背景。西班牙是最近将护理研究完全纳入大学领域的少数欧洲国家之一。文献计量研究对于巩固护理研究可能有很大帮助。 研究目的。本文的目的是描述西班牙护理研究论文中的参考书目及其十年来的演变。该方法包括对 622 篇研究论文（原始论文和评论论文）样本（整群抽样）进行回顾性文献计量研究，这些论文包含在西班牙护理期刊 Enfermeria Cientifica、Revista ROL de Enfermeria、Enfermeria Clinica 和 Enfermeria Integral 中，并于 1985 年至 1994 年发表。选择《护理研究》杂志用于定性比较目的。使用了一系列经典的文献计量索引。结果。每篇论文的参考文献平均值为 10.64 +/- 10.42；随着时间的推移，这种情况有所增加（P < 0.001）。综述论文参考文献较多（P < 0.001）。价格指数（过去 5 年发表的参考文献的百分比）为 44%，孤立性（与文章在同一国家/地区发表的参考文献的百分比）为 55%。对期刊的引用占主导地位（58.6%），对西班牙护理期刊的引用呈增长趋势，尽管它们仍然很少（对期刊的引用占 18.1%）。西班牙语是大多数参考文献的语言（60.3%），第二语言是英语（36.1%）。结论。西班牙护理研究论文中的参考书目很少而且不是很具体：这种情况在护理研究以及其他国家和国际科学领域的出版物中都会发生。然而，在分析期间，参考文献（包括护理期刊的参考文献）呈增加趋势。参考文献的年代使西班牙护理处于“硬”科学和人文学科之间的中间位置。而且，根据所使用的文献类型，我们发现它介于实验科学和自然科学、技术和社会科学之间。近年来，英文参考文献略有增加。
Background. Spain is one of the few European countries to have recently totally incorporated the study of nursing into the university sector. Bibliometric studies may be of a great help for the consolidation of nursing research.Aim of the study. The aim of this paper is to describe bibliographic references in Spanish nursing research papers and their evolution over a decade.Method. The method consists of a retrospective bibliometric study of a sample (cluster sampling) of 622 research papers (original papers and review papers), which were contained in the Spanish nursing journals Enfermeria Cientifica, Revista ROL de Enfermeria, Enfermeria Clinica and Enfermeria Integral, and published from 1985 to 1994. The journal Nursing Research was selected for qualitative comparative purposes. A series of classic bibliometric indexes were used.Results. The mean of references per paper is 10.64 +/- 10.42; this increased over time (P < 0.001). Review papers have more references (P < 0.001). Price index (percentage of references published during the last 5 years) is 44% and the Insularity (percentage of references published in same country as the article) is 55%. References to journals predominate (58.6%), with a growing tendency for references to Spanish nursing journals, although they are still scarce (18.1% of the references to journals). Spanish is the language of most of the references (60.3%), the second language being English (36.1%).Conclusions. Bibliographic references in Spanish nursing research papers are scarce and not very specific: this happens both in regard to Nursing Research and to publications in other national and international science areas. However, there is an increasing tendency of references (including references to nursing journals) in the period analysed. The age of the references places Spanish nursing in ail intermediate position between the 'hard' sciences and the humanities; and, according to the type of documentation used, we find it halfway between experimental and natural sciences, and technologies and social sciences. There has been a slight increase in references in English in recent years.
