ABSTRACT

This study analyzes the impact of international articles on the reputation of finance journals. The association between journal rankings and geographical contents is examined by focusing on two citation-based indicators and two ranking methods using expert opinions. The results clearly indicate that the four methodologies are correlated with a strong preference for articles focusing on the United States. They also show that international topics are often associated with lower journal rankings. Although articles with a global or European scope do not seem to affect journal reputation, contents focusing on world regions such as Asia or Africa are often correlated with lower journal visibility. These results suggest that the strong emphasis placed by scholars on top-ranked finance journals may conflict with the internationalization of business education.

摘要

本研究分析了国际文章对金融期刊声誉的影响。通过关注两个基于引文的指标和使用专家意见的两种排名方法来检查期刊排名与地理内容之间的关联。结果清楚地表明，这四种方法与对关注美国的文章的强烈偏好相关。他们还表明，国际主题通常与较低的期刊排名有关。尽管全球或欧洲范围的文章似乎不会影响期刊声誉，但关注亚洲或非洲等世界地区的内容往往与较低的期刊知名度相关。
