“…There are some studies on citation patterns of Korean journals; several articles have conducted citation language analysis on Korean journals (Cho, 2010;Choi, 1996;Choi et al, 2011;Kim et al, 2011), while others include citation country analysis on Korean journals (Cho & Cho, 2005;Lancaster et al, 1990;Kim, 2002;Kim, 2003). However, all of the studies have conducted the citation patterns of Korean authors other than cited patterns of Korean journal articles.…”

Citing literature is a very important activity for scholars in writing articles. Many publishers and libraries build citation databases and provide citation reports on scholarly journals. Cited-by linking is a service representing what an article cites and how many times it cites a specific article within a journal database. Recently, information services based on DOIs (Digital Object Identifiers) have been increasing in number. CrossRef, a non-profit organization for the DOI registration agency, maintains the DOI system and provides the cited-by linking service. Recently, the number of Korean journals adopting DOI is also rapidly increasing. The Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information (KISTI) supports Korean learned societies in DOI related activities in collaboration with CrossRef. This study analyzes cited patterns of Korean DOI journal articles using CrossRef's cited-by linking data and a Korean journal citation database. This analysis has been performed in terms of publication country and the language of journals citing Korean journal articles. The results show that DOI, SCI(E) (Science Citation Index (Expanded)), and English journals are more likely to be cited internationally

“…Reference works that are included in articles act as information resources as well as tools for various analyses on articles or researchers as stated above. In other words, since some cited references have directly influenced the new research findings, they have a value as information resources (Cho 2005).…”
