Abstract

This study empirically analyzed the proportion and method of Open Access (OA) in Korea, China, Japan, the United States, United Kingdom based on the Web of Science (WoS) papers. In addition, through the verification of the moderating effect, it was verified whether there is a difference in the effect of the amount of citation depending on the maturity of OA according to the countries or academic fields. As a result of the analysis, the proportion of OA was the highest in the UK at 62.7%, and the lowest in China at 38.0%. Second, the UK and US had a high proportion of indicators through self-archiving and APC-based Gold Hybrid, while only the Gold indicators were found to be prominent in China and Korea. Third, in the UK, US and Japan, the higher the proportion of OA, the greater the effect of inducing the citations. However, Korea (B=-0.00003, p<0.01) and China (B=-0.00001, p<0.01) showed the opposite direction. In addition, in most academic fields, the OA proportion had an effect of inducing citation, but a negative effect was found in the engineering field (B=-0.00002, p<0.01).

본 연구는 Web of Science (WoS) 논문을 기반으로 주요 5개국의 Open Access (OA) 논문 비중과 방식을 분석하고 조절효과(Moderating Effect) 검증을 통해 OA의 피인용 유도에 차이가 나타나는지 검증하였다. 분석 결과, OA 비중은 영국이 62.7%로 가장 높았으며, 중국이 38.0%로 가장 낮게 나타났다. 또한 셀프 아카이빙과 Gold Hybrid가 OA의 주요 실천 방법 중 하나로 나타난 영미와 달리, 중국과 한국의 OA 논문은 Gold 저널 출판에 집중되어 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 두 번째, 조절효과 분석 결과, 우수 논문의 OA 출판 및 유통이 활성화된 영국, 미국, 일본의 경우 OA 비중이 높을수록 피인용량을 유도하는 효과가 커지는 것으로 나타났으나, 한국(B=-0.00003, p<0.01)과 중국(B=-0.00001, p<0.01)에서는 역의 방향성이 나타나 차이를 보였다. 더불어 대부분의 학문분야에서 OA가 피인용을 유도하였으나 공학 분야(B=-0.00002, p<0.01)에서는 역의 방향성을 보이는 것으로 분석되었다.
