| What is SCI, SSCI, CSSCI |
At present, in the international scientific community, how to correctly evaluate the results of basic scientific research has attracted more and more extensive attention. The number of scientific and technological papers included in SCI and SSCI is regarded as an important evaluation index to measure a country's basic scientific research level, scientific and technological strength and the level of scientific and technological papers. So, what exactly is SCI and SSCI?
1 SCI
SCI is "Science Citation Index" (Science Citation Index). It can evaluate the academic value of the article from the perspective of evaluating the academic value of the article, and can also quickly and easily set up a reference network of research topics. SCI was founded in 1961. After more than 40 years of development and improvement, it has developed from a single printing type at the beginning to a powerful electronic, An integrated and networked large-scale multidisciplinary and comprehensive retrieval system.
SCI is divided into SCI and SCI-E according to the number of source journals. SCI refers to more than 3,500 source journals in SCI print and SCI CD-ROM (SCI Compact Disc Edition, referred to as SCI CDE), and SCI-E (SCI Expanded) is an expanded library of SCI, which includes more than 5,600 source journals, which can be accessed through SCI. Search online or on the Internet. SCI covers more than 100 disciplines, mainly involving agricultural, biological and environmental sciences; engineering technology and applied sciences; medicine and life sciences; physics and chemistry; and behavioral sciences.
2 SSCI
SSCI stands for Social Sciences Citation Index (Social Sciences Citation Index), which is a companion of SCI and is also created by the American Institute for Scientific Information. Large search tool. In 1999, SSCI included 1,809 of the world's most important social science journals, covering 55 fields including anthropology, law, economics, history, geography, and psychology. The types of documents included include research papers, book reviews, symposiums, editorials, autobiographies, letters, etc. Selectively Covered journals are more than 1,300.
3 CSSCI
The scientific citation index is to reveal the internal connection between scientific documents from the citation relationship between the documents. Through the statistics and analysis of citations, we can reveal the basic trend of disciplinary research and development from an important aspect, evaluate the quality of scientific research, and provide first-hand information for the development and research of humanities and social sciences . The "Chinese Social Science Citation Index" (CSSCI) successfully developed by Nanjing University is a key research project of the State and the Ministry of Education. In 2000, the project completed the construction of the CSSCI citation database, and successively developed the online and CD-ROM versions of the CSSCI database. This achievement fills the blank of my country's social science citation index and has reached the domestic leading level.
At present, the Ministry of Education has taken CSSCI data as an important assessment indicator in the evaluation of institutions and bases in colleges and universities across the country, achievement awards, project establishment, and personnel training. The CSSCI database has been purchased and used by more than 100 units such as Peking University, Tsinghua University, Renmin University of China, Wuhan University, Jilin University, Shandong University, Nanjing University, etc., and CSSCI is used as a region, institution, academic, discipline, title, project, achievement important basis for evaluation and review.
As an important tool for statistical query and evaluation of major social science documents in my country, CSSCI provides a variety of information query and retrieval methods, which can provide social science researchers with cutting-edge information and historical trajectories of domestic social science research; Provide various types of statistical analysis data such as regions, institutions, disciplines, scholars, etc., so as to provide scientific and reasonable decision-making references for the formulation of scientific research development plans and scientific research policies. At present, the CSSCI database of Nanjing University has provided services to the society. The service items include online package library (package library organization can use CSSCI database on any computer within the limited IP address range and any time period), online query (non-package library users) Query the CSSCI database through the Internet); entrusted query (the user entrusts Nanjing University to query the CSSCI database on its behalf, and issue a query report), mobile phone query (China Mobile mobile phone users can query the CSSCI database by sending SMS messages), for details, please log in to Nanjing University China Social Sciences Research Evaluation Center Network.
