Analysis Of Bibliographic Data Research Articles

Comparative analysis of the capabilities of WoS and eLibrary for analyzing bibliographic networks

This article presents a comparative analysis of two major scientific publication databases: Web of Science Core Collection and eLibrary – to identify their differences and unique opportunities for exploration of bibliographic networks of Russian scientific authors. Current shortage of tools and approaches for collection, processing and analysis of bibliographic data in the Russian language constitutes the relevance of this study. Empirical analysis is based on comparison of respective arrays of scientific publications in the field of sociology over the period of 2010-2021. We propose a set of comparison criteria including those related to the procedure of data access, quality of data management, quantitative and qualitative features of the data. Inspection of the databases based on the proposed criteria aids in identification of intersections between both the collections and the respective qualitative observations about them. We make conclusions regarding the comparative advantages and weaknesses of both databases in regards to their potential as the sole data source for bibliographic studies, and make recommendations for their effective use in research on Russian science.

Artificial Intelligence in Agricultural Mapping: A Review

Artificial intelligence (AI) plays an essential role in agricultural mapping. It reduces costs and time and increases efficiency in agricultural management activities, which improves the food industry. Agricultural mapping is necessary for resource management and requires technologies for farming challenges. The mapping in agricultural AI applications gives efficiency in mapping and its subsequent use in decision-making. This study analyses AI’s current state in agricultural mapping through bibliometric indicators and a literature review to identify methods, agricultural resources, geomatic tools, mapping types, and their applications in agricultural management. The methodology begins with a bibliographic search in Scopus and the Web of Science (WoS). Subsequently, a bibliographic data analysis and literature review establish the scientific contribution, collaboration, AI methods, and trends. The United States (USA), Spain, and Italy are countries that produce and collaborate more in this area of knowledge. Of the studies, 76% use machine learning (ML) and 24% use deep learning (DL) for agricultural mapping applications. Prevailing algorithms such as Random Forest (RF), Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), and Support Vector Machines (SVMs) correlate mapping activities in agricultural management. In addition, AI contributes to agricultural mapping in activities associated with production, disease detection, crop classification, rural planning, forest dynamics, and irrigation system improvements.

Socioscientific Issue-Based Decision Making at Elementary School: Bibliometric Analysis

Decision making is a very important ability possessed by individuals at this time, especially in solving socio-scientific issues. The purpose of this study was to analyze research trends regarding socio-scientific issue-based decision making in elementary schools by conducting a bibliometric analysis of bibliographic data on technical research articles indexed by Google Scholar by combining analysis in terms of bibliometric map distribution using VOS viewer software. The research data was obtained from Google Scholar database through the Publish or Perish reference management application. The data filtering process was carried out based on the keywords "decision making and socio-scientific issues" contained in the topic, title, keywords, and abstract domains. The tracing was carried out on articles published from 2006 to 2022. From the search results obtained 23 relevant articles. The results showed that research on decision making based on socio-scientific issues was mostly carried out in 2010 and 2014. Research on decision making based on socio-scientific issues was rarely carried out at the elementary school level. So, it can be concluded that the opportunity for developing research regarding decision-making based on socio-scientific issues at the elementary school level is very large. Therefore, it is hoped that this study can provide references and considerations in seeking further research fields, especially those related to decision-making based on socio-scientific issues in elementary schools.

Going global: The scientometric development path of Russian academic journals in international reference databases

We attempt to answer the question that has persisted since the introduction of partial restrictions on access to international reference databases (IRDs) for Russian researchers: is it still reasonable for national scientific journals to strive to be indexed in these databases or does it make sense for them to tread their development path at the national level? The study tests the hypothesis that indexation of Russian academic journals in the Web of Science and Scopus databases affects their scientometric indicators. Scientometric management and data management approaches constitute the theoretical framework of the paper. The key research method is scientometric analysis of bibliographic data. An extensive list of journals’ scientometric indicators was addressed, including those used when compiling the Science Index ranking until 20232. The research data were retrieved from the scientific electronic library eLibrary and Scopus and the Web of Science databases. The sample of the study is comprised of Russian academic journals indexed in the IRDs and classified in the State Classifier of Scientific and Technical Information (GRNTI) as the socio-humanitarian block. The analysis of the sample indicates that the effect expected from journals’ indexation in the IRDs, which suggests expanding the international pool of authors and a growing global interest, is overestimated, since it is largely ensured by an increase in the national academic audience. We substantiate that, despite the positive correlation between the rise in scientometric indicators and journals’ indexation in the IRDs, the mere fact of entering these databases is not the primary condition for success and the ultimate goal of development. The paper formulates recommendations stating that interaction between journals and the IRDs should be organized in accordance with editors’ goals and plans for the development of periodical

