Review on knowledge diffusion among journals:Paths,measurement indicators,and applications
[Purposes]This paper aims to analyze the patterns and applications of knowledge diffusion among journals,so as to promote the comprehensive development of journals and provide a new perspective for the positioning and development planning of journals.[Methods]By literature research and content analysis,we reviewed the articles on knowledge diffusion among journals at home and abroad and systematically analyzed the paths and measurement indicators of knowledge diffusion among journals.[Findings]On the basis of clarifying the concept of knowledge diffusion,we reviewed the studies on knowledge diffusion among journals in terms of diffusion paths,measurement indicators,and applications,and summarized the internal evolution paths and laws in the diffusion process.[Conclusions]In the future,multidisciplinary theoretical methods and multilayer network building can be combined to optimize the knowledge diffusion model with consideration to multi-dimension influencing mechanism based on the existing theories.Furthermore,the influence of citation content on the degree of diffusion should be considered in the optimization of the existing indicators for comprehensively measuring the diffusion phenomenon.
