Yayınlar ve Atıflar Üzerine Nüfus ve GSYH Ekseninde Bir İnceleme

Year 2015, Volume: 4 Issue: 2, 61 - 73, 01.05.2015

Abstract

Bilimsel verimlilik göstergeleri olarak kabul edilen bilimsel yayın ve atıf sayılarının 1996 ile 2014 yılları arasında büyüme oranları ve nüfus ile ilişkisini incelemek bu çalışmanın konusunu oluşturmaktadır. Makalede, gelişmiş ve gelişmekte olan 20 ülkeyi kapsayacak şekilde, ülkelerin nüfusları, GSYH düzey ve büyümeleri ve özellikle iktisat, ekonometri ve finans alanındaki yayın ve atıf sayıları karşılaştırılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonucunda ülke grupları bakımından farklı trendler olduğu görülmektedir. Gelişmiş ülkeler ivme kaybederken, gelişmekte olan ülkelerde özellikle Çin, Hindistan, Brezilya ve Türkiye’de, 1996 ile 2014 dönemini karşılaştırdığımızda, nüfus ve GSYH ile birlikte atıf yapılmış yayın sayılarında yüksek oranlı artışlar göze çarpmaktadır.

A Descriptive Analysis of Publications and Citations on the Axes of Population and GDP

Year 2015, Volume: 4 Issue: 2, 61 - 73, 01.05.2015

Abstract

This work sets out to examine the relationship between the numbers of scientific publications in 20 countries (mostly devoted to economics, econometrics, and finance), along with their citations—which are generally accepted as indicators of scientific productivity—and their economic growth and population. Focusing on the years from 1996 to 2014, the paper compares both developed and developing countries and spotlights significant differences in the two groups. Overall, a trend is revealed over the covered time period in which the developed world appears to be losing momentum, while their developing counterparts are powering ahead. China, Brazil, India, and Turkey, in particular, show impressive gains in population, GDP, and numbers of cited publications.
