학술지 평가제도와 관리체계에 관한 연구-쟁점과 개선방안-

Abstract

The recent excessive quantitative expansion of academic journals entailsserious side effects such as simplicity and formality for resource management,which allows the evaluation system to be revised. Although the relevantissues are critical, there are few previous studies which can produceevaluation models and in-depth insight by systematic research design orempirical analysis. Against this backdrop, the present study systematicallydiagnoses the problems of evaluation criteria and evaluation methods forjournals, and suggests appropriate ways to reform the evaluation system. The essence of journal evaluation is premised on the following twopropositions: First, it requires autonomous control of the research milieu. Second, academia is in pursuit of qualitative improvement and accountabilityof research activities, which effectively guarantee research excellence andadded value. Multiple regression results identify the number of annualpublications, the period of registration, the number of paid members, andthe KCI as the critical determinants of journal evaluation, which provide anopportunity to convert quantitative to qualitative one. If the goal of journalmanagement is to increase competitiveness and trust by determine whether these objectives are being substantially achieved aredesigned in detail for its own color. evaluating thequality of research, the standards based on the rationale that can reasonably determine whether these objectives are being substantially achieved are designed in detail for its own color.
