Abstract

Background and Aim: CITATION is one of the journals ranking factors. SELF-CITATION rates regarding journals’ performance, especially in international databases, is important. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of Journal SELF-CITATION on IMPACT FACTOR of Iranian English MEDICAL JOURNALS indexed in the WEB OF SCIENCE and Islamic World Science CITATION Center.Materials and Methods: The IMPACT FACTOR of 12 journals in WoS and 26 in ISC were studied during years 2006-2009 using CITATION analysis and Journal SELF-CITATION. SELF-CITATION rate were calculated using cited journals and citing journals tables in ISC. Wilcoxon test and Mann-whiteny test were used for comparison of SELF-CITATION rate between two databases. In order to determine any correlation between journal SELF-CITATION and IF in WoS, Pearson test was used. In ISC, Spearman test was performed. For comparison of two correlations test, Covariance test was used.Results: No significant difference between Journal SELF-CITATION rates in two databases was noted(p>0.05).There was a significant correlation between Journal SELF-CITATION and IMPACT FACTOR in WoS(p=0.007, r=0.64). The correlation was not statistically significant in ISC(p>0.05, rsp=0.23). There was not any significant difference between the relations of Journal SELF-CITATION and IMPACT FACTOR in two databases(p=0.526).Conclusion: Attention to the Journal SELF-CITATION rates for comparison of Journal IMPACT FACTOR in WoS is more important than attention to the comparison of these journals between two Databases.
