  1. Finnish Science in International Comparison: A Bibliometric Analysis Annamaija Lehvo & Anu Nuutinen Academy of Finland

  2. Raportissa tarkastellaan Suomen kansainvälisen, tieteellisen julkaisutoiminnan rakennetta ja tasoa sektoreittain, organisaatioittain ja päätieteenaloittain 1990-luvun puolivälistä lähtien. Lisäksi raportissa vertaillaan kansainvälisesti suomalaisen tutkimuksen tuloksellisuutta ja tasoa sekä näkyvyyttä ja tieteellistä vaikuttavuutta 20 vuoden ajalla 1985–2005. Raportin sisällöstä

  3. Table 1. Bibliometric science indicators.

  4. Bibliometristen tiedeindikaattoreiden käyttökelpoisuus rajallista ja tulkitseminen harvoin ongelmatonta Voidaan hyödyntää arviointien apuna, keskustelun herättäjinä ja erilaisten kysymysten asettelussa. Julkaisu- ja viittauskäytännöt vaihtelevat tieteenaloittain, joten eri aloja ei voi verrata suoraan toisiinsa. Eri aloilla suuriakin eroja mm. reaktionopeudessa uuteen kirjallisuuteen, julkaisujen eliniässä sekä julkaisu- ja viittauskäytännöissä. Bibliometriset tiedeindikaattorit

  5. Tietokantoihin luokitellut tieteelliset lehdet noudattavat vertaisarviointimenettelyä Lehdet ja samalla niiden sisältämät julkaisut on luokiteltu tieteenalaluokkiin, jotka tässä raportissa on sovitettu OECD:n käyttämään kuuteen päätieteenalaluokkaan National Science Indicators -tietokanta (NSI) 1981-2005 noin 10 000 tieteellistä lehteä maailman tieteenalakohtaiset (yli 170 maata) julkaisu- ja viittaustiedot OECD-maiden osuus koko maailman julkaisumäärästä 86 prosenttia. 2) National Citation Report (NCR) -tietokanta 1995-2004 Suomen tieteenalakohtaiset julkaisu- ja viittaustiedot noin 6 300 tieteellistä lehteä suomalaisten tutkijoiden julkaisut ja viittaukset tutkija-, maa-, tieteenala- ja organisaatiokohtaisesti vuosittain Raportissa hyödynnetyt Thomson Scientificin tietokannat

Figures presented for natural sciences, engineering and technology, and medical sciences. aPublications numbers of less than 20 and corresponding citation impacts have been removed from the table.b In comparing the impact factors of different organisations we need to bear in mind the differences in the relative weight of various disciplines in their publishing profiles (see also Figures 1 and 2 in Appendix 1).

Publication numbers for 2005 given in parentheses. a Coefficient of change: E.g. 1 + [(publication number in 2005 – publication number in 1985) / publication number in 1985]. Coefficient of change is 1 if the number of publications is the same across the years compared. b Data for Iceland and Luxembourg missing because of small overall number of publications.c EU 25 refers to the current 25 EU countries during the period under review.d Data for Czech Republic and Slovakia available from 1994, rate of change not available.

Countries listed in order of the size of annual change in 2001–2005. a Average annual change e.g. in 2001–2005: (Number of publications in 2005 / number of publications in 2001)1/(t-1), t = length of period under investigation. As the 2001–2005 period covers five years, the difference in the number of publications is raised to the power of 1/(5–1) = 0.25.b Data for Iceland and Luxembourg missing because of small overall number of publications.c EU 25 refers to the current 25 EU countries during the period under review.d Data for Czech Republic and Slovakia available from 1994, average annual change in 1991–1995 not available.

  26. Suomalaiset tutkijat julkaisevat määrällisesti enemmän kuin koskaan aikaisemmin kansainvälisissä, vertaisarvioiduissa lehdissä Asukaslukuun ja bruttokansantuotteeseen suhteutettuna Suomi yksi suurimpia julkaisujen tuottajia maailmassa Suomen julkaisuprofiili: yliopistot 69 %, valtion tutkimuslaitokset 17 %, yritykset 6 %  painottuu päätieteenaloittain luonnontieteisiin ja lääketieteisiin kuten OECD-maissa keskimäärin Suomalainen tiede laadukkaampaa kuin OECD-maissa keskimäärin: Julkaisuihin viitataan 13 prosenttia enemmän kuin OECD-maiden julkaisuihin päätieteenaloista maataloustieteet ja lääketieteet OECD-maiden tasoa merkittävästi laadukkaampia Suomen tieteen kansainvälistyminen jatkunut 1990-luvulta lähtien suotuisasti eniten yhteistyötä: Yhdysvallat, Ruotsi, Iso-Britannia, Saksa, Ranska, Alankomaat ja Venäjä. Suomen tieteen kehitys ja asema kansainvälisessä vertailussa

  27. Monien korkean tutkimusintensiteetin maiden kuten Yhdysvaltojen, Saksan, Ranskan ja Englannin tieteen nopea kasvu 1980-luvulla Suomessa tieteen voimakkain kasvu 1990-luvun alkupuoliskolla Euroopan eteläisissä pienissä tiedemaissa ja Aasian maista Kiinassa ja Etelä-Koreassa voimakasta kasvua 2000-luvulla Tieteen maantiede muutoksessa
