Abstract The study aims are to conduct a systematic quantitative analysis of Open Access (OA) Instruments and Initiatives, justify and develop the methodology for calculating the index of countries' involvement in the Open Access movement. The authors identified all the significant OA-Instruments and OA-Initiatives, which were counted on the basis of the records in their OA-registers. Consolidation of records in these registers, according to literature data from the moment of their launch, made it possible to identify important patterns and features of the evolution of the OA-movement. The proposed methodology when applied to all countries of the world as of 2017 and 2019 allowed the authors to rank and classify them according to a degree of their involvement in the OA-movement. The article affirms that the proposed methodology in the context of regular comparative analysis of the benchmarking tables with setting the target integral indicators for the lagging countries is very convenient for the development of Global or Regional OA-Strategies. So the authors define the concept of the International or Regional OA-movement Scoreboard, underlying the development of these strategies.

开放获取科学知识的国际运动：国家参与的定量分析

摘要 本研究旨在对开放获取 (OA) 工具和倡议进行系统的定量分析，证明和开发用于计算国家参与开放获取运动指数的方法。作者确定了所有重要的 OA-Instruments 和 OA-Initiatives，它们是根据其 OA 登记册中的记录进行计数的。根据从发布之日起的文献数据，将这些登记册中的记录合并起来，可以确定 OA 运动演变的重要模式和特征。所提议的方法适用于截至 2017 年和 2019 年的世界所有国家，允许作者根据他们参与 OA 运动的程度对它们进行排名和分类。文章确认，在对基准表进行定期比较分析并为落后国家设定目标综合指标的背景下，所提议的方法非常便于制定全球或区域开放获取战略。因此，作者定义了国际或区域 OA 运动记分牌的概念，这是这些战略发展的基础。
