Abstract

As interdisciplinary research has been dominant in various fields, the purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between interdisciplinarity and research impact in the field of Library and Information Science. For a data set, ten journals ranked as the top of 2011 JCR's in terms of JIF (Journal Impact Factor) were selected. The citation data of 1,873 articles from the ten journals were collected from the WoS during the period from 2006 to 2010. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, as network analysis was conducted to investigate the interdisciplinarity of LIS field, interdisciplinarity indicators, and research impact factors were statistically analyzed. The findings of this study confirmed the interdisciplinary knowledge structure of the LIS field as previous studies identified. More importantly, this study demonstrated that a positive correlation existed between interdisciplinarity represented as betweenness centrality and research impact.

최근 다양한 학문 분야는 대내외적 요인으로 인해 학제적 연구 흐름에 영향을 받고 있는 추세이다. 본 연구는 문헌정보학 분야를 대상으로 학제성과 연구 영향력의 상관관계를 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 2011년 JCR(Journal Citation Reports)의 학술지 영향력 지수 상위에 해당하는 문헌정보학 학술지 10종을 선정하여 WoS(Web of Science) 인용색인 DB에서 2006년부터 2010년까지 1,873편의 논문의 참고문헌 데이터를 대상으로 분석하였다. 동시인용 네트워크 분석과 선정된 4가지 학제성 지수를 사용하여 문헌정보학 분야의 학제적 구조를 파악하고 학제성과 연구 영향력 사이의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 분석 결과를 통해 문헌정보학의 학제적 구조를 제시하였으며, 학제성 지수 중 매개중심성은 학술지 영향력 지수(5년) 그리고 논문당 영향도(Article Influence Score)와 통계적으로 유의한 상관관계가 있음이 밝혀졌다.
