Coherent measures of the impact of co-authors in peer review journals and in proceedings publications

Abstract

This paper focuses on the coauthor effect in different types of publications, usually not equally respected in measuring research impact. A priori unexpected relationships are found between the total coauthor core value, ma, of a leading investigator (LI), and the related values for their publications in either peer review journals (j) or in proceedings (p). A surprisingly linear relationship is found: m arXiv:1506.05375v1 [physics.soc-ph] 17 Jun 2015 the findings suggest an immediate test of coherence of scientific authorship in scientific policy processes.

Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis of Editor Behavior through Potentially Coercive Citations

“…There is, of course, nothing wrong in citing an editor (of a special issue or proceedings of a conference) for his/her particular achievement, in particular in papers published through such means. In fact, it has been shown that there is some fair balance between co-authorship and scientific recognition indices for classical peer review papers and "special issues" (in a broad sense, i.e., including proceedings outside of journals) [29][30][31]. Thus, it is good for the scientific peer review process that new editors appear on editorial boards, especially when an individual has demonstrated editorial skill.…”

Rank–size distributions for banks: A cross-country analysis

“…The relevance of the rank-size theory for applications mirrors in the popularity of such a framework in different fields, ranging from metrics of science and bibliometrics (see, e.g., Ausloos, 2013Ausloos, , 2015Chatterjee et al, 2016;Mansilla et al, 2007) to seismology (see, e.g., Ficcadenti and Cerqueti, 2017), text analysis and linguistics (see, e.g., Ficcadenti et al, 2019Ficcadenti et al, , 2020Montemurro, 2001) and, of course, economics (see, e.g., Brakman et al, 1999;Cerqueti and Ausloos, 2015;Córdoba, 2008;Dimitrova and Ausloos, 2015;Giesen and Südekum, 2011).…”

Research Performance Predictors in Romanian Universities: The Case of the Bucharest University of Economic Studies

“…In this respect, in addition to teaching and education, scientific research and performance is one of the main concerns of an elite university. Universities compete on the basis of their scientific production against each other to attract competitive research funding and student finance from the Government to enable them to support progress and competitiveness (Altbach 2009, Andrei et al 2016, Ausloos 2015, Bibu et al 2016, Florescu 2012, Popa et al 2019.…”
