Índice Bibliográfico Nacional - IBN Publindex 2004 - 2010

El Sistema Nacional de Indexación de Publicaciones especializadas de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación en Colombia, ha cumplido con el compromiso de reconocer y clasificar en cuatro categorías, las revistas científicas colombianas que cumplen con ciertos niveles de calidad. Esta labor se ha desarrollado a través del Índice Bibliográfico Nacional Publindex, IBN Publindex. Con este instrumento, además de capturar la información particular de cada revista, organizarla, estructurarla y dejarla disponible para la comunidad científica, también ha contribuido con la visibilidad tanto nacional como internacional de las publicaciones colombianas (1)

Usos de los llamados a publicar o Call for Papers en revistas científicas colombianas

It cannot be denied that the call for papers (CFP), used in a systematic way by the ‘predatory’ journals, are important for journals of excellence and second-class ones that turn to these announcements for their regular, themed and commemoratives editions. In this article we show the results of a survey carried out in 2016 to 199 editors of Colombian scientific journals of areas such as Natural Science, Engineering and Technology, Medical Sciences, Agricultural Sciences, Humanities, and Multidisciplinary Sciences. The 75% (143) of the studied journals have a biannual regularity. 37.7% (53) of the editors usually use the CFP announcements to call for articles for their regular editions. 30% (114) of the editors use the journal’s web page to issue their CFP announcements and 29.5% (111) use the e-mail. Nonetheless, 66 editors could not answer how effective were these announcements to draw articles, because they could not define the percentage of the material received that was finally published

Uses of the Calls for Papers in Colombian Scientific Journals

No puede negarse que los llamados a publicar o Call For Papers (CFP), utilizados de manera sistemática por las llamadas revistas “depredadoras”, son importantes para las revistas de excelencia y las de segundo orden que recurren a estos anuncios para sus ediciones regulares, temáticas y conmemorativas. En este artículo, se exponen los resultados de una encuesta realizada en 2016 a 199 editores de revistas científicas colombianas de áreas como Ciencias Naturales, Ingeniería y Tecnología, Ciencias Médicas y de la Salud, Ciencias Agrícolas, Ciencias Sociales, Humanidades y Multidisciplinarias. 143 de las revistas estudiadas (75%) tienen una periodicidad semestral; 53 editores participantes suelen usar los anuncios de CFP con el objetivo de llamar artículos para sus ediciones regulares. De ellos, 30% (114) de los editores utiliza el sitio web de la revista para difundir sus anuncios de CFP y el 29,5% (111) el correo electrónico. Sin embargo, 66 editores no respondieron a qué tan efectivos resultaron estos anuncios para atraer artículos, al no poder determinar el porcentaje de recibidos que fueron publicados.It cannot be denied that the call for papers (CFP), used in a systematic way by the ‘predatory’ journals, are important for journals of excellence and second-class ones that turn to these announcements for their regular, themed and commemoratives editions.

Política nacional y visibilidad internacional : el caso colombiano

RESUMEN: Se analizan los efectos positivos y negativos de las políticas colombianas dirigidas a incentivar la producción científica de los profesores universitarios, además de aquellas que rigen para las instituciones de educación superior dentro de los procesos de acreditación de la calidad y la asignación de recursos del presupuesto nacional. Se pone en evidencia que si bien Colombia reporta la mayor tasa de crecimiento de los países latinoamericanos en la base de datos Scopus y está mejorando sus prácticas de comunicación científica, tiene el reto de acompañar los resultados de este desempeño, con un mayor énfasis en los indicadores de calidad. Son necesarios ajustes a las políticas relacionadas con la producción científica colombiana en aras de una mayor visibilidad internacional y un sistema de incentivos a investigadores e instituciones de educación superior más eficiente. En esta dirección empiezan a orientarse las nuevas disposiciones.ABSTRACT: The positive and negative effects of policies aimed at encouraging scientific output by university professors in Colombia, in addition to those that apply to higher education institutions in the quality accreditation process and in national Budget resource allocation, are discussed. Although Colombia reported the highest rate of growth among Latin American countries in the Scopus database and is improving its scientific communication practices, the country now has the challenge of combining these performance results with a greater emphasis on quality indicators. In order to achieve greater international visibility, policy adjustments related to improving scientific production are needed, as well as a more efficient incentives system for researchers and higher education institutions. New policy provisions are beginning to be focussed in this direction
