The study was undertaken: (a) to categorize the contents of educational computing articles using a taxonomy developed by Knezek, Rachlin, and Scannell (1988), (b) to examine the trends in educational computing subject matter addressed in community/junior college journals between 1977 and 1991, and (c) to identify and analyze specific characteristics of contributing authors and their employing institutions which might explain writing and publication biases.

Esta pesquisa e um estudo exploratorio e descritivo que analisa periodicos científicos brasileiros da area de Ciencias Sociais e de Humanidades indexados na base SciELO. A metodologia adotada consistiu na aplicacao parcial do modelo de avaliacao de periódicos desenvolvido por Bomfa (2003). A analise, realizada com os 73 titulos, foi ancorada, principalmente, em criterios de qualidade extrinsecos dos periodicos. No entanto, tambem foi realizada caracterizacao dos periodicos com base em indicadores qualitativos, tais como idioma de publicacao, indexacao em bases de dados e classificacao Qualis; bem como, por indicadores quantitativos relacionados aos periodicos, como: fator de impacto, vida media, citacoes concedidas, citacoes recebidas, numero de fasciculos, numero de artigos e numero de acessos aos periodicos. Os resultados mostram que com relacao as caracteristicas extrinsecas, esses periodicos tem evoluido significativamente e ja nao estao mais tao distantes, em termos de aspectos formais, dos periodicos de outras areas com maior tradicao de publicacao em periodicos cientificos. / This research is an exploratory and descriptive study that analyzes Brazilian scientific journals in the social sciences and humanities, indexed by SciELO database. The methodology adopted consisted of the partial implementation of the assessment model developed by Bomfa (2003). The 73 journals were analyzed, mainly in their aspects of quality extrinsic criteria. However, the study was also conducted to analyze qualitative aspects, such as publication language, indexing in databases and Qualis classification, as well as, quantitative indicators related to journals impact factor, Half-life, granted citations, received citations, issues number, articles number and number of articles journals requests. The results show that considering extrinsic aspects, these journals has improved significantly and in terms of formal aspects, are no longer so far apart from journals which have strong tradition of communicating scientific results in scholarly journals.

Conhecer as especificidades da comunicação científica em biodiversidade, por meio da avaliação dos periódicos que veiculam resultados de pesquisa na área. O estudo partiu dos periódicos científicos, nacionais e estrangeiros, classificados pelo Programa Qualis da Área de Biodiversidade, referente ao ano 2012, pertencentes às áreas de botânica, oceanografia, zoologia e ecologia. Para a avaliação dos periódicos, definiu-se um plano metodológico composto por duas etapas. A primeira incluiu a análise dos periódicos a partir dos indicadores bibliométricos, realizada a partir da porcentagem captada pela janela de citações de dois anos do Fator de Impacto e do próprio Fator de Impacto no período de 2007 a 2011, utilizando quartis para identificação dos periódicos de maior e menor posição no ranking da área, segundo cada um destes indicadores. A segunda etapa teve como objetivo realizar a análise dos aspectos formais dos periódicos, e considerou: tempo de existência ou duração, pontualidade, periodicidade, quantidade de artigos publicados por ano, porcentagem de artigos de pesquisa, datas de recebimento e aprovação, revisão por pares e idiomas de publicação. Dentre os principais resultados obtidos a partir da análise dos indicadores biblométricos, estão: os periódicos classificados pelo Qualis Biodiversidade apresentam uma baixa média, tanto da porcentagem da janela de citação, como do próprio Fator de Impacto; e 75% dos periódicos BOZE possuem índices abaixo de 20% para a janela de citação de dois anos. A análise dos aspetos formais não revelou diferenças significativas entre os periódicos, porém revelou a necessidade de uma revisão da qualidade dos periódicos classificados nos estratos B3 e B4. Constatou-se que as áreas BOZE apresentam diferenças significativas quanto à dinâmica de citações da produção científica, com destaque para as áreas de ecologia (maior obsolescência da literatura) e zoologia (menor obsolescência da literatura) que demonstraram desempenhos extremos. / Knowing the specifics of scientific communication in biodiversity, through the evaluation of journals that present research results in the area. The study was based on scientific journals, domestic and foreign, sorted by the 2012 Qualis Program for Biodiversity pertaining to the areas of botany, oceanography, zoology and ecology. A two steps method for the evaluation of journals was defined. The first included the analysis of the journals from the bibliometric indicators, carried out based on the citation percentage by quartile in a two year window of citations measuring the variation in impact factors over the years. The second aims to perform the analysis of the formal aspects of the journals, in particular: time of existence or duration, punctuality, frequency, number of articles published per year, percentage of research articles, dates of receipt and approval, review by peers and number of languages it is published in. Among the results of the study, it was found that the areas BOZE significant differences in the dynamics of scientific citations, highlighting the areas of ecology (greater obsolescence of literature) and zoology (lower obsolescence of literature) who demonstrated extreme performances.

