The study investigates the attitudes and practices of early career researchers (ECRs) in regard to citation-based metrics and altmetrics, providing the findings in the light of what might be expected of the millennial generation and in the context of what we already know about researchers in today's 'culture of counting' governed scholarly world.…

The "Journal of Research in Music Education" ("JRME") is the longest running serial dedicated to music education research, and its articles are widely considered exemplars in the field worldwide. This is a bibliometric study of the sources cited in articles published in the "JRME" from its inception in 1953 to 2015.…

Recent articles by the editorial board of "The Analysis of Verbal Behavior" (TAVB) include calls for greater integration, collaboration, and inclusion. In so doing, it may be helpful to consider TAVB's current reach. Previously, Petursdottir, Peterson, and Peters ("The Analysis of Verbal Behavior," "25," 109-121,…

The use of bibliometric indicators would simplify research assessments. The 2014 Research Excellence Framework (REF) is a peer review assessment of UK universities, whose results can be taken as benchmarks for bibliometric indicators. In this study, we use the REF results to investigate whether the e[subscript p] index and a top percentile of most…

Evaluating open and distance learning journals will be helpful to the discipline and the global community at large, as research evaluation metrics are useful for measuring research productivity and its impact within the global community. The study adopted a citation analysis, using Harzel Publish or Perish software, to extract data from Google…

Professional identity is believed to foster self-confidence and resilience in health care professionals. While literature exists describing professional identity in medicine, the relevance of this evidence to rehabilitation professionals (occupational therapy (OT), physical therapy (PT) and speech-language pathology (S-LP)) is limited due to…

"International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education" (IJATE) is one of the educational journals that is indexed in major worldwide databases such as Web of Science (WoS) and ERIC. This study presents the bibliometric characteristics of articles published in IJATE between 2014 and 2021 through the bibliometric analyses. Harzing's…

Compare is a leading journal in the comparative and international education research field. To assess this journal's productivity and influence, we conducted a bibliometric analysis of 428 papers published in Compare between 2010 and 2019. The findings show that in the past decade, Compare experienced significant growth in the number of…

In higher education, international research collaboration functions as a visible mechanism of cooperation and competition, serving as a proxy for quality and academic excellence. Open universities use revolutionary education models but are not often associated with quality or academic excellence. To investigate the impact of international research…

The evaluation of research to allocate government funding to universities is now common across the globe. "The Research Excellence Framework," introduced in the UK in 2014, marked a major change by extending assessment beyond the 'quality' of published research to include its real-world 'impact'. Impact submissions were a key determinant…

Bibliometric analysis, an approach introduced by the library and information sciences, attempts to unravel the relationships between a large number of scientific literature by using quantitative methods. "Economics of Education Review" was founded in 1981 to meet the needs of a growing number of research in the economics of education.…

This study uses bibliometric techniques to explore the international knowledge base on climate change education (CCE), which considers education as crucial for addressing the climate emergency through fostering climate-literate citizens. Analyzing two decades of scientific literature on CCE, we identify evolving considerations, foci, trends, and…

The dramatic increase in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education studies has resulted in more authors promoting the use of Arduino in STEM education. Although there are educational research studies utilizing bibliometric procedures for the exploration of Arduino and STEM separately, there is a further need for research…

This study presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of Artificial Intelligence (AI) research for Multimedia in Education from 2020 to 2024. Using the Dimensions AI database, VOSviewer software and Scimago Graphica, we examined 45 publications to identify key trends, influential contributors, and emerging directions in this rapidly evolving…

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that applied researchers need methodologists, as evidenced by citation records. Results include (a) that methodologists are authors on more than one half of the top-cited recent empirical articles in selected journals, (b) that a bibliometric analysis of educational research articles recorded in the…
