To identify important information on the state of academic nursing and the characteristics of academic nursing publications in Turkey.
The study consists of retrospective bibliometric research. The selected sample of the research consisted of six Turkish nursing journals published between 1994-2003 from a total population of ten journals. Seventy-four issues of these six journals were included and 825 research papers were analysed. A series of classic bibliometric indexes were used.
The average number of references per scientific paper is 16.19 [+/-standard deviation (SD) 8.56]. The changes in the number of references taken from journals over time do not show strong fluctuations but were statistically significant (P < 0.001). The average number of references per paper is 17.71 (+/-SD 8.09) for research papers, while it is 14.50 (+/-SD 8.76) for reviews. The Price's index is 23.8% and the insularity index is 31.8%.
The number of references used for papers has been increasing in recent years. The use of journals within references is high while the use of books is low. The Price's index tendency is decreasing. The high insularity index observed in the articles may be considered as a negative indicator of nursing journals in Turkey.
确定土耳其学术护理状况和学术护理出版物特点的重要信息。
本研究包括回顾性文献计量学研究。研究的样本由 1994-2003 年间出版的十本期刊中的六本土耳其护理期刊组成。这六本期刊的 74 期被纳入，分析了 825 篇研究论文。使用了一系列经典的文献计量学指标。
每篇科学论文的参考文献平均数量为 16.19[+/-标准偏差（SD）8.56]。随着时间的推移，期刊参考文献数量的变化没有明显波动，但具有统计学意义（P<0.001）。研究论文的平均参考文献数量为 17.71[+/-SD 8.09]，综述的平均参考文献数量为 14.50[+/-SD 8.76]。普赖斯指数为 23.8%，隔离指数为 31.8%。
近年来，论文中使用的参考文献数量一直在增加。参考文献中期刊的使用频率较高，而书籍的使用频率较低。普赖斯指数呈下降趋势。在文章中观察到的高隔离指数可能被认为是土耳其护理期刊的一个负面指标。
