Resumen

SARDUY DOMINGUEZ, Yanetsys; LLANUSA RUIZ, Susana Beatriz; URRA GONZALEZ, Pedro  y  ANTELO CORDOVES, José Manuel. Characterization of the scientific production of the National School of Public Health included in Scopus database, 2006-2012. Educ Med Super [online]. 2014, vol.28, n.2, pp.243-259. ISSN 0864-2141.

Objective: to characterize the scientific production of the full-time faculty of the National School of Public Health included in the Scopus database, 2006-2012. Methods: a search was made in Scopus database and the results were transferred to Endnote X3. Using an informatics application, the information was converted into several files that were taken to Microsoft Excel 2010 and SPSS 19 for analysis. Results: four hundred and twenty journal articles and Congress memoirs were retrieved. Thirty hundred and seventy three of them had at least one author from the full-time faculty. The articles came from 40 journals (15 Cuban and 25 foreign). The mostly used Cuban journals for publication were Educación Médica Superior, Salud Pública and Medicina General Integral. The average of publications per professor was 0.57; just 16 of these professors had 10 or more publications recorded in Scopus database and the role of secondary author was predominant in 364 articles (63.4 %). The seventeen references that were most cited appeared in international English journals. The Cuban article holding the best position (18th place) was published in Revista Cubana de Salud Publica. There was thematic dispersion in the keywords even from the same author. Conclusions: the scientific production of the full-time faculty of the National School of Public Health in Scopus database is essentially characterized by the conformity with the priority research lines, the unevenly distribution of publications among the members of the faculty, the multiple authorship and the thematic dispersion.
