This study was designed to determine the opinion of the Spanish Society of Cardiology (SSC) members on the quality of the contents and of the editorial procedures, and the impact of the Revista Española de Cardiología.
A random sample of 500 SSC members was chosen to answer a structured questionnaire. The participants' confidentially was guaranteed.
The response rate was 70.9% (344 questionnaires). 79.9% of respondents were clinical cardiologists, and 89.4% (Confidence Interval [CI] 95%: 85.8-93.0) regularly read the Journal. The most preferred, read and better scored were revisions and update sections. Among clinical cardiologists, 76.6% (IC 95%: 71.6-81.6) had submitted at least one manuscript to the Journal, and 71.7% (IC 95%: 65.5-77.9) stated having received a good quality review, although 26.1% (IC 95%: 20.1-32.1) found it slow. The acceptance rate was 75.9% (IC 95%: 70.1-81.5). Among the 35 cardiologists who sent their manuscripts as a second option, 20.0% (IC 95%: 9.4-42.4) did so because of the low impact of the Journal. All the editorial issues received a good score. Finally, 94.7% (IC 95%: 92.3-97.1) of participants stated the Journal was at least useful.
These results show the SSC members' opinions of the Journal with an appropriate confidence level. The participants' opinions suggest that the scientific and editorial quality, as well as the usefulness of the Journal satisfy most readers.
本研究旨在确定西班牙心脏病学会（SSC）成员对《西班牙心脏病学杂志》内容质量、编辑流程以及该杂志影响力的看法。
选取500名SSC成员的随机样本，让他们回答一份结构化问卷。保证参与者的信息保密。
回复率为70.9%（344份问卷）。79.9%的受访者为临床心脏病专家，89.4%（95%置信区间：85.8 - 93.0）经常阅读该杂志。最受青睐、阅读量最大且评分最高的是综述和更新板块。在临床心脏病专家中，76.6%（95%置信区间：71.6 - 81.6）至少向该杂志提交过一篇稿件，71.7%（95%置信区间：65.5 - 77.9）表示收到过高质量的评审意见，不过26.1%（95%置信区间：20.1 - 32.1）觉得评审速度慢。录用率为75.9%（95%置信区间：70.1 - 81.5）。在将稿件作为第二选择投稿的35名心脏病专家中，20.0%（95%置信区间：9.4 - 42.4）这样做是因为该杂志影响力低。所有编辑相关问题的评分都很高。最后，94.7%（95%置信区间：92.3 - 97.1）的参与者表示该杂志至少是有用的。
这些结果在适当的置信水平下显示了SSC成员对该杂志的看法。参与者的意见表明该杂志的科学和编辑质量以及实用性令大多数读者满意。