서지자료 분석을 통한 윤동주 시 연구 1

The purpose of this paper is to discuss Yun Dong-ju's poetry through an empirical analysis of “Eorini(Child)” and “Aisaenghwal(Child Life)”, which are bibliographic data related to Yun Dong-ju. Based on the analysis of “Eorini(Children)” and “Aisaenghwal(Child Life)”, this paper was raised questions on widely known opinions such as the view that the motivation for Yun Dong-ju to start recording study notes was the influence of Song Mong-gyu, and that the decisive opportunity for Yun Dong-ju to create cildren’s poem was “Jeong Ji-yong’s collection of Poem”. In addition, we confirmed the Korean translation of Turgenev's ‘A Beggar’ published in “Aisaenghwal(Child Life)”, inferred the possibility that the text of ‘A Beggar’ read by Yun Dong-ju was a Japanese translation, and discussed the parody technique shown in the prose poem ‘Turgenev's Hill’.

Tooth intentional replantation from 1964 to 2023: A bibliometric analysis.

There is no thorough overview of intentional tooth replantation techniques. We performed a bibliometric analysis of the development of intentional tooth replantation. A comprehensive search of the Web of Science and SCOPUS databases was conducted in February 2023. Original articles and reviews of human studies with "intentional replantation" or synonyms in the titles, abstracts, or keywords were included. A descriptive analysis of bibliographic data, co-occurrence analysis, and coupling of publications was performed. Multivariate analysis was used to explore the bibliometric parameters associated with the citation counts. The study included 171 papers, which were co-authored by 500 individuals affiliated with 217 institutions from 28 countries/regions. The USA contributed the greatest number of publications, followed by China, and Japan. The USA had 694 citations, followed by Japan (210), and Turkey (210). The Journal of Endodontics and Dental Traumatology contributed the most citations. Five directions for future research were identified based on the coupling relationships of publications, including "managing vertical root fractures with adhesive resin using the intentional replantation technique," "intentional replantation for periodontally hopeless or endodontically compromised teeth," "intentional replantation for treating abnormalities of morphological development," "outcomes and prognosis factors of intentional replantation," and "treating root replacement resorption by intentional replantation." Multivariate analysis showed that the publication year, Journal Citation Reports ranking of journals, study design, and disease type were predictors of citation counts. This bibliometric analysis provides a comprehensive description of the intentional replantation technique. The USA published the greatest volume of papers and generated the most citations. The Journal of Endodontics and Dental Traumatology are considered the most influential. The Journal Citation Reports journal ranking (Q1, Q2), study design (case reports, cohort studies), and disease type (crown root fractures) were associated with the citation counts.

ТРОМБОЛИТИЧЕСКАЯ ТЕРАПИЯ У ДЕТЕЙ (ЧАСТЬ 1)

Thromboses in children represent the serious pathology that can lead to disability and even death of a pediatric patient. At certain localizations of thrombosis, the most rapid restoration of vascular patency (reperfusion) becomes prognostically significant. The most accessible method for reperfusion is drug therapy, in which a drug is injected into the patient's blood, which in its turn significantly accelerates the process of fibrinolysis, i.e., thrombolytic therapy (TT). The purpose of this bibliographical review was to familiarize physicians, especially pediatricians with the place of TT in modern clinical practice. The article represents bibliographical review of published works for over 50 years (since 1966). Authors have used both domestic Russian resources and the PUBMED database. Articles were selected based on the relevance. Statistical analysis was not performed. A review and analysis of bibliographical data on the modern use of TT in pediatric practice is presented. Preference was given to the most modern publications containing analytical information with full text available both pro bono and online. Authors emphasize pediatric practitioners’ attention on the fact that TT at the current level of knowledge is a fairly effective and predictable method for rapid reperfusion.

