| Title: | The view from Garfield’s shoulders: Tri-citation mapping of Eugene Garfield’s citation image over three successive decades |
| Authors: | McCain, Katherine W |
| Issue Date: | Sep-2010 |
| Publisher: | NISCAIR-CSIR, India |
| Abstract: | Tri-citation analysis mapping of Eugene Garfield’s
Citation Image authors (those frequently co-cited with him) is used to
identify the major research networks and topics
that are linked to his highly cited publications in three successive decades,
1978-87, 1988-97, and 1998-2007. Major research
topics that build on Garfield’s work— represented by Citation Image
author “constellations”— include mapping of
science, evaluative bibliometrics, scientometrics, webometrics, and sociology
of
science. Twenty-three of Garfield’s publications
are highly cited by one or more constellations in at least one of the three
decades. Five publications span all three
decades and two — his monograph Citation Analysis and his Science article
on journal
evaluation — are highly cited
by all constellations in all decades. |
