虽然学术交流中的利益相关者普遍同意数据引用的重要性，但对于这些引用应该放在出版物中的哪里，特别是当出版物引用原始数据时，并没有达成共识。最近，CrossRef和数字策展中心（DCC）建议将原始数据引用出现在文章引用的作品部分作为最佳实践。在某些领域，例如生命科学，这与仅在文章主体内（文本内）列出数据标识符的常见做法形成了对比。我们询问了在CrossRef和DCC的指导下，数据引用实践是否发生了变化。我们研究了2011年至2014年与Dryad数字资源库中原始数据相关的1125篇文章的数据引用实践。不引用原始数据的文章比例逐年下降，从2011年的31%降至2014年的15%。在文本中包含数据标识符的文章比例从69%增长到83%，而在作品引用部分引用数据的文章比例从5%增长到8%。如果这一比例继续以每年19-20%的速度增长，那么到2030年，被引作品部分被数据引用的文章比例将不会超过90%。
While stakeholders in scholarly communication generally agree on the importance of data citation, there is not consensus on where those citations should be placed within the publication – particularly when the publication is citing original data. Recently, CrossRef and the Digital Curation Center (DCC) have recommended as a best practice that original data citations appear in the works cited sections of the article. In some fields, such as the life sciences, this contrasts with the common practice of only listing data identifier(s) within the article body (intratextually). We inquired whether data citation practice has been changing in light of the guidance from CrossRef and the DCC. We examined data citation practices from 2011 to 2014 in a corpus of 1,125 articles associated with original data in the Dryad Digital Repository. The percentage of articles that include no reference to the original data has declined each year, from 31% in 2011 to 15% in 2014. The percentage of articles that include data identifiers intratextually has grown from 69% to 83%, while the percentage that cite data in the works cited section has grown from 5% to 8%. If the proportions continue to grow at the current rate of 19-20% annually, the proportion of articles with data citations in the works cited section will not exceed 90% until 2030.
