摘要
门德利读者数和被引数是研究评价的指标。在许多情况下,它们之间存在显著的相关性。然而,在高引用的文章中,关于这两个变量之间的相关性的证据很少。本研究旨在探讨门德利读者数量与高被引医学文章被引次数之间的关系。研究人群包括2016年科学网络(Web of Science, WoS)索引中各个医学领域的所有高被引文章。从WoS中提取引文数量,使用webometric analyst提取Mendeley读者数量。调查结果显示,门德利读者最多的是与普通医学和内科相关的领域,平均为570.43,最低的是耳鼻喉科,平均为86.2。平均引用最高的是全科和内科(338.18),最低的是护理(40.84)。Pearson相关系数显示,Mendeley读者数量与所有医学文章被引用次数呈正相关且显著(p值<0.001,r = 0.644)。在医学的各个领域中,除骨科外,两个变量之间存在显著的正相关关系。有证据表明,门德利数据可以决定文章的有效性。似乎更多的研究人员使用Mendeley将增加文章的可见度和读者,从而导致更多的引用。
Mendeley Readers of Highly-Cited Articles in Medical Sciences: Is It Correlated With Citations?
Abstract The number of Mendeley readers and the number of citations are indicators of a research evaluation. In many cases, they have a significant correlation with each other. However, there is a minimal amount of evidence regarding the correlation between these two variables in highly-cited articles. The present study aimed to investigate the correlation between the number of Mendeley readers and the number of citations in highly-cited medical articles. The research population includes all highly-cited articles in various fields of medicine indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) in 2016. The number of citations was extracted from the WoS, and the number of Mendeley readers was extracted using the webometric analyst. Findings revealed that the most Mendeley readers are related to the field of general and internal medicine with an average of 570.43, and the lowest is dedicated to otorhinolaryngology with an average of 86.2. Also, the highest average citation belongs to general and internal medicine (338.18) and the lowest to nursing (40.84). Pearson correlation coefficient showed that the relationship between the number of Mendeley readers and the number of citations received by all medical articles is positive and significant (p-value <0.001, r = 0.644). In various fields of medicine, except orthopedics, there is a positive and significant relationship between two variables. Evidence suggests that Mendeley data can determine the effectiveness of articles. It seems that more researchers’ use of Mendeley will increase the visibility and readers of the articles and, as a result, will lead to more citations.