However, this high increases requires a more qualified production, since it s essential that publications are relevant and original. In the psychological field, the assessment scientific journals of the CAPES/ANPEPP Commission had a strong effect on the scientific community and raised questions about the chosen evaluation method. Considering this impact, the aim of this research is a meta-analysis on the assessment of Psychological journals by CAPES to update the Qualis database. For this research, Psychology scientific editors (38 questionnaires were applied by e-mail) were consulted, also 5 librarians who work with scientific journals assessment (semi-structured interviews) and 8 members who acted as referees in the CAPES/ANPEPP Commission (open questions were sent by e-mail). The results are shown through 3 analysis: general evaluation of the Qualis process (including the Assessment Committee constitution), evaluation criteria used in the process and the effect of the evaluation on the scientific community (changes on the editing scene included). Some important points emerged: disagreement among different actors about the suitability of this evaluation model; the recognition of the improvement of scientific journals, mainly toward normalization and diffusion; the verification that the model does not point the quality of the journal, i.e., the content of the scientific articles published in the journal; the disagreement with the criteria used, seemed necessary and useful but needed to be discussed and cleared between the scientific community. Despite these points, the scientific journals evaluation still is the main method to assure quality for Psychology publications / A produ??o cient?fica brasileira tem passado por intensas mudan?as visando atender ?s demandas por produtividade dos pesquisadores. Entretanto, a multiplica??o de produtos acad?micos explicita a necessidade de qualifica??o dessa produ??o, uma vez que ? imprescind?vel a publica??o de material relevante e inovador. Na Psicologia, a avalia??o de peri?dicos empreendida pela Comiss?o CAPES/ANPEPP gerou grande repercuss?o na comunidade cient?fica e suscita questionamentos em torno do modelo de avalia??o utilizado. Considerando este impacto, o objetivo do trabalho ? fazer uma meta-avalia??o sobre o processo de avalia??o de peri?dicos cient?ficos utilizado nas revistas de Psicologia pela CAPES para alimenta??o da classifica??o Qualis. Para a pesquisa, foram consultados editores de revistas de Psicologia (n=38, question?rio enviado por e-mail), bibliotec?rios envolvidos com avalia??o de peri?dicos (n=5, entrevistas semi-estruturadas) e pesquisadores que participaram/participam da Comiss?o de Avalia??o (n=8, quest?es abertas via e-mail). Os resultados foram agrupados em 3 eixos tem?ticos: avalia??o geral sobre o processo de avalia??o Qualis (incluindo posicionamento sobre constitui??o das Comiss?es de Avalia??o), crit?rios de avalia??o utilizados no modelo adotado e os efeitos decorrentes das avalia??es para a comunidade cient?fica e mudan?as percebidas no quadro editorial. Alguns aspectos centrais ficaram evidenciados: a diverg?ncia entre os atores envolvidos quanto ? adequa??o do modelo em retratar a realidade editorial da ?rea; a discord?ncia em rela??o aos crit?rios adotados, que s?o vistos, simultaneamente, como necess?rios e ?teis; o reconhecimento da melhoria das revistas, principalmente no que se refere ? normaliza??o e difus?o; a indica??o de que esse modelo de avalia??o n?o aprecia a qualidade da revista propriamente dita, ou seja, o conte?do dos peri?dicos por meio dos artigos. Apesar desses pontos, a avalia??o dos peri?dicos em Psicologia continua a ser o principal instrumento para garantir um padr?o m?nimo de qualidade nas publica??es da ?rea

