Abstract

The purpose of this study is to provide an in-depth analysis on the publication patterns of the 1,029 journal articles by the Life Sciences' faculty at the K University, for the years 2004-2017 and to investigate any difference between their publication patterns and the citedness for the years 2004-2018. Among the three funding agency types, the research publications supported by foreign funding received the more citations than publications by other types of funding, and the study also found a statistical difference in the citedness (F = 10.467, p < .000***). In addition, the internationally co-authored publications received more citations than three other types of co-authored publications in terms of the immediacy index per publication and the average citations per publication.

본 연구의 목적은 정부로부터 많은 연구개발비의 지원과 더불어 연구역량 및 국제적 연구네트워크를 갖추고 있는 K대학교 생명과학과 교수진이 발표한 14년간(2004년-2017년)의 학술지 논문을 대상으로 연구개발비 재원별, 주제 영역별, 발표 주요 학술지, 연구 유형별로 조사함으로써 국내 생명과학 분야 선도 연구자들의 연구 발행 패턴의 특성을 파악하였다. 또한 교수진이 발표한 논문의 발행 패턴에 따른 15년간(2004년-2018년) 즉시 피인용 빈도 및 피인용 빈도, 주제 영역 학술지 영향계수(IF) 4분위 수 등 피인용도와의 관계를 분석하였다. 연구개발비 지원 유형에 따른 논문 1편당 즉시 피인용 빈도를 Welch 검증 분석 결과, 세 가지 유형 중 해외기관 재원에 의한 연구 논문이 1.8회로 가장 높았으며 통계적으로 유의미한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다(F = 10.467, p < .000***). 또한 공동연구 유형별로 논문 1편당 즉시 피인용 빈도 및 논문 1편당 피인용 빈도에서 해외 기관과의 국제 공동연구 논문이 다른 세 가지 공동연구 유형에 의한 논문과 비교해 더 많이 인용된 것으로 분석되었다.
