“…Table 2 shows publication details including: a) the author, b) journal name, c) journal citations core, d) number of citations, and e) normalized citation of the selected articles. The normalized citation indicator offers an expression of the average number of citations of the publications, normalized for field, publication year, and document type (Aksnes, Langfeldt, & Wouters, 2019;Mingers & Kaymaz, 2019;Zitt, Ramanana-Rahary, & Bassecoulard, 2005).…”

The amount of empirical research conducted in the area of differentiated instruction (DI) is overwhelming, necessitating this bibliometric analysis in order to produce an overview of literature on the topic. The objective of this study is to identify the characteristics of the most-cited educational research published on the topic of DI using science mapping and multi-dimensional bibliometric analysis methods. To answer the research questions which were related to: i) publication, ii) authorship, iii) authors' keywords, and iv) journals, a total of 100 articles published between 1990 and 2018, generated from SCOPUS, were analysed. The results showed that the most-cited articles and the number of publications were highest between 1995 and 2011. With a total of 545 citations "A Time for Telling", published in the Journal of Cognition and Instruction (1998), was the most cited. The most significant keywords were: a) differentiated instruction, b) differentiation, c) curriculum, d) mathematics, and e) reading. The analysis showed that there were 283 authors who contributed to the 100 articles, and amongst them Carol McDonald Connor was the greatest contributor. It was also revealed that the great majority of the most-cited publications were from Q1-ranked journals. These findings inform scholarly efforts adopted in developing a diverse knowledge base in the field. The findings are important to scholars as they provide an overview of the progress of research on the topic of DI.

“…From the publisher's perspective, books also allow addressing assessment initiatives nationally and internationally (Giménez-Toledo; Mañana-Rodríguez; Tejada-Artigas, 2015), understanding online marketing strategies to reach new audiences through social media (Mas-Bleda; Makita; Mrva-Montoya; Thelwall, 2022), and targeting the academic impact of books by tracking their citations performance on Google Scholar (Mingers;Kaymaz, 2019) or Book Citation Index (Torres-Salinas; Robinson-García; Campanario; López-Cózar, 2014; Torres-Salinas; Robinson-García; Jiménez-Contreras; López-Cózar, 2012).…”

Este artículo aporta al estudio bibliométrico de la producción académica de libros mostrando la configuración de redes de coautorías en el caso de una editorial universitaria. Recurre a atributos del análisis de redes sociales asociados a las métricas de integridad y centralidad para, por un lado, caracterizar el nivel de interacción de la red, y por el otro, identificar a los autores que juegan un rol importante al interior de ella. Para lograr esto, se construyó una base de datos con 989 autores distribuidos en 188 libros publicados entre 2007 y 2021 por la Editorial Universidad Icesi, y se estructuró una red de 9656 vínculos entre coautores. Susprincipales resultados son de dos tipos: metodológicos que buscan presentar este estudio como modelo replicable respecto a la producción de libros de otras editoriales; y otros para comprender este caso de estudio en particular.

Number of references: a large-scale study of interval ratios

The paper presents a large-scale study (covering 26,998,764 items) of the development in the number of references over time in three document types (articles; reviews; notes) from seven fields (Arts and Humanities; Social Sciences; Computer Science; Mathematics; Engineering; Medicine; Physics and Astronomy). Using interval ratios instead of average numbers, the paper makes it possible to follow the development, and to locate the main causes of growth in the number of references over time. The results show significant differences between fields and document types. The number of references in journal articles and reviews are growing in all fields (except for the reviews in Arts and Humanities that remain stable over time), but at different pace; The number of references in notes are growing in some fields (again at different pace) and are stable in others. The observed growth is primarily caused by a drop in short reference lists and a corresponding increase in a bit longer and medium size reference lists. Long and very long reference lists remain much more stable in shares over time, and does therefore not contribute much to the observed growth. The results underline the importance of normalizing citation data, and for taking citation inflation into account when conducting citation analyses expanding different fields, document types, and longer time-periods.