In this Research Commentary, we describe 3 journal metrics–the Web of Science's Impact Factor, Scopus's SCImago Journal Rank, and Google Scholar Metrics' h5-index—and compile the rankings (if they exist) for 69 mathematics education journals. We then discuss 2 paths that the mathematics education community should consider with regard to these citation-based metrics of journal quality: either working within the system to enhance our positioning or resisting or modifying the system itself.

Studies of the publishing practices in mathematics education have situated sets of journals in tiers of quality. These reports document the rankings and prestige of only a subset of the wealth of journals available for publishing in mathematics education. We posit that there is value, quality, and purpose to be found in journals that present studies that are of value on a regional level, and that the studies are extremely important to the field. This is particularly important for journals published in languages other than English, and the studies referenced above are almost entirely English-language journals. In this paper we seek to demonstrate that we as a field of researchers cannot discount the value and role of these regional and small-country journals. Using a case study of one small European country, we quantitatively present the areas of strength and weakness in the publishing practices in mathematics education journals that are unlikely to be seen beyond the region of their publication. We conclude with recommendations to publish in areas where research is lacking as well as recommendations to the community at large to recognize the value of such outlets.

This dissertation contributes to the research-based understanding of the scholarly journal as an artefact by studying the document structures of open access e-journals published by editors or small, independent publishers. The study focuses on the properties of the documents, taking its point of departure in a sociotechnical document perspective. This perspective is ope rationalised through a number of aspects from document architecture and information architecture: logical structures, layout structures, content structures, fi le structures, organisation systems, navigation, and labelling. The data collection took the form of a survey of 265 journal web sites, randomly selected, and qualitative readings of four journal web sites. The results of the study are presented based on choice of format and modes of representation; visual design; markup; metadata and paratexts; and document organisation and navigation. Two approaches were used to analyse the study fi ndings. To begin with, the remediation strategies of the scholarly journals were discussed; how does this document type, which has a long tradition in the print medium, take possession of the web medium? The ties to the print journal are still strong, and a majority of the journals treat the web medium mainly as a way to distribute journal articles to be printed and read as hard-copies. Many journals do, however, take advantage of such features as hypertext and full-text searching, and some use the fl exibility of the web medium to provide their users with alternative views. A small number of e-journals also refashion the print journal by including modes of representation not possible in print, such as audio or video, to illustrate and support the arguments made in their articles. Furthermore, interactive features are used to increase communication between different groups, but this type of communicative situation has not yet become an integral part of the scholarly journal. An electronic document is often viewed as more fl exible, but also less constant, than documents on paper. This sometimes means that the e-only journal is seen as a less dependable source for scholarly publishing than print. A second analytical approach showed how the architectures are used to indicate aspects that can enhance a journal’s chances of being regard ed as a credible source: a cognitive authority. Four strategies have been identifi ed as used by the journals: they employ architectural features to draw on the cognitive authority of people or organisations associated with the journal, on the cognitive authority of other documents, and on the professional use of the conventions of print journals and web sites respectively. By considering how document properties are used to indicate cognitive authority potential, a better understanding of how texts function as cognitive authorities is achieved. / <p>Akademisk avhandling som med tillstånd av samhällsvetenskapliga fakulteten</p><p>vid Göteborgs universitet för vinnande av doktorsexamen framläggs till</p><p>offentlig granskning kl. 13.15 måndagen den 28 april i hörsalen Sappören,</p><p>Göteborgs universitet, Sprängkullsgatan 25.</p>
