rank later in thousands of categories or even fail to enter. For example, UK Accountsof Chemical Research. It is widely recognized by chemical researchers as a high-level review publication. Due to the small number of articles published in each issue, it has not entered thousands of tables for many years, but this does not affect people’s evaluation of its level. Therefore, I do not think it is necessary to write on a thousand kinds of watches
