Abstract

This study pointed the factors affecting the number of articles and citations in material science which is the most active publishing disciplinary in South Korea. This was conducted by gathering the information on SCIE which had been published by 449 Korean professors in material science from 2006 to 2010. One of the results was that the professors who had published more papers received more citations than those who did not, reconfirming former studies abroad. It was observed that the factors majors impacting on the number of papers may be their academic positions, educational backgrounds (particularly undergraduates), and places of work. The number of citations was affected by the authors' undergraduate and their locations of the work. This study suggested a need for more supports on basic researches by universities and funding bodies and an amendment of performance measures to include the number of citations.

이 연구는 한국에서 SCIE 논문을 가장 활발하게 발표하고 있는 분야인 재료공학과 대학교수 449명이 2006년부터 2010년까지 발표한 SCIE 논문수와 피인용 횟수를 측정하고 이에 영향을 미치는 요인을 구체적으로 규명하고자 하였다. 연구 결과 논문수가 많은 교수가 피인용 횟수도 높은 것으로 나타나 외국의 선행연구 결과와 유사하였고, 논문수에 영향을 주는 요인은 교수의 직급, 출신학부, 재직 대학의 소재지일 수 있다는 것을 확인하였다. 피인용에 영향을 주는 요인으로 인적 특성 가운데 출신학부가 있었고, 환경적 특성으로 재직 대학의 소재지가 서울인지 지방인지에 따라 피인용 횟수에 뚜렷한 차이가 있음을 확인하였다. 장기적으로 국내 SCIE 논문의 피인용을 증진하기 위해서는 피인용을 촉발할 수 있는 기초 연구에 보다 많은 지원을 해야 하고, 대학과 연구비 지원기관의 연구성과 평가에 피인용 횟수도 포함시키는 등 평가방식도 보완할 필요성이 제기되었다.
