However, it suffers from several limitations, such as susceptibility to authors’ manipulation, a narrow focus on the local citation network, and unreasonable convergence characteristics. To address these shortcomings, we propose a novel overshadowing disruption index (∆DI), based on the DI, that captures the disruptive quality of a focal paper by examining its overshadowing impact on its successors. Using 359 highly cited, 443 moderately cited, and 40 Nobel Prize-winning physics papers as research objects, we analyze the evolutionary trajectories of ∆DI and demonstrate its rationality via the statistical methods and GPT-4. Specifically, ∆DI presents a decay trend converging to zero, indicating that the disruptive impact of a paper declines over time. By analyzing papers’ research content via GPT-4, we further explain the decay trend from the perspective of semantic analysis. Additionally, we comprehensively examine ∆DI’s statistics and unveil its correlation with common DI-based metrics. Finally, we systematically verify the effectiveness of ∆DI by scrutinizing the relationship between ∆DI and future scientific impact. Our results show that ∆DI exhibits better predictive power than DI and DI<sub>5</sub>, and the combination of ΔDI and DI performs the best in predicting scientific impact.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48662,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Informetrics","volume":"19 3","pages":"Article 101706"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144588766","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study adopts the concept of ‘critical growth pathway’ to conduct a comparative analysis of academicians’ educational trajectories in China and Japan from the perspectives of educational continuity, educational institution diversity, and study abroad experience. Chinese academicians typically follow one of three education trajectories: (1) bachelor’s, (2) bachelor’s-master’s-doctorate, or (3) bachelor’s-work-master’s-work-doctorate, while Japanese academicians commonly follow: (1) bachelor’s-direct doctorate, (2) bachelor’s-master’s-doctorate, and (3) bachelor’s-work-doctorate. China tends to emphasise bachelor’s-master’s continuity and master’s-doctorate continuity, whereas Japan shows a stronger preference for direct doctoral continuity. Chinese academicians demonstrate greater diversity in their educational institutions compared to their Japanese counterparts. Most Chinese and Japanese academicians have no overseas study experience, although such experience is more common in Japan than China. Consistent and continuous scientific research training is a critical pathway for cultivating elite scientists, while maintaining coherence across educational stages supports their development. The role of overseas education in cultivating high-level domestic talent is important to reassess, attention should be placed on strengthening local talent development by enhancing mentorship, improving the effectiveness of domestic training systems, and addressing country-specific challenges, particularly as national research and education systems reach more advanced stages.

Our analysis demonstrates that these metrics reveal patterns distinct from paper-level measures, with no significant correlation to averaged paper delayed recognition scores. Fixed-effect regression analyses indicate that female scientists and those pursuing novel or disruptive research experience greater delays in recognition. Additionally, through Coarsened Exact Matching (CEM) analysis, we find that scientists in smaller groups exhibit higher survival rates in academia but also face more significant delayed recognition.
