“…Thus, actual papers are not always taken into account. Newer methods of the upcoming discipline of informetrics (Bar-Ilan 2008), especially the usage of real-time bibliometric data of the Internet, might help to better encompass even the latest developments in scientific progress. The applied scheme only counts co-citations and does not value them: it is thus not differentiated whether an article is cited in a positive or negative sense.…”

Conjoint analysis (CA) is one of the most important methods for preference elicitation. In this paper we investigate the intellectual structure within the conjoint analytical research community. Analyses based on single papers provide a method-based overview of streams of conjoint research. By using novel bibliometric techniques in this field we complement findings of existing reviews. We use co-citation and factor analysis of the most cited articles in SSCI to identify the most important articles and research streams. Seven research streams are revealed which are visualized by means of multidimensional scaling. Tables and graphics reveal the disciplinary affiliations of contributors to CA, the special structure within the classes as well as links between them.

“…Therefore, frequently cited authors are likely to have exerted a greater influence on the discipline than those less frequently cited (Garfield 1979). This basic idea, whilst variously refined (Bar-Ilan 2008), still builds the basis for analyses on the impact of authors, institutions or journals.…”

“…Informetrics, a term first proposed by Nacke [1], was defined by Tague-Sutcliffe [2] Since then this definition has been accepted and its use supported by many workers in the field, (so-called informetricians) such as Wilson [3], Ingwersen and Björneborn [4], Bar-Ilan [5] and Rousseau [6]. Ingwersen and Björneborn [4] even explicitly mention that studying activities in chat rooms in cyberspace belongs to the field of informetrics.…”

Background information is provided about the Web 2.0 related term altmetrics. This term is placed in the context of the broader field of informetrics. The term influmetrics is proposed as a better term for altmetrics. The importance of considering research products and not just scientific publications is highlighted. Issues related to peer review and making funding decisions within a multi-metric approach are discussed and brought in relation with the new metrics field.

“…This brief communication uses the methods of bibliometrics [2,3] to provide an overview of the articles that have appeared in JCAMD and, more importantly, of JCAMD's scientific impact as denoted by the citations to it from the broader scientific literature. Such bibliometric studies of journals have been reported in very many disciplines [4] including, recently, computer-aided drug discovery [5][6][7].…”
