This study is an application of the relationship of serial articles published to serial articles cited, developed in theory in the author's "Statistical Bibliography in the Health Sciences" (Bulletin 50: 450-461, July 1962). A ranked list of the indexes of significance of most of the serials indexed in Current List of Medical Literature was derived and erected from 21,000 citations secured in a random sampling of 1962 and 1961 biomedical journals regularly received in the Yale Medical Library. The author measures the gross indexing effectiveness of Current List against his indexes of significance, offers his method and results as means to reach objective standards for indexing and abstracting, and projects his results as measures of general value of the serials analyzed.
本研究应用了作者在《健康科学中的统计文献目录》(《通报》第50期:450 - 461页,1962年7月)中从理论上阐述的已发表系列文章与被引用系列文章之间的关系。从耶鲁医学图书馆定期收到的1962年和1961年生物医学期刊的随机抽样中获取的21,000条参考文献中,得出并建立了《医学文献最新目录》中索引的大多数系列文献的重要性索引排名列表。作者对照其重要性索引衡量了《医学文献最新目录》的总体索引效果,提出了他的方法和结果,作为达到索引和摘要客观标准的手段,并将他的结果作为所分析系列文献总体价值的衡量标准。
