Ranking Journals
分析了四种经济学期刊排名(Keele、澳大利亚、ABS),发现排名受文献计量指标和期刊历史影响,经济学家偏向理论期刊,ABS则相反,并基于回归预测了期刊类别。
We analyse the Keele list of economics journals, two lists produced in Australia and the Association of Business School (ABS) list. Econometric analysis suggests that all the rankings respond to combinations of bibliometrics, such as ISI's Article Influence and reward older journals. Lists produced by economists tend to reward theoretical journals and a focus on economics, whilst the ABS ranking tends to penalise an economics focus. On the basis of the regressions, we produce predicted rankings, distinguishing between journals which can be assigned to a specific category, for example 4*, and others which could lie in one of two categories.
