    "Zur Kurzmitteilung "Latest enhancements in Scopus: ... h-Index incorporated in Scopus" in den letzten Online-Mitteilungen (Online-Mitteilungen 92, S.31) ist zu korrigieren, dass der h-Index sehr wohl bereits im Web of Science enthalten ist. Allerdings findet man/frau diese Information nicht in der "cited ref search", sondern neben der Trefferliste einer Quick Search, General Search oder einer Suche über den Author Finder in der rechten Navigationsleiste unter dem Titel "Citation Report". Der "Citation Report" bietet für die in der jeweiligen Trefferliste angezeigten Arbeiten: - Die Gesamtzahl der Zitierungen aller Arbeiten in der Trefferliste - Die mittlere Zitationshäufigkeit dieser Arbeiten - Die Anzahl der Zitierungen der einzelnen Arbeiten, aufgeschlüsselt nach Publikationsjahr der zitierenden Arbeiten - Die mittlere Zitationshäufigkeit dieser Arbeiten pro Jahr - Den h-Index (ein h-Index von x sagt aus, dass x Arbeiten der Trefferliste mehr als x-mal zitiert wurden; er ist gegenüber sehr hohen Zitierungen einzelner Arbeiten unempfindlicher als die mittlere Zitationshäufigkeit)."

    Abstract
    This study is a follow-up to a published Correspondence Factorial Analysis (CFA) of a dataset of over 6 million bibliometric entries (Doré et al. JASIS, 47(8), 588-602,1996), which compared the publication output patterns of 48 countries in 18 disciplines over a 12-year period (1981-1992). It analyzes by methods suitable for investigating short time series how these output patterns evolved over the 12-year span. Three types of approach are described. (1) the chi**2 distances of the publication output patterns from the center of gravity of the multidimensional system-which represents an average world pattern-were calculated for each country and for each year. We noted whether the patterns moved toward or away from the center with time; (2) individual annual output patterns were introduced as supplementary variables into an existing global overview covering the whole time-span [CFA map of (countries x disciplines)]. We observed how these patterns moved about within the map year by year; (3) the matrix (disciplines x time) was analyzed by CFA to derive time trends for each country. CFA revealed the "inner clocks" governing publication trends. The time scale that best fitted the data was not a linear but an elastic scale. Although different countries laid emphasis on publication in different disciplines, the overall tendency was toward greater uniformity in publication patterns with time

    Abstract
    Unter kognitiver Mobilität verstehe ich im folgenden nicht die Mobilität von Information, sondern die Bewegung des Denkens, und zwar hier des wissenschaftlichen Denkens. Wissenschaftliches Denken vollzieht sich disziplinär sowie interdisziplinär, im informationellen Austausch von Disziplinen und Forschungsgebieten. Dieser Austausch unterliegt, wie die Wissenschaftsgeschichte lehrt, einer Entwicklungsdynamik, die als Abfolge von Wanderungen oder Übergängen zwischen Forschungsgebieten in folgendem Sinn verständen werden kann. Beschäftigt sich ein Forscher A zum Zeitpunkt t1 mit Forschungsgebiet X und zum Zeitpunkt t2 als nächstes mit Forschungsgebiet Y, so liegt ein Übergang von X nach Y vor. Gibt es für diese Art von Übergängen charakteristische Eigenschaften oder Regularitäten.> Ein wichtiges Merkmal solcher Übergänge ist der Grad der Verwandtschaft, der kognitiven Affinität zwischen Ausgangs- und Zielgebiet der Migration. Am Beispiel der rund 150.000 Migrationen zwischen den mathematischen Subdisziplinen, wie sie sich in den Zeitschriftenartikel-Nachweisen der Mathematical Reviews von 1959 bis 1975 widerspiegeln, wurde das Verhältnis von kognitiver Mobilität und Affinität empirisch systematisch untersucht. Es bestätigte sich George K. Zipfs "Principle of Least Effort". Zählreiche Mechanismen und Faustregeln der Wissensorganisation dürften der Wirksamkeit dieses Prinzips zugrundeliegen.

