Abstract

In this study, a comparative analysis of textile schools around the world based on research journal publications is made using the most popular bibliometric evaluation methodology. The study benchmarks bibliometric evaluation of professional research institutions related to textile, apparel, fashion and clothing in recent years from 2014 to 2019. Based on Web of Science^TM, a total of 124,362 research publications (not counting conference papers) from 2014 to 2019 were found to be textile or fiber related. Out of more 1000 textile schools worldwide, 31 schools from 18 countries or territories were identified to be among the top 100 institutions contributing the textile or fiber related publications listed in Web of Science^TM. These 31 textile schools are ranked in terms of productivity and citation impact, including total number of publications, publication per staff, h-index, total citations, average citations, and citation per staff. While these bibliometric measures provide some insights of the trends of the research activities and influences of textile schools in the world, they should be interpreted with caution as the quality of research contributions in terms of originality, scientific rigor and societal impact may not be reflected by the publication counts and the cites they receive.

摘要

在这项研究中，使用最流行的文献计量评估方法，根据研究期刊出版物对世界各地的纺织学校进行了比较分析。该研究对2014年至2019年纺织、服装、时尚和服装相关专业研究机构近年来的文献计量评价进行了基准评估。基于Web of Science ^TM，2014年至2019年共发表研究论文124,362篇（不包括会议论文）。发现与纺织品或纤维有关。在全球 1000 多所纺织学校中，来自 18 个国家或地区的 31 所学校被确定为 Web of Science ^{TM 中}列出的纺织或纤维相关出版物的前 100 名机构之一. 这31所纺织学校根据生产力和引文影响排名，包括出版物总数、每位教职工的出版物、h指数、总被引次数、平均被引次数和每位教职工的被引次数。虽然这些文献计量方法提供了一些关于世界纺织学校研究活动趋势和影响的见解，但应谨慎解释，因为在原创性、科学严谨性和社会影响方面的研究贡献质量可能无法通过出版物数量和他们收到的引用。
