Research Evaluation, 1999, vol. 8, issue 2, 71-76

Abstract: Scientific journals not in the English language suffer increasing difficulty in being successful on the international scene. Some Spanish journals of high visibility in the SciSearch database were studied through a set of indicators: presence in databases; size and circulation; domestic or international character through language and authors' affiliation; normalised impact factor; reference and citation patterns compared to paradigmatic journals of the field; basic, clinical or applied nature of research. Their evolution was also studied. A different model of behaviour was observed in basic and clinical or applied journals. Copyright , Beech Tree Publishing.