    Abstract
    A problem, raised by Wallace (JASIS, 37,136-145,1986), on the relation between the journal's median citation age and its number of articles is studied. Leaving open the problem as such, we give a statistical explanation of this relationship, when replacing "median" by "mean" in Wallace's problem. The cloud of points, found by Wallace, is explained in this sense that the points are scattered over the area in first quadrant, limited by a curve of the form y=1 + E/x**2 where E is a constant. This curve is obtained by using the Central Limit Theorem in statistics and, hence, has no intrinsic informetric foundation. The article closes with some reflections on explanations of regularities in informetrics, based on statistical, probabilistic or informetric results, or on a combination thereof

    Abstract
    This study explores the usefulness of bibliometric analyses to detect trends in the research profile of a therapeutic drug, for which Aspirin was selected. A total of 22,144 documents dealing with Aspirin and published in journals covered by MEDLINE during the years 19652001 are studied. The research profile of Aspirin over the 37-year period is analyzed through Aspirin subheadings and McSH indexing terms. Half of the documents had Aspirin as a major indexing term, being the main aspects studied therapeutic uses (28% of the documents), pharmacodynamics (26%), adverse effects (18%), and administration and dosage (10%). A frequency data table crossing indexing terms x years is examined by correspondence analysis to obtain time trends, which are shown graphically in a map. Four time periods with a different distribution of indexing terms are identified through cluster analysis. The indexing term profile of every period is obtained by comparison of the distribution of indexing terms of each cluster with that of the whole period by means of the Chi-2 test. The research profile of the drug tends to change faster with time. The most relevant finding is the expanding therapeutic Profile of Aspirin over the period. The main advantages and limitations of the methodology are pointed out.

    Abstract
    Based on Gestalt theory, the author assumes the existence of a field-force equilibrium to explain how, according to the conciseness principle, mathematically precise gestalts could exist in coauthorship networks. A simple mathematical function is developed for the description of these gestalts which can encompass complementary tendencies (as in the principle of Yin and Yang) in their dynamic interplay and, thus, can reflect the change in gestalts. For example, "Birds of a feather flock together" and "Opposites attract" are explained as complementary tendencies. The data are obtained by SCI. In analyzing the coauthorship networks, coauthorship relations Z between scientists (third dimension) are recorded from the point of view of every scientist with productivity X (first dimension) to all the other scientists with productivity Y (second dimension). According to the conciseness principle, three-dimensional well-ordered gestalts from different science disciplines are presented. The results of the study have confirmed Metzger's conjectures that the conciseness principle also has validity for social systems, and is valid even with the same conciseness as in the psychology of perception. It is possible that the presented mathematical function has assumed a more general character and, in consequence, is also more likely applicable to the description of citation networks or the spreading of information.

    Abstract
    Collaboration is a major research policy objective, but does it deliver higher quality research? This study uses citation analysis to examine the Web of Science (WoS) Information Science & Library Science subject category (IS&LS) to ascertain whether, in general, more highly cited articles are more highly collaborative than other articles. It consists of two investigations. The first investigation is a longitudinal comparison of the degree and proportion of collaboration in five strata of citation; it found that collaboration in the highest four citation strata (all in the most highly cited 22%) increased in unison over time, whereas collaboration in the lowest citation strata (un-cited articles) remained low and stable. Given that over 40% of the articles were un-cited, it seems important to take into account the differences found between un-cited articles and relatively highly cited articles when investigating collaboration in IS&LS. The second investigation compares collaboration for 35 influential information scientists; it found that their more highly cited articles on average were not more highly collaborative than their less highly cited articles. In summary, although collaborative research is conducive to high citation in general, collaboration has apparently not tended to be essential to the success of current and former elite information scientists.
