Research On The Application Of The Red Point Factor In The Academic Quality Evaluation Of Journals Of Medical Colleges And Universities

Objective:Based on the data of the Report of Chinese Science and Technology journals published by the China Institute of Science and Technology Information,this paper studies the correlation between the red point factor and other evaluation indexes of journals.This paper discusses the reasonable use range of the red point factor,analyzes the application of the red point factor in journal publishing and evaluation,and puts forward ideas and suggestions for journal editing and publishing on this basis.Through this research,not only that the red point factor is evaluated in the way of utilisation,but also reference and suggestions for improving the academic quality of Chinese Medical University Journals is provided,which is helpful to realize the development of internationalization of Chinese university journals.Method:Literature research method: collecting and screening literature and data from the CNKI and the Citation Report of Chinese Science and Technology journals published by the China Institute of Science and Technology information,establishing a general understanding of evaluation indicators of the Chinese science and technology journals,studying the basic meaning and scope of use of these indicators,understanding the current research around red point factor in domestic academic circles.Further,the red point factor is used to analyze and evaluate the academic quality of Chinese university journals.Literature analysis method:(1)useing SPSS to analyze the correlation between red point factor and the other periodical evaluation indexes,then discussing the results;(2)combining the word cloud map generated by tagxedo to further analyze the meaning and the application scope of the red point factor,and then combining with specific samples to further verify the conclusions.Comparative analysis: through the study of similar types of literature with data processed,the results are compared to find out the differences among them,to analyze the causes of the differences,put forward problems and conclusions.Result:(1)Among the 56 journals of Medical University included in the Citation Report of Chinese Science and Technology journals,91% of them have a red point factor in the range of [0.5,0.75].(2)The red point factor of the Journal of Medical University is related to six other evaluation indexes(including literature selection rate,regional distribution number,institutional distribution number,ratio of overseas papers,citation half-life,cited half-life),and the results are different from those of other domestic scholars.(3)By studying the word cloud chart,it is evident that there are many common medical words in the high-frequency key words of the Journal of Medical University that do not have the characteristics of the current positioning of the journal,such as influencing factors,treatment results,journal,etc.This paper thinks that it will have an impact on the calculation of the red point factor,and puts forward new problems for the research of the red point factor.Conclusion:(1)The results of correlation between the red point factor and other periodical evaluation indexes are not widely used.In fact,they can only be used in comparison to similar periodicals.It is not meaningful to discuss the correlation between the red point factor and the other indexes without specifying the types of the journals.(2)There are defects in using keywords as the calculation basis of the red point factor directly.Because of the nonstandard indexing of key words,there are many common medical words that do not have the characteristics of journals and academic quality.The subject hot spot found by the red point factor obtained in this way may not be the real subject hot spot,but only a set of high-frequency key words.(3)the red point factor is not stable in a certain type of journals,and the year-by-year change span of different years is large,so we should treat the red point factor and its role rationally.In order to improve the red point factor,journals should not choose articles by high frequency keywords,which results in the loss of original features.
