Abstract

It needs to be considered that citing is net a static process but a dynamic process which is to produce to reproduce and to distribute knowledge by the interaction between societies surrounding the citer. This study begins by briefly acknowledging that citation is a universal practice in terms of establishing citer's own basis of research on the basis of the relation to previous studies and persuadeing potential citer to cite his/her research product. This study, however, is a preliminary attempt to examine the premise that although citing is a unversal practice. but citer motivations can be influenced by various citation environmental contexts surrounding the citer. This study presented general citation motivations derived from previous studies: (1) substantial motivations - conceptional and methodological citations 2) persuasive motivations - positive, applied, and negative citations, (3) perfunctory motivations - perfunctory and bibliographic citations, and (4) social relation motivations - personal connections and knowledge familiarity citations. In addition, this study identified citation environment factors affecting these citation motivations: (1) citer and documentation factor, (2) social and cultural environment, (3) information environment, and (4) international knowledge system environment. Each citation environment factor presented should be interpreted not as a separate factor, but rather as a close interrelation among these environment factors, Finally, the model of the citation environment factors developed in this study was discussed in the aspects of the relationship between citation motivations and their citation environment factors. This study suggested that further research should be conducted in order to examine these relationships more empirically and citation should be considered as a social product reflecting the interaction between citer and various citation environments.

연구자의 인용행위는 정태적 과정이기 보다는 인용자를 둘러싼 제 사회와의 상호작용에 의해 지식을 생산 재생산하고, 유통하는 역동적 과정으로 파악할 필요가 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 인용이 선행연구와의 관련성을 토대로 인용자의 연구논거를 확립하고, 설득하기 위한 보편적인 행위이지만 이러한 보편적인 인용행위를 수행하는 인용자의 다양한 인용환경적 맥락이 인용자의 인용동기에 영향을 미칠 것이라는 전제를 이론적으로 논의하기 위한 연구이다. 본 연구에서는 인용동기 관련 선행연구의 검토를 통해 일반적인 인용동기 요인으로서 (1) 실질적 동기 (2) 설득적 동기 (3) 형식적 동기 (4) 사회적 관계 동기를 도출하고, 이러한 일반적 인용동기에 영향을 미치는 인용환경요인으로서 (1) 인용자와 문헌 요인 (2) 사회문화적 환경 (3) 정보환경 (4) 국제적인 지식체제 환경을 제시하였다. 제시된 각각의 인용환경은 인용자를 둘러싼 별개적인 인용환경 범주로 파악하기 보다는, 서로 유기적인 관련성이라는 맥락에서 인용환경요인의 이론적 모형을 개발하고 인용이란 그 사회의 다양한 인용환경과 인용자와의 상호작용을 반영한 사회적 산물로서 이해되어져야 함을 제안하였다.
