    El papel de las bibliotecas en la evaluación de la investigación. Indicadores bibliométricos y altmétricos
    (Colegio Oficial de Médicos de Madrid, 2015-01-02) Escudero Gómez, Cristina; Estrada Lorenzo, José Manuel; García Romero, Antonio; Gómez, Alicia Fátima; https://ror.org/00c5kmy11
    English abstract Bibliometrics has become an important part of in our libraries. In addition, social networks and new forms of communication have brought us another way to measure and evaluate the knowledge, publications, communication and science: altmetrics. Therefore, it is good time to reflect on the use, requirements, applications, advantages, challenges, opportunities and the future of bibliometrics in the libraries of health sciences. This document is the result of comments, opinions and ideas expressed by the participants of the Working Group "The role of libraries in the evaluation of research. Altmetrics and bibliometric indicators”, meeting on May 23 in Madrid, at the headquarters of the College of Physicians of Madrid, on the XV Conference on Information and Documentation in Health Sciences (Bibliosalud 2014), under the address of the working group, Antonio Garcia Romero, the IE University and member of the ENID (European Network of Designers Indicator). Spanish abstract La bibliometría se ha convertido en un instrumento más en nuestras bibliotecas, añadiendo a la situación tradicional el hecho de que las redes sociales y las nuevas formas de comunicación nos han acercado otra forma de medir y evaluar el conocimiento, las publicaciones, la comunicación y la ciencia: las altmetrics. Por todo ello, es buen momento para reflexionar sobre el uso, las necesidades, las aplicaciones, las ventajas, los retos, las oportunidades y el futuro de la bibliometría en las bibliotecas de ciencias de la salud. Este documento es el resultado de los comentarios, opiniones y reflexiones vertidas por los participantes del Grupo de Trabajo «El papel de las bibliotecas en la evaluación de la investigación. Indicadores bibliométricos y altmétricos», reunidos el 23 de mayo en Madrid, en la sede del Colegio de Médicos de Madrid, con ocasión de las XV Jornadas de Información y Documentación en Ciencias de la Salud (Bibliosalud 2014), bajo la dirección del responsable del grupo de trabajo, Antonio Garcia Romero, de la IE University y miembro de la ENID (European Network of Indicator Designers).

    Standing on Slippery Shoulders: An Analysis of Post Retraction Citation in Business and Management
    (2023-04-27) Gonzalez Mancebo, Samuel; García Romero, Antonio; Ortega, Carla; Alejo Concepción Perdomo, Manuel; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    The recognition mechanism by citing those who have influenced a new piece of research is considered the best way to guarantee scientific progress. The metaphor used by Sir Isaac Newton, "standing on the shoulders of giants," illustrate this mechanism. However, the increasing number of retractions and citations they receive reveal that, in some cases, scientists are standing on "slippery shoulders." Hence, it is relevant to explore the phenomena of post-retraction citations. Our study focuses on three research questions: i) time to retraction, ii) citations received by retracted papers, and iii) highly influential citations received the retractions. We answer these questions using a data set from Retraction Watch comprising 949 retractions in three Areas (Business & Management, Social Sciences, and Technology). First, we conduct an ANOVA analysis to find significant differences among the three areas. Later, we estimate three Poisson models to answer the three research questions. We discovered that retractions in Business & Management are published in more prestigious journals and by more prominent institutions than in the other two areas. From the models, we highlight that the journals' prestige positively affects the time to retraction, the post-retraction citations, and, more worryingly, the highly influential citations. Our results suggest that scientists seem to be unaware that some papers have been retracted. We suggest journals improve the procedure to prevent publishing papers citing retracted papers.
