To evaluate whether there is any preference for citing journals from other countries to the detriment of Brazilian journals, in three Brazilian orthopedics journals.
All the references of articles published in 2011 by the journals Acta Ortopédica Brasileira, Coluna/Columna and Revista Brasileira de Ortopedia were evaluated to as certain how many of these came from Brazilian journals and how many from foreign journals.
3813 references distributed among 187 articles were analyzed. Out of this total, 306 (8.02%) were from Brazilian journals. There was no difference between the three journals analyzed. There were 76 articles (40.64%) without any citations of articles in Brazilian journals and only two articles (1%) cited more Brazilian articles than articles published elsewhere.
There is a need for Brazilian researchers to cite articles from Brazilian journals more often.
评估巴西三本骨科期刊在引用国外期刊时是否存在对巴西期刊不利的偏好。
对《巴西骨科学报》《脊柱/Columna》和《巴西骨科杂志》2011年发表文章的所有参考文献进行评估,以确定其中有多少来自巴西期刊,多少来自国外期刊。
分析了分布在187篇文章中的3813条参考文献。其中,306条(8.02%)来自巴西期刊。所分析的三本期刊之间没有差异。有76篇文章(40.64%)未引用任何巴西期刊上的文章,只有两篇文章(1%)引用的巴西文章多于其他地方发表的文章。
巴西研究人员需要更频繁地引用巴西期刊上的文章。
