“核心期刊”本是指某一学科或研究主题的论文数量比较集中的少数期刊 ,它是根据布拉德福定律遴选出来的。而目前我国出版界和学术界则普遍地将“核心期刊”误认为是代表论文学术品位和学者学术威望的标志性刊物。这一误解已经给学术界和社会造成了不少的负面影响 ,必须予以澄清和修正 “Core Journal” This refers to a small number of papers focused on a subject or research topic, which is selected according to Bradford’s law. At present, the publishing industry in our country and academia generally mistook the “core periodical” as the landmark publication that represents the academic quality of academic essays and academic prestige of scholars. This misunderstanding has caused a lot of negative impact on academia and society and must be clarified and amended.