Methodology for the Study of Nationalist Discourse in a Multi-Ethnic Environment

This article reviews the main methodological approaches to the study of the discourse of nationalism in multi-ethnic societies that exist in international research practice.Aim. Purpose is to review the existing approaches to the study of nationalist discourse in modern research, their advantages and disadvantages.Tasks. Objectives are to determine what are the current methods for the study of nationalist discourse in the scientific environment, to examine the limitations of their implementation, to identify the most promising approaches, to specify what are the advantages and disadvantages of the used methodological approaches.Methods. The comparative analysis method was applied to determine the advantages and disadvantages of the methodological approaches to study the discourse of nationalism. The article also used the method of bibliographic data analysis in order to deepen the understanding of the existing methodological approaches to the study of the discourse of nationalism by searching and studying scientific materials and works of scientists.Results. The article deals with the quantitative and qualitative methods to study the nationalist discourse in multi-ethnic environment, the difficulties and limitations of the implementation of these or those methods, as well as their advantages and disadvantages. Special attention was paid to the method of content analysis of social networks and blogosphere, since today the study of sentiments in social networks is gaining importance, due to the increasing breadth of audience coverage in different countries as well as the emergence of new formats of citizen participation, such as online participation.Conclusions. Today, the discourse related to nationalist sentiments is most prevalent in internet, for a number of reasons, including the speed and ease of presenting information and the horizontal connectivity. Therefore, in multi-ethnic societies, great importance should be given to scrutinising content on social media including the use of ‘hate speech’. In this regard, the paper makes recommendations for analysing the information space and strengthening work in this direction.

Poezie na křižovatce : poznámky ke kvantitativním aspektům české poezie v letech 1945–1959

This study, based on the quantitative analysis of bibliographical data, investigates changes in the way Czech literature was published in the period 1945–1959. Fundamental political, cultural, and social transformations during this period repeatedly impacted literary and cultural periodicals, as well as the daily press. The immediate post-war period, characterized by the swift renewal of literary and cultural life, as well as a rapid increase in the publication of literary texts, was in 1948 followed by growing restrictions on the freedom to disseminate one's own work, peaking in 1952. After this, there was a certain revival of literary production, which remained essentially stable in the second half of the 1950s. In addition to general quantitative data, this study tracks changes in more narrowly focused data sets, especially those concerning the publication of poetry during the period in question.

In order to smoothly promote cooperation between the construction of the Silk Road Economic Belt and the Bright Road, it is necessary to further improve common procedures and docking mechanisms, to fully use the communication capabilities of the SCO to promote economic cooperation.Conclusion. One Belt One Road and Nurly Zhol have achieved strong complementarity. The cooperation between them has satisfied the development needs of Kazakhstan and China. But the security of cooperation requires serious attention. China, Kazakhstan, and even the countries of Central Asia should jointly raise security awareness and deepen cooperation in non-traditional security areas within the framework of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and deepen the connection between the SCO and other regional security mechanisms.

A systematic review of research on the relationship between school leadership and student achievement: An updated framework and future direction

This systematic review sought to expand our knowledge of the increasing research studies focusing on the empirical link between school leadership and student achievement. Using five different data sources (Scopus, WoS, ERIC, Google Scholar, and Retrospective Reference Harvesting Procedure), we created a data set of 144 journal articles. Descriptive analysis of bibliographic data and content analysis of full texts were employed in the review process. The results revealed instructional leadership as the most frequently used school leadership model in the relevant research. There has been a growing tendency to use the direct effect model with the increase in the studies from non-English speaking western societies. Indeed, the use of rational and organizational variables has dominated the mediating effect studies, while moderating effect studies as well as exploratory and explanatory type of studies have not received much attention. Based on these results, a framework representing the broader picture of the current research on the relationship between school leadership and student learning is provided. In addition, several recommendations were made, aiming to build the research capacity in furthering our understanding of how school leadership practices impact student learning and achievement.

