谈科技期刊的健康发展之路

要弄清科技期刊的价值所在及前进道路上的障碍,就必须了解科技工作者投稿倾向和对现有期刊的评价,以及阅读偏好与选刊标准。对此调查的结果是:作者希望把研究成果投到出版周期短、影响因子大、管理部门认可度高的期刊。国外期刊更符合作者的要求,一些高水平的科技论文因此向国外流动;读者对信息新、全、快、需要符合度高的期刊感兴趣。根据读者和市场的需求选准科技信息生产者(作者)并保证其产品及时广泛的传播和应用,在源头上为高质量的科技信息提供保障,留住作者,满足读者,使科技期刊在健康的轨道上前进。

On the Healthy Development of Scientific Journals

The understanding of the value of scientific journals and the obstacles in the way of their development is on the basis of the understanding of academic contributor's preference on the targeted journals, the evaluation of journals, the interest in reading and the criteria of choosing a journal. A survey on the previously mentioned topics reveals that authors show strong interest in the journals with short publishing cycle, high impact factor and wide recognition. Foreign journals are often the targets of contributors for they seek the journals that publish new, comprehensive and current information. This revelation gives the way to the development of Chinese scientific journals so that leading scholars in specialized fields can be attracted to such journals to offer high-quality contributions.
