Characteristics of a Literature as Predictors of Relatedness Between Cited and Citing Works

Author

Listed:
  • Susan Bonzi

Abstract

A preliminary investigation was conducted to explore which characteristics of citing and cited works may aid in determining relatedness between documents. Thirteen variables were tested on 31 library/information science articles containing nearly 500 citations. Analysis indicates that source of cited work, source of citing work, number of times a work is cited in text, and type of citing article show promise of predicting relatedness between citing and cited works.
