An Analysis of Research Publications Supported by NIH (National Institutes of Health) 1970-1976: NIH and NCI (National Cancer Institute)

摘要

Presents an analytic characterization of 1970-1976 research publications supported by the National Cancer Institute. A parallel report has been prepared for each of the National Institutes of Health (except NIA and NIEHS for which sufficient data were not available). These reports are an outgrowth of the collaborative association between Computer Horizons Inc. (CHI) and NIH on the development and application of indicators of biomedical research activity. The present group of reports is intended to introduce to NIH Bureaus, Institutes and Divisions (B/I/Ds) a new set of tools of analysis, called Bibliometrics, for program review and evaluation in providing sensitive indicators of activity and change in scientific productivity.
