Abstract

Writing high-quality papers and publishing them at prestigious academic journals would be something that every scholar strives for. This study made a network with nine academic journals in South Korea in the field of public administration and public policy and analyzed the influence of academic journals through social network analysis. Using centrality measures, such as degree centrality, beta centrality, and eigenvector centrality, this study found that Korean Public Administration Review has the highest influence on the journal network, followed by Korean Public Studies Review. However, different choice of centrality measure led to different ranking of journals in terms of their influence.

양질의 논문을 생산하고 자신의 논문이 저명한 학술지에 게재되어 보다 큰 영향력을 가지는 것은 모든 연구자들이 원하는 바라고 할 수 있다. 이 논문은 사회연결망분석을 통해 행정학과 정책학 분야의 일반학술지 9개를 선정하여 네트워크를 구성하고 이 9개 학술지들 간의 상호인용분석을 통해 각 학술지들이 네트워크상에서 가지는 영향력을 분석하였다. 네트워크상에서의 영향력에 대해 각각 의미하는 바가 다른 연결중심성, 베타중심성, 고유벡터중심성의 3개 중심성지수를 통해 분석한 결과 한국행정학보가 행정학과 정책학분야를 통틀어 가장 큰 영향력을 가지는 학술지로 나타났고 한국정책학회보가 그 뒤를 이었다. 그리고 중심성지수의 선택이 달라질 때 마다 학술지들이 가지는 영향력 순위가 달라지는 경향을 보였다.
