Abstract
This study rigorously examines the evolution and future prospects of scientific journals in Peru, with a particular focus on those affiliated with state-sanctioned public universities. The research includes a comprehensive evaluation of the official online resources of each university, following the list sanctioned by the Superintendencia Nacional de Educación Superior Universitaria (SUNEDU). This research includes journals included in the Sistema Regional de Información en Líneo para Revistas Científicas de América Latina, el Caribe, España y Portugal (Latindex Catálogo 2.0), as well as those indexed in prominent databases such as SciELO, Web of Science (WOS), and Scopus. Using careful data analysis methods, including tabulation in Excel and Minitab 19, the study identified 205 scientific journals. Of these, 51 are indexed in at least one of the aforementioned databases, while 154 remain unindexed, highlighting a significant challenge for editorial teams. In particular, only four journals are indexed in Scopus, mainly from the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos and the Universidad Nacional de Trujillo. The research concludes that the development of these journals is significantly correlated with their Google Scholar h-index. The results argue for greater support for public universities to promote the indexing of their scholarly journals, thereby increasing the visibility and impact of their research on regional, national, and international platforms. Future strategies should include incentive policies to encourage scholarly contributions to locally based journals.
本研究严格考察了秘鲁科学期刊的发展和未来前景,尤其关注那些隶属于国家认可的公立大学的期刊。研究内容包括按照国家高等院校教育局(SUNEDU)批准的清单,对每所大学的官方在线资源进行全面评估。这项研究包括 Sistema Regional de Información en Líneo para Revistas Científicas de América Latina, el Caribe, España y Portugal (Latindex Catálogo 2.0) 中收录的期刊,以及 SciELO、Web of Science (WOS) 和 Scopus 等著名数据库收录的期刊。通过仔细的数据分析方法,包括使用 Excel 和 Minitab 19 制表,研究确定了 205 种科学期刊。其中,51 种期刊至少被上述一个数据库收录,而 154 种期刊仍未被收录,这凸显了编辑团队面临的巨大挑战。特别是,只有四种期刊被 Scopus 索引,主要来自圣马科斯国立大学和特鲁希略国立大学。研究得出结论,这些期刊的发展与其谷歌学术 h 指数密切相关。研究结果表明,应加大对公立大学的支持力度,促进其学术期刊的索引编制,从而提高其研究在地区、国家和国际平台上的知名度和影响力。未来的战略应包括激励政策,鼓励学术界向本地期刊投稿。
