Analysis of the impact of studies published by Internext - Revista Eletrônica de Negócios Internacionais

Abstract

This is a citation analysis of the journal InternexT-Revista Eletrônica de Negócios Internacionais to determine the impact caused by studies published from 2006 to 2013. The software Publish or Perish (PoP) was used, which retrieves articles and citations from the Google Scholar database. Among the indicators applied were: distribution of authors per article, citations per year, citation versus self-citation, citable journals versus non-citable documents, citation of the journal versus uncited documents, co-word analysis and h-index. 131 articles were obtained with a total of 153 citations received until June 2014. The articles tend to have multiple authors and an upward trend in citations was detected. The levels of self-citation were very low and most of the citing sources are Brazilian journals. There were more uncited than cited articles and those published during the first years (2006-2008) caused a larger impact.  The most cited articles are related to the topics of internationalization theory and strategy, transaction analysis and corporative governance. The h-index according to PoP is 6 and the g-index is 9.
