摘要
在很短的时间内,新冠肺炎相关研究领域出现了大量论文和引用。发表新冠肺炎相关文章的期刊影响因子(IF)有所增加,反映了对新冠肺炎的关注。通过在Web of Science上发表与新冠病毒相关的论文,我们发现与新冠病毒相关的论文增加了期刊的影响因子,但影响因子高的期刊受益更多。高被引论文分布在高影响因子期刊。这增加了研究类别中频的不平等。综上所述,我们的研究结果表明,IF容易受到外部事件的影响,因此它支持在评估中警告使用定量指标。
Impact Factor polarization during the COVID-19 pandemic
The COVID-19-related research field has emerged with a number of papers and citations in a very short time period. Journals published COVID-19-related works have increased their impact factor (IF), which reflects the attention on COVID-19. With publications of COVID-19-related works in Web of Science, we found that COVID-19-related papers increased IF of journals but more benefits were given to the high IF journals. Highly cited COVID-19-related papers were distributed in high IF journals. This increases the inequality of IF in research category. In conclusion, our findings imply that IF is vulnerable to external events, therefore it supports to warn the use of quantitative indicators in assessment.
