Our results also show that academic journals had an estimated 92% Active rate, and 8% Inactive rate annually. Out of all Active journals, approximately 43% have high impact and reach JCR or SJR databases, and 26% have relatively higher impact and are thus collected in the JCR database. The comparison results of Active/InactiveSJR and JCR journals suggest that lower impact journals have a higher chance to become Inactive than higher impact journals. With the wide use of the Internet in academic science, our results expectedly show that the number of Print-Only journals is gradually decreasing while the number of Online-Only journals is increasing. The growth of Online-Only journals exceeds the growth of Print-Only journals in 2007, and the number of Online-Only journals exceeded the number of Print and Only journals in 2012. More than 30% Newly Created journals provide Open Access. It is suggested that we are experiencing the second journal boom in history and Internet technology has changed the academic publication system.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 16:42:32 AEST ]]> The historical development of academic journals in occupational medicine, 1901-2009 https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:7500 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:38:33 AEDT ]]>
