A bibliometric study on the scientific production of the Revista CENIC Ciencias Químicas during the period 1996-2005 was made. This serial publication is an official journal of the National Center for Scientific Research (NCSR), and its objective is the diffusion of outstanding and new results developed inside and outside the country in the branch of Chemical Sciences, mainly contributions on Analytical Chemistry, Chemical Physics, Inorganic and Organic Chemistry. The annual behaviour of the papers published in the journal is shown, as well as their typology. The predominance of original scientific papers can be observed. The authors with five or more papers during the studied period are presented, as well as the institutions and branches with a higher presence in the scientific production of the journal. The behaviour of the most productive branches from the NCSR, specifically the Chemical one, the Ozone Research Center, and the Center of Natural Products, is compared with the corresponding ones of important national institutions as the Faculty of Chemistry, the Institute of Materials and Reagents and the Center of Biomaterials, all belonging to the University of Havana, and the Center of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, the Institute of Food Industry Research, and the Higher Polytechnic Institute "José Antonio Echeverría". The transparency in the publishing policy for the selection of papers was evidenced. The necessity to revise the journal diffusion, promotion, distribution and visibility policies, in order to achieve the indicators of international presence and collaboration, was demonstrated.

The present article intends to continue previous studies on the state of the communication research in Spain. An in-depth study of the Spanish Communication researchers in Scopus international database is developed to monitor their productivity and visibility. Results show a limited presence and a low scientific production. In addition it is fragmented in multiple lines of research, it is little collaborative, more national than international, in Spanish and little visible. There is a polarization between two situations: visible full professors and untenured professors, emerging producers but invisible. Attending to gender differences, male researchers produce more papers and they are more visible than women. The creation of interuniversity networks that improve international publication is recommended. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We present the final results of an investigation (UBACYT F157) that determined the scientific production indicators of the Facultad de Filosofía y Letras of the Universidad de Buenos Aires for 2007. Quantitative procedures were applied to analyze the data recorded in a database created ad hoc. Preferences of researchers to disseminate their findings through the production of journal articles, conference papers, book chapters and books, audiovisual and electronic productions were determined. Among the different bibliographic formats, the following variables were studied: language, types of journals, scope of the conferences, authors, types of publishers. Of the three hypotheses stated the one that presupposed the existence of various strategies for dissemination of knowledge among different disciplines has been refuted. The other two were confirmed: preference for printed over digital media and almost non-existent use of electronic resources for dissemination, and preference for certain semi-formal channels of dissemination such as conferences. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

With the aim to create production indicators through the gathering of researchers curricula and starting with the data resulting from the INTA scientific production for the period 2000-2005, this paper analyzes the validity of the Impact Factor as a way to evaluate researchers' scientific activity. Also, a reflection is done about the proposal of alternative systems to measure the production, in particular the H index, from Hirsch, in order to define the most convenient system for our institution.
