Title: THE LITERATURE OF POPULATION STUDIES: CITATION PATTERNS AND BIBLIOGRAPHIC CONTROL
Abstract: The objectives of this study were (a) to identify those journal titles which were most frequently cited by population scientists who published articles in seventeen source journals during 1977; and (b) to determine the comprehensiveness of various indexing and abstracting services with respect to their coverage of population periodical literature. The study was also designed to identify differences in citation patterns of various sub-areas of population studies i.e.,citation patterns characteristic of biomedical, demographic, social science, operations research, and adminitrative/legislative authors. The temporal span of population literature citation and types of documents cited were also investigated.
RESEARCH DESIGN Investigative procedures included the selection of source journals, a citation analysis to identify the one hundred most frequently cited periodical titles, and an evaluation of commercially available bibliographic retrieval: services for coverage of frequently cited titles. Indexing/abstracting services examined were: POPINFORM, Population Index, Population Sciences, Excerpta Medicia, BIOSIS, Index Medicus, PsYChological Abstracts, Sociological Abstracts, and the ISI data bases, Social Science and Science Citation Indexes.
