The purpose of this study is to investigate how one can find all journals of a country covered in a database such as SCI. We searched SCI and JCR Science Edition 2006 databases for Korean journals using four definition criteria-Country of a journal publication, Editorship, Unique words appeared in a journal title designating a country, a number of papers from a country in a journal. We also checked related literatures and websites to find information on SCI Korean journals. The study shows that 40 Korean journals were covered in SCI in 2006. SCI identified 38 of them as journals from South Korea, and JCR 2006 included 36. 11 journals had unique words indicating that they are Korean journals. 9 journals were Korean journals among the top 20 SCT journals by the number of papers with Korean addresses, and 36 journals were included among the top 500 SCI journals.

The purpose of the study is to investigate the international standings of Korean medical journals and to provide a concrete journal evaluation data. The SciSearch database was searched for the 7,779 papers published in 8 Korean medical journals between 1989 and 1998. The frequency of citation to each journal was measured for each year, and the journal impact factor was calculated from 1991 to 1999 exactly as it is calculated in the Jour~~lnl Citation Reports (JCR). The Korean-language journals were rarely cited in SCI, even though the journals were of the medical areas where Korean researchers published a great deal of SCI papers. The number of citations to English-language journals started to grow from 1994 and increased rapidly from 1997. The citation interval is getting shorter, resulting in the drastic increases in the impact factors in the recent years. The nine-year averages of impact factors of the journals were distributed between 0.002 and 0.126. The international standings of Korean medical journals are very poor. When the impact factors were compared to those of SCI journals in the same subject category, Korean-language journals fell below the last SCI journals ranked by the impact factor, and the English-language journals were at the bottom among the SCI journals. The impact factors of 3 English-language Korean medical journals were about 2.0 when they became SCI journals in the late 1990s.

A questionnaire survey was conducted to investigate the use of SCI and awareness of SCI source journals by fatuity members at Korean medical colleges. 104 out of 180 faculty members randomly chosen from four prestigious medical colleges returned the questionnaires malled to them. Korean medical researchers rarely used SCI as their main source of research Information. They rather used the MEDLINE to seek the research information probably because they are easily available from their local libraries. Furthermore. many respondents mistakenly Identified 'SCI journals ranked by Impact factor' lists found In Journal Citation Reports (JCR) with the SCI Itself. That Is. In Korean medical research community. the virtue of SCI Is not as an Index but as a source of SCI Journal Impact factor Information. It Is because the Interest in impact factor Is highly associated with the pressure to publish In one of those SCI source Journals. The collected data shows that even the medical professors at these prestigious medical colleges suffer from the lack of knowledge and information about SCI. SCI source journals and their Impact factors. Nontheless, core journal titles of a medical specialty selected by Korean medical professors are mostly high-Impact Journals of Its field (1.e.. belong to the upper 1/3) zone ranked by Impact factor). Within each specialty. the Journal ranks assigned to the selected core Journals by the respondents agree with the ranks by SCI Impact factor to a great extent. That Is. the Korean medical scientists awareness on SCI Journals as defined in this study is in good standing. Therefore. a policy of a medical college to require medical professors to publish In SCI Journals to be promoted or a policy to evaluate a researcher's work by the fact that his research papers are published In SCI Journals can be positively pursued.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the selection mechanism of the Science Citation Index(SCI) in domestic journals. Analysis has been carried out specially on the \"Journal of the Korean Nuclear Society\", which is a leading journal in the nuclear field in Korea. It is published in English and meets the basic standards of technical journal, however, does not meet the SCI selection criteria in many aspects. Major problems are; 1) Small number of research institutes and universities submit articles to the journal. 2) The impact factor is 0.097, far less than 0.764, the average value of SCI, and the rate of self-citation approaches only to 50%. 3) The journal is not distributed to the libraries in universities and research institutes that have nuclear engineering programs in foreign countries. 4) It does not have editor from international communities, only domestic editors serve for the journal. The study made recommendations for ways to be selected by SCI and utilization of this study for selection criteria of SCI.

