Purpose – This paper aims to the identification of journal articles that probably report on interdisciplinary research at Wageningen University & Research (WUR). Design/methodology/approach – For identification of interdisciplinary research, an analysis is performed on journals from which articles have been cited in articles (co-)authored by WUR staff. The journals with cited articles are inventoried from the reference lists of the WUR articles. For each WUR article, a mean dissimilarity is calculated between the journal in which it has been published and the journals inventoried from the reference lists. Dissimilarities are derived from a large matrix with similarity values between journals, calculated from co-occurrence of these journals in the WUR articles’ reference lists. Findings – For 21,191 WUR articles published between 2006 and 2015 in 2,535 journals mean dissimilarities have been calculated. The analysis shows that WUR articles with high mean dissimilarities often are published in multidisciplinary journals. Also, WUR articles with high mean dissimilarities are found in non-multidisciplinary (research field-specific) journals. For these articles (with high mean dissimilarities), this paper shows that citations are often made to more various research fields than for articles with lower mean dissimilarities. Originality/value – Identification of articles reporting on interdisciplinary research may be important to WUR policy for strategic purposes or for the evaluation of researchers or groups. Also, this analysis enables to identify journals with high mean dissimilarities (due to WUR articles citing more various research fields). Identification of these journals with a more interdisciplinary scope can be important for collection management by the library

根据同被引用的期刊确定跨学科研究

目的–本文旨在识别可能报告瓦赫宁根大学与研究(WUR)跨学科研究的期刊文章。设计/方法/方法–为了识别跨学科研究,对期刊进行了分析,并在其中引用了WUR工作人员(共同)撰写的文章中的文章。带有引用文章的期刊从WUR文章的参考清单中进行清点。对于每篇WUR文章,都会计算发表该文章的期刊与从参考文献清单中列出的期刊之间的平均差异。差异来自于大型期刊,期刊之间具有相似性值,该相似性值是根据WUR文章参考列表中这些期刊的同时出现而得出的。调查结果–对于21,2006年至2015年期间,在2535种期刊上发表了191篇WUR文章,这表明已计算出相异之处。分析表明,具有较高平均差异的WUR文章经常在多学科期刊上发表。同样,在非多学科(针对特定研究领域)的期刊中也发现了WUR文章具有较高的平均差异。对于这些文章(均值差异较大),本文表明,与那些均值相差较低的文章相比,通常对更多的研究领域进行了引用。原创性/价值–识别报告跨学科研究的文章对于WUR出于战略目的或评估研究人员或团体的政策可能很重要。而且,这种分析能够识别出具有高度均值差异的期刊(由于WUR文章引用了更多的研究领域)。
