PLOS ONE(原PLOS ONE)是由美国公共科学图书馆出版的国际开放获取在线期刊。该期刊涵盖了所有科学和医学类别,从2007年到2011年发表了多达28852篇论文。PLOS ONE将用于展示关于有效性,实用性和信息价值的期刊度量和信息度量方法的范围。为了尽可能具体地评估这些数据并解决所有相关因素,评估分为五个维度,每个维度都涉及不同的指标。这五个维度分别是期刊产出、期刊内容、期刊感知、期刊引用和期刊管理。在分析过程中指出了每一个问题,并给出了所有有意义的评价结果。结果表明,PLOS ONE经历了巨大的发展。由于其相对较低的31%的拒绝率,其对众多不同研究领域的开放性,一个国际大型同行评议社区,以及其开放获取,与印刷期刊或其他在线期刊相比,可以发表多个文档。评估结果表明,应该从多个角度对《公共科学图书馆·综合》进行评估,因为除了影响因子之外,还有各种各样的指标可以用来全面评估期刊的地位以及它的声望和影响力。
PLOS ONE (formerly PLoS ONE) is an international open access online journal published by the Public Library of Science. The periodical covers all science and medicine categories and has published as many as 28,852 documents from 2007 to 2011. PLOS ONE will be used to show the range of journal metrics and informetric methods regarding validity, practicability and informative value. To assess this data as specifically as possible and to address all relevant factors, the evaluation is split into five dimensions, each of which involves distinct metrics. The five dimensions are journal output, journal content, journal perception, journal citations and journal management. Each of them is pointed out in the process of the analyses, and all significant evaluation results are presented. The results show that PLOS ONE has experienced an enormous development. Because of a relatively low rejection rate of 31%, its openness towards a multitude of different research areas, an internationally large peer review community, and its open access, a plurality of documents can be published in comparison with a print-journal or other online periodicals. The results of the evaluation indicate that PLOS ONE should be assessed from numerous perspectives because there are a variety of indicators beyond the impact factor that can be made use of in order to evaluate exhaustively the standing of the journal as well as its prestige and impact.