지금까지 국내 연구자들이 SCI 학술지에 발표한 의학논문의 수가 아주 미미하기 때문에 전 세계 학자들이 발표한 SCI 전체논문 중 한국논문이 차지하는 비중은 지극히 낮은 것으로 보인다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 1980년부터 1990년 사이에 국내에 있는 의학 관련기관의 연구자들이 SCI 학술지에 발표한 논문이 SCI 전체 논문 중 차지하는 비중(Percentage Contribution from Korea to SCI Database)을 47개 의학분야별로 조사하였다. 또한. 본 연구에서는 "국제적으로 영향력 있는 학술연구 활동실적(i.e., Mainstream Productivity)"이 타 분야보다 뛰어난 한국의 의학분야를 밝히기 위하여. SCI 학술지에 발표된 모든 한국 의학논문 중 한 분야의 논문이 자치하는 몫(Percentage Share)을 SCI 전체 논문 중 그 분야의 논문이 차지하는 몫으로 나누어 그 상대적 크기를 분석함으로써, 우리나라 학자들의 Mainstream Productivity Ratio(R)를 각 분야별로 측정하였다. (R=1은 SCI 의학 학술지에 발표된 모든 논문 중에서 어떤한 분야의 논문이 차지하는 비율만큼 한국에서도 그 분야의 논문이 SCI 학술지에 투고되었다는 의미이다.) 1980년에서 1990년 사이에 한국 학자들에 의하여 SCI에 발표된 의학논문이 SCI 전체 의학논문 중에서 차지하는 비율은 $0.051\%$였다. 각 의학 분야별로는, Biotechnology & applied microbiology의 기여도가 $0.8\%$를 차지하여 한국 최고를 기록하였다. 전 세계 문헌의 $1\%$ 이상을 생산한 의학 분야는 없었다. 전 세계 문헌의 $0.1\%$ 이상을 SCI 학술지에 게재한 의학분야는 47개 중 6개인데, 위에 언급한 Biotechnology & applied microbiology를 제외하면 $0.1\%$에서 $0.2\%$ 사이의 기여도를 보였다. 최다 편수의 논문을 낸 Pharmacology 8l Pharmacy$(0.075\%)$나 두 번째로 논문수가 많았던 Biochemisty & molecular biology$(0.054\%)$의 기여도는 $0.1\%$에 미치지 못하였다. 조사대상이 된 47개 의학분야 중 27개 분야에서 예상된 것보다 상대적으로 적은수(R<1)의 한국 논문이 SCI 학술지에 게재되었다. Mainstream Productivity Ratio가 3보다 큰 분야는 4개인데, 그 중 Biotechnology & applied microbiology는 R=15.63으로 아주 월등한 논문 발표실적을 올렸다. Dermatology & venereal diseases(3.02)와 Engineering, biomedical(3.75)도 국제적으로 영향력 있는 학술지에 논문 발표실적이 뛰어난 의학분야이다.

The study investigated the citation indicators and the citation analysis data developed in the KoMCI(Korean Medical Citation Index) project. With the full understanding of the current level of citation rates of Korean medical journals by Korean medical journals. and of the characteristics and problems associated with the KoMCI citation indicators, it is possible to further develop or modify citation indicators which will better represent the citation patterns of Korean medical journals. The highest impact factor reported in the KoMCI 2000 : Korean Medical Journal Citation Reports, which covered 69 Korean medical journals published in 2000 is 0.424 and the average is 0.182. It is because only 8.5% of references cited in Korean medical journal articles is to the Korean journal articles, The journal self-citation rates are very high (usually higher than 50%) due to the fact that there are only a few Korean journals published in the same subject area. The KoMCI impact factors of two Korean SCI journals for which SCI JCR reported the SCI 2000 impact factors are about 1/3 of the SCI impact factors. It is because SCI is based on the citations received from 5,900 journals whereas KoMCI is from 69 journals.

It is very important to analyze and provide information resources for research output produced in the computer field, the core science of the 4th Industrial Revolution. In this paper, SCI journals cited from domestic journals in the computer field were identified and the citation rankings and their co-citation networks were generated, analyzed, mapped and visualized. For this, the bibliographic and citation index information from 2015 to 2017 in the KSCD were used as the basis data, and the co-citation method and network centrality analysis were used. As a result of this study, the number of citations and the citation ranks of SCI journals and papers cited by korean journals in the computer field were analyzed, and peak time(2 years), half-life(6.6 years), and immediacy citation rate(2.4%) were measured by citation age analysis. As a result of network centrality analysis, Three network centralities(degree, betweenness, closeness) of the cited SCI journals were calculated, and the ranking of journals by each network centrality was measured, and the relationship between the subject classifications of the cited SCI journals was visualized through the mapping of the network.

최근 Elsevier사에서 제작하여 현재 베타버전으로 시험 서비스 중에 있는 Scopus는,13,000여종의 학술지에 수록된 2,600만여 건의 논문에 대한 초록을 제공하는 세계에서 가장 규모가 큰 웹 데이터베이스이다. 여기에는 SCI와 SSCI에 등재된 7,000여종의 학술지와 자체적인 학술지 선정기준에 의해 추가한 6,000여종의 학술지에 수록된 논문에 대한 초록을 제공하고 있다. 또한 최근 5년간의 학술지에 수록된 각 논문의 참고문헌을 제공하고 있으며, 이들 참고문헌을 토대로 각 논문에 대한 피인용 회시수와 인용문헌에 대한 정보도 제공하고 있다. 이처럼 최근 등장한 Scopus가 SCI와 SSCI에 수록된 학술지를 망라하고 있을 뿐 아니라 인용정보도 제공하고 있다는 점에서, 현재 전세계적으로 가장 대표적인 인용색인인 SCI, SSCI및 A&HCI의 웹 데이터베이스인 Web of Science와 필적할 것으로 보인다. 그러나 Elsevier사에서는, 엄격한 심사기준에 의해 핵심 학술지만을 유지시키고 있는 Thomson-ISI사와는 달리, 학술지의 망라성에 비중을 두고 최소한의 질적 수준을 갖춘 학술지라면 모두 Scopus에서 별도로 추가한 6,000여종의 학술지에 대해 다각적인 측면에서의 검증이 필요할 것으로 보인다.
