“…Mogući je razlog i važnost uloge knjiga kao komunikacijskog medija u većini polja i disciplina društvenih, a pogotovo humanističkih znanosti. Kao dokaz da je postojao i postoji interes za istraživanje časopisa iz različitih polja društvenih znanosti, navest ćemo samo neka od istraživanja: Dukić, 1990;Puljiz i Štambuk, 1992;Petak, Puljiz i Štambuk, 2002;Vojnić, 2005;Švenda Radeljak, 2006;Jokić i Zauder, 2013;Pricopie, 2013;Nambiar, 2013;Bullis i Irving, 2013. U nekim dinamičnijim poljima društvenih znanosti časopis ima dominantniju ulogu, pa se više i istražuje, na primjer u ekonomiji i psihologiji (Azar, 2014;Haley, 2014).…”

U radu se analizira časopis Migracijske i etničke teme tijekom tri desetljeća njegova izlaženja. Uzorak za istraživanje činili su svi brojevi časopisa od 1985. do 2013. s ukupno 497 radova, na kojima je provedena bibliometrijska analiza. Analizirani radovi svrstani su u kategorije izvorni znanstveni rad, prethodno priopćenje, pregledni rad te konferencijski i stručni rad. Sastavnice bibliografskih opisa pogodne za provedbu bibliometrijske analize koje smo uzeli u obzir bile su vrsta rada, godina, godište/ broj, autor, broj autora, institucija, broj stranica rada i jezik rada. Posebna pozornost u istraživanju usmjerena je na analizu citiranih referenci u radovima. Tom citatnom analizom utvrđeni su podaci o vrsti citiranih publikacija, količini citirane publikacije, autoru, godini objave citirane publikacije, nazivu časopisa ako je posrijedi bio članak te o tome je li riječ o domaćoj ili stranoj publikaciji. Analiza je provedena na temelju uzimanja uzoraka iz tri vrste citiranih publikacija: knjiga, zbornika i časopisa. Da bi se dobio uvid u recepciju rezultata istraživanja objavljenih u časopisu Migracijske i etničke teme, provedena je analiza posredne citiranosti preko časopisa indeksiranih u bazama Web of Science i Scopus. Rezultati dobiveni ovim istraživanjem mogli bi poslužiti kao smjernice razvoja časopisa. KLJUČNE RIJEČI: Migracijske i etničke teme, bibliometrijska analiza, citatna analiza, znanstveni časopis, Hrvatska 1. UVOD Znanstveni časopis, ne samo u prirodnim, biomedicinskim i tehničkim znanostima nego sve više i u društvenim, pa i humanističkim, osnova je znanstvene komunikacije. U prilog toj tvrdnji ide činjenica da primjerice

The extreme case of terrorism: a scientometric analysis

How has the terrorism affected the research process and findings? The author tries to answer to this question through an exploratory analysis of the impact of these tragic events on the research outputs of scientists, institutions and countries. In particular, this report provides a wide range of scientometric data related to terrorism studies over the world during the two decades from 1991 to 2011. After the September 11, 2001 events (9/ 11) in the United States, the concerned academicians have responded in a way that they started producing an increasing number of research publications, as if they were under the influence of some kind of a driving force, stimulating the overall academic production linked to this tragic event. However, after this trend has reached its peak in 2002, that driving force has visibly weakened, and since the mid 2000's, the number of research publication in the field of terrorism studies has steadily decreased. Nonetheless, the number of terrorist events per year, along with the property damage and fatality rate, has continuously increased over the observed lapse of time. Using these results as a backdrop, in this paper is argued that the field of terrorism research should be explored from a critical and multi-cultural perspective, and that all scientific researchers should remain objective, for scientific research is to be independent from political systems, its contingent events in any form, and the transitory historical circumstances.

Worldwide terrorist activities continue to pose a significant threat to global security and stability. The unpredictable nature of these acts necessitates advanced analytical approaches to enhance prevention and response strategies. This study examines undetectable word extensions across multiple datasets, using terrorism‐related datasets as a case study. This research aims to overcome constraints in current predictive models associated with terrorist attack prediction. While many studies have used the GTD for predicting global terrorist attacks, this study expands beyond GTD by evaluating a corpus of terrorism incidents to enhance predictive analysis through lexical usage. The study employs several machine learning algorithms including Decision Tree (DT), Bootstrap Aggregating (BA), Random Forest (RF), Extra Trees (ET) and XGBoost (XG) algorithms for evaluation. Our approach integrates multiple datasets to reduce dependence on GTD alone. Findings indicate that RF performs best on the GTD database, with 90.20% accuracy in predicting worldwide terrorist attacks. DT achieves 90.40% accuracy when applied to the TF–IDF dataset. XG demonstrates superior performance across various aggregation settings and feature sets, achieving 95.77% accuracy in forecasting worldwide terrorist acts. XG's consistent and effective performance across various contexts highlights its versatility. Its high adaptability and robust performance position it as the preferred algorithm for conducting predictive research on global terrorist acts using the available datasets. Our research findings underscore the importance of incorporating diverse datasets to enhance understanding of terrorist activities and improve predictive capabilities.
