Abstract

A growing body of research has recently been devoted to quantifying research productivity both on the part of individuals, as well as the prestige that individual productivity levels bring to departments. Only recently has research begun to examine what journals criminologists are most likely to cite in their scholarly research. In this study, we rank the most influential journals cited in Criminology for the years 1969–1973, 1989–1993, and 2009–2013. Our analyses suggest Criminology quickly became the most cited journal, followed by JRCD and Justice Quarterly. Furthermore, the influence of sociological journals has remained strong, but has clearly diminished over time.

摘要

最近越来越多的研究致力于量化个人的研究生产力，以及个人生产力水平给部门带来的声望。直到最近，才开始研究犯罪学家在学术研究中最有可能引用的期刊。在这项研究中，我们对 1969-1973 年、1989-1993 年和 2009-2013 年被犯罪学引用的最具影响力的期刊进行了排名。我们的分析表明，犯罪学迅速成为被引用次数最多的期刊，其次是JRCD和司法季刊。此外，社会学期刊的影响力仍然很强，但随着时间的推移明显减弱。
