    Subject analysis: the critical first stage in indexing

    Abstract: Studies of indexing neglect the first stage of the process, that is, subject analysis. In this study, novice indexers were asked to analyse three short, popular journal articles; to express the general subject as well as the primary and sec ondary topics in natural language statements; to state what influenced the analysis and to comment on the ease or diffi culty of this process. The factors which influenced the process were: the subject discipline concerned, factual is subjective nature of the text, complexity of the subject, clarity of text, possible support offered by bibliographic apparatus such as title, etc. The findings showed that with the social science and science texts, the general subject could be determined with ease, while this was more difficult with the humanities text. Clear evidence emerged of the importance of bibliographical apparatus in defining the general subject. There was varying difficulty in determining the primary and secondary topics.

    Non-indexed eponymal citedness (NIEC): first fact-finding examination of a phenomenon of scientific literature
    SAGE Publications ; 1994

    Abstract: The phenomenon of non-indexed eponymal cited ness (NIEC) in physics literature was one of the method ological questions debated in the so-called and well-known Ortega Hypothesis case in Science, but it remained unsolved for lack of factual research data. According to the results of this first fact-finding examination, the NIEC phenomenon is a very frequent and long-standing feature in the journal literature of physics, with permanent and growing impor tance in respect of both the number of scientists in question and the number of all eponymal citations not indexed by Science Citation Index ( SCI) . The nature and phenomenology of non-indexed eponymal citedness is given in brief. The emergence of the phenomenon of NIEC marks the end of the first stage of the Merton 'obliteration by incorporation' (OBI) as a process. From the viewpoint of indexed-formal cited ness, the literature phenomenon of NIEC is a special case of Garfield's 'uncitedness'. The neglect of eponymal citedness of the most eminent scientists and the omission of the view point of historical temporality in the analysis of citation data are the most serious methodological faults committed in the indexed author 'citation analyses' which evaluate scientists. The results of this first examination of the NIEC phenomenon of scientific literature constitute a new argument against the use of bibliographic data of citation indexes for the evaluation of scientists as scientists and/or for other similar non-bibliographic purposes.
