The Dynamic Evolution Recognition of Altmetrics Based on Associated Topics

Abstract

Abstract: Altmetrics is a new kind of metric methods in the era of Web2.0, which attracts more and more
scholars at home and abroad. In order to provide references for Altmetrics research in China, recognize the international Altmetrics topic dynamics, and discover the international Altmetrics knowledge evolution pattern, this paper uses SciMAT software to draw three knowledge mappings (i.e., the overlapping map,evolution map and strategic diagram) of Altmetrics research literatures from WoS that were published from 2012 to 2015. This study finds that, based on traditional metrology, the theoretical system of Altmetrics contains Bibliometrics, Scientometrics, Informetrics and Webometrics; the contents of topics change from academic influence research to academic influence research and social influence research; and the scope of
measurement data changes from citation data to citation data and social media data. Therefore, Altmetrics has an extensive range of research, application and development. It deserves attention from researchers,especially metrology researchers.

Key words: Altmetrics, Dynamic evolution, Associated topics, SciMAT
