Journal : Bookshelf : Publishing Vol 34(4), November 2008 Email this article  Printer friendly page Schmoch U, Schubert T. Are international co-publications an indicator for quality of scientific research? Scientometrics 2008;74(3):361–377. (doi:10.1007/s11192-007-1818-5) The article deals with the role of internationally co-authored papers, or co-publications. The authors compare, within a dataset of German research units, citation and co-publication indicators as proxies for scientific research quality assessment. They also address the relationship between citations and co-publications. Their results suggest that, although there is a strong partial correlation between citations and co-publications, co-publication indicators cannot be used as a proxy for research quality assessment. © Copyright 2009 by European Association of Science Editors Top of Page
