Indexing consistency in Information Science Abstracts
Abstract
A citation analysis was performed on a subset of the information science literature in which quantitative and qualitative measures were employed to explore its relationship to linguistic theory. The overall findings showed that this portion of the information science literature cited linguistic theory very little. Further data analysis showed that small numbers of citing and cited authors accounted for most of the activity; that syntax and semantics occupied more attention from information scientists than other branches of linguistic theory; that information scientists did not cite the same works over time; and that most of the citations to linguistic theory belong to qualitative “non-use” categories. © 1991 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
