초록

본 연구는 1950년에서 1969년 동안 American Documentation에 실린 정보학 논문의 저자 성별과 관련된 변수를 검토한다. American Documentation은 American Documentation Institute에서 출판되었고, 당시 중요한 정보학 저널이었으며, 1968년 모기관의 명칭이 American Society for Information Science로 변경되면서 1970년 표제가 Journal of the American Society for Information Science (JASIS)로 변경되었다. AD 이전에는 ALA에서 출판한 Journal of Documentary Reproduction (JDR)이 정보학 저널로 있었다. 연구에 따르면 JDR (1938-1942)의 전체 논문 중 여성은 약 8%를 차지하였고, JASIS (1970-1996)의 초기 27년에는 22%를 차지하였다. 본 연구는 1950-1969동안 American Documentation에 여성의 논문을 분석하고 있다. AD라는 이름으로 발행된 저널 전체에서 여성 저자는 17%를 구성하였는데 이러한 비율은 초기와 이후 시기의 중간 정도에 해당하고 있다.

The field of information science has been documented in several ways during its existence and in some ways has mirrored that of other scientific disciplines during the same period. This article examines variables related to author gender of information science articles in American Documentation (AD) during its entire run, 1950 through 1969. Published by the American Documentation Institute, AD was a primary information science journal of its time, changing its name in 1970 to the Journal of the American Society for Information Science (JASIS), corresponding with the change of the parent organization's name to the American Society for Information Science (1968). AD was preceded by an earlier "information science" publication, the Journal of Documentary Reproduction (JDR), 1938-1942, issued by the American Library Association. Studies indicate that females contributed about 8% for the entire run of articles in JDR (1938-1942) and about 22% for the first twenty-seven years of JASIS (1970-1996). The present study explores the nature of female contributions to AD for the middle period (1950-1969). It has been determined that for the entire run of the journal under the name AD, female authors comprised about 17% of the contributors, which places their publishing percentage for this period between the earlier and later periods, thus expectedly filling the gap.
