Estimate research activity of the scientist, using Web of Science. What information can be obtained, give an example.



WebofScience (WOS) is the most authoritative analytical and citation database of journal articles in the world, combining 3 databases: Science / SocialSciences / Arts & HumanitiesCitationIndex. These resources do not contain full texts of articles, but they include references to the full texts in the sources and lists of all the bibliographic references found in each publication, which allows obtaining in the shortest possible time the most complete bibliography on the topic of interest (the depth of the archive is 20 years). Also on the start page there is a link, not an EndNote resource, that provides quick and easy information gathering for links from a wide range of sources, such as PubMed and WebofKnowledge, using direct upload, online search and import of text files.

Impact factor must be taken into account, first of all, the scientific journal, since it is a formal numerical indicator of its importance. The impact factor of a scientific journal is calculated every year by the basis of scientific citation WebofScience. The impact factor shows how many times on average each article published in the journal is cited during the two following years after its publication. It is not difficult to understand what significance for the authors of scientific articles has the impact factor of the magazine in which they are published, since this indicator most directly affects the international scientific status of authors of a specific scientific publication.

By subject filling, WebofScience belongs to the category of multidisciplinary, covering almost all fields of knowledge. This database of scientific citations gives an opportunity to quickly obtain bibliometric information on various indicators - countries, journals, organizations, subject areas, etc. That's why publications in the journals indexed by WebofScience are so important.

Estimate the system of scientific research financing in RK, being guided by the new Law about RK science.

 According to the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan "On Science" of February 18, 2011, the financing of scientific, scientific and technical activities from the state budget is carried out in the following forms:

1. Basic financing.

2. Grant financing.

3. Program-targeted financing.

Financing of scientific research is carried out by grant financing. In all countries with successful science functions of grant financing. In some countries, there are several such funds. Separation of basic funding from the program-target eliminates the problem of investment of funds for the maintenance of scientific institutions. However, whatever I was.

The decision on grant financing in Kazakhstan, as well as in other foreign organizations, is made by the National Scientific Council and approved by the appropriate authorities that announced the tender.

It should be noted that the amount of allocated funds for the development of science and innovation has grown significantly over the past year. If in 2011 the total amount of research subsidies allocated from the budget was KZT28.8 bn, then in 2012 the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan pledged KZT49 bn, which increased the growth of financing of the scientific sector by 70%. By 2015, the goal is to raise the level of financing to 1% of GDP, and by 2020 to reach at least 1.5% of GDP. The planned growth in financing sources of the scientific and innovation climate and its approach to the level of other rapidly developing countries.

The implemented system of financing scientific, scientific and technical activities in the form of basic, grant and program-targeted financing will provide greater flexibility in the targeted allocation and development of public funds. Thus, a real base has been created that will provide positive transformations and open new opportunities for your scientists. It allows them to conduct research at a more competitive level and actively integrate into the global scientific space.

In the period from September 2011 to December 2012 four tenders for grant financing of scientific research were held:

July 30, 2011 - a grant competition for scientific, scientific and technical programs and projects in 2011-2013, with a total amount of grant funding - 12 billion rubles. tenge.

April 26, 2012 - a competition for the implementation of scientific, scientific and technical projects for technological and social innovation in 2012-2014. with a total volume of grant financing - 1 billion rubles. tenge.

April 29, 2012 - competition for grant financing of scientific research for 2012-2014, with a total volume of grant financing - 1.7 billion tenge

November 29, 2012 - competition for grant financing of scientific research for 2013-2015. with a total volume of grant financing - 3 billion rubles. tenge.

41) Impact factor (IF, or IF) is a numerical indicator of the importance of a scientific journal. Since the 1960s, it has been calculated annually by the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI), which in 1992 was acquired by Thomson Corporation and is now called Thomson Scientific, and is published in the journal Journal Citation Report. In accordance with IF (mainly in other countries, but more recently in Russia), the level of journals is assessed, the quality of the articles published in them, provide financial support to researchers and take employees to work. Impact factor has a large but ambiguously assessed influence on the evaluation of scientific research results. The calculation of the impact factor is based on a three-year period. For example, the impact factor of the magazine in 2014 I2014 is calculated as follows: I2014 = A / B, where: A is the number of citations during 2014 in journals tracked by the Institute of Scientific Information, articles published in this journal in 2012-2013; B is the number of articles published in this journal in 2012-2013 [1].

There are several nuances in the calculation: the Institute for Scientific Information excludes certain types of articles (messages, letters, errata lists, etc.) from calculations, and for new journals the impact factor is sometimes calculated only for biennia.

The standard way of assessing the level of scientists is the citation index (impact factor).

The citation index shows how many times the articles written by this author have been cited in the works of other authors. As a rule, a scientist has a large citation index, if his works were published in journals with a high impact factor.

For many years, the inspiration and organizer of the development of this idea is Eugene Garfield, Ph.D., the founder of the current Thomson Scientific, part of Thomson Corporation, the world's leading provider of information for professionals.

In order to select magazines for SCI, in the early 1960s Yu Garfield and his colleagues developed a method for calculating the impact factor. The need for it arose because the use of the number of articles or the frequency of citing them as criteria led to the exclusion of small or specialized publications.

Impact factor is an important characteristic of scientific journals. It is calculated every year by the Institute of Scientific Information (ISI). Impact factor of the journal is equal to the relation of references for a certain period (usually 3 years) to articles in this journal to the number of articles published in it.

Scientific foundations when allocating grants for research projects consider the citation index of the project manager and the impact factors of the journals in which his work is published as the most important criteria.

With the help of this indicator, it is estimated how many times in a certain period the "middle article" of a particular publication was quoted. The classical impact factor is defined as the ratio between the number of references per year to journal articles published in the previous two years and the number of these articles.

Thanks to the wide coverage of periodicals and informativeness, the impact factor has gained worldwide recognition, went beyond purely theoretical interest and became widely used in publishing and scientific circles as a way of evaluating scientific journals and the activities of individual scientists.
