261045 Werkstatt Bibliometrie (Bibliometrics Lab) (S) (SoSe 2016)

Contents, comment

Modern scientific literature databases provide a good basis for multiple methods of publication and citation statistics. Such bibliometric methods can be used as an instrument for science studies, e.g. to study the obsolescence of scientific knowledge or to monitor the emergence of new scientific specialties. Bibliometrics is also used for the evaluation of research performance - not only for the production of more or less questionable rankings, but also directly for controlling the distribution of ressources within the science system.

Participants in the bibliometrics lab will be envolved in practical exercises with major databases and gain experience with bibliometric methods, instruments and indicators.

Moderne wissenschaftlichen Literaturdatenbanken bieten eine gute Grundlage für vielfältige Methoden der Publikationsstatistik und Zitationsanalyse. Solche bibliometrische Verfahren werden als Instrument der Wissenschaftsforschung eingesetzt, z.B. zur Untersuchung der Frage nach der Obsoleszenz wissenschaftlichen Wissens oder zur Beobachtung des Entstehens neuer wissenschaftlicher Spezialgebiete. Bibliometrie wird aber auch für die Bewertung von Forschungsleistungen genutzt – nicht nur zur Produktion mehr oder weniger fragwürdiger Ranglisten, sondern auch direkt zur Steuerung von Mittelverteilungen im Wissenschaftssystem.

In Form einer Methodenwerkstatt werden die Teilnehmer die Grundlagen der Bibliometrie kennenlernen und in praktischen Übungen eigene Erfahrungen mit den wichtigsten Datenbanken, Methoden, Instrumenten und Indikatoren sammeln.