Issues of countering the shadow economy in the scientific literature

The article summarizes the theoretical and methodological tools for studying the shadow economy in foreign and domestic scholarship. A comparative analysis of the existing and used diagnostic approaches for scaling the shadow economy, including review articles devoted to this paper, is carried out. The characteristics of scientific publications on countering the shadow economy are presented. In the course of the study, an analysis of features and directions of research by Russian and foreign scientists of the phenomenon of “shadow economy” was carried out, a comparison of the data array of scientific publications by bibliometric methods (VOSviewer) conducted on the international databases Dimensions, which is one of the new and is characterized by its objectivity, and the Scopus database, which is the most qualitative and widespread for the analysis of bibliographic data. It was revealed that studies in the format of articles on the shadow economy are mostly published in the humanities, which is more consistent with the Scopus database. For domestic articles, the eLIBRARY.RU scientific electronic library was used, as one of the largest and most authoritative bibliographic databases in Russia. It was revealed that the citation rate of Russian scientific works is low, but at the same time there are high counts of downloads and views, which indicates interest in this topic, but also the low scientific significance of these publications. According to the authors, in domestic and foreign scientific publications, there are insufficient recommendations on counteracting the shadow economy and, taking into account the conclusions of the analysis of methods for measuring the scale of the shadow economy, insufficient attention is paid to the regionalization of factors in the development of shadow economic relations, which would make it possible to increase the practical efficiency of the scientific research. A review of methods for measuring the scale of the shadow economy allows us to conclude that it is difficult to understand what the shadow economy is.

Exploring Topics and Genres in Storytime Books: A Text Mining Approach

Objective – While storytime programs for preschool children are offered in nearly all public libraries in the United States, little is known about the books librarians use in these programs. This study employed text analysis to explore topics and genres of books recommended for public library storytime programs. Methods – In the study, the researchers randomly selected 429 children books recommended for preschool storytime programs. Two corpuses of text were extracted from the titles, abstracts, and subject terms from bibliographic data. Multiple text mining methods were employed to investigate the content of the selected books, including term frequency, bi-gram analysis, topic modeling, and sentiment analysis. Results – The findings revealed popular topics in storytime books, including animals/creatures, color, alphabet, nature, movements, families, friends, and others. The analysis of bibliographic data described various genres and formats of storytime books, such as juvenile fiction, rhymes, board books, pictorial work, poetry, folklore, and nonfiction. Sentiment analysis results reveal that storytime books included a variety of words representing various dimensions of sentiment. Conclusion – The findings suggested that books recommended for storytime programs are centered around topics of interest to children that also support school readiness. In addition to selecting fictionalized stories that will support children in developing the academic concepts and socio-emotional skills necessary for later success, librarians should also be mindful of integrating informational texts into storytime programs.

Exploring Emerging Technologies with Analysis of Bibliographic Data Focused on Plasma Surface Treatment

Research trends and emerging technologies were explored through the Web of Science (WoS) literature of the last decade in relation to plasma technology, especially plasma surface treatment, widely used in all industries. For this, a network analysis using country and author keywords and emerging technology search algorithms, with regard to novelty, fast growth and impact, were used. As a result, we derived 40 keywords in terms of novelty and fast growth. Additionally, with these keywords, we traced the impact based on the citation relationships. Finally, nine keywords which were analyzed to contain many new technological issues were identified by deriving the author keywords included in the relevant documents. It is expected that the new technology fields derived from this paper can contribute to establishing a preemptive R&D strategy.

Prevention and therapy of aging – potential of aesthetic acupuncture and aromatherapy

Aesthetic medicine is evolving rapidly in response to the increasing life expectancy and the psychosocial need to maintain an attractive appearance. The aim of this article is to examine the scientific literature and world practice regarding the application of aesthetic acupuncture and aromatherapy and their ability to influence the aging process. Material and Methods Documentary content analysis of bibliographic data, scientific literature and good practices concerning the preventive and therapeutic use of aesthetic acupuncture and essential oils. Results Review of the scientific literature and good practices reveals the possibilities of independent application of aesthetic acupuncture (incl. aromatherapy) to influence the aging process. No data has been found in foreign and Bulgarian scientific literature on the combined use of acupuncture and local application of essential oils. Conclusion Aesthetic acupuncture and aromatherapy are well known and represented in scientific knowledge as separate therapies. Practical experience of European integrative clinics in the field of aesthetic acupuncture reveals new guidelines for the development and introduction of the combined methodology „aroma acupuncture“ and its influence on the aging process. The analysis of global science and practice stimulates scientific research in the University Center for Eastern Medicine for new opportunities to complement the prevention and treatment of face aging with aesthetic aroma acupuncture.
