Certain organic substances change color in dilute solution when the hydronium ion concentration reaches a particular value. For example, phenolphthalein is a colorless substance in any aqueous solution with a hydronium ion concentration greater than 5.0 × 10−9 M (pH < 8.3). In more basic solutions where the hydronium ion concentration is less than 5.0 × 10−9 M (pH > 8.3), it is red or pink. Substances such as phenolphthalein, which can be used to determine the pH of a solution, are...

Data Collection by Observations

13.1K
Data collection refers to a systematic way of obtaining, observing, measuring, and analyzing accurate information. Observational studies are one of the most widely used methods of data collection. It involves collecting data by observing the behavior and physical characteristics of a sample without making any modifications to the sample.
An astronomer viewing the motion and brightness of stars in the sky and recording the data is an example of observational data collection. A botanist recording...

Scanning Electron Microscopy

4.5K
A scanning electron microscope (SEM) is used to study the surface features of a sample by using an electron beam that scans the sample surface in a two-dimensional manner. Typically, areas between ~1 centimeter to 5 micrometers in width can be imaged. SEM can be used to image bacteria, viruses, tissues as well as larger samples like insects. Conventional SEM gives a magnification ranging from 20X to 30,000X and spatial resolution of 50 to 100 nanometers.

Biodiversity and Human Values

13.6K
Human civilization relies on biodiversity in many ways. Sudden changes in species biodiversity result in environmental changes that can modify weather patterns and therefore human civilizations.

Observational Studies

10.1K
Observational studies are a type of analytical study where researchers observe events without any interventions. In other words, the researcher does not influence the response variable or the experiment's outcome.
There are three types of observational studies – Prospective, retrospective, and cross-sectional.
Prospective Study
Prospective studies, also known as longitudinal or cohort studies, are carried out by collecting future data from groups sharing similar characteristics. One...

Data Collection by Survey01:07

Data Collection by Survey

7.3K
The systematic method of obtaining and analyzing accurate information of a population is called data collection. A survey is a standard method of data collection that involves collecting information from a target human population about their experience, opinion, or knowledge of a product, service, or process. The responses are recorded and interpreted. The most common survey examples are written questionnaires, face-to-face or telephonic conversations, focus groups, and electronic (e-mail or...

Area of Science:

  • Bibliometrics
  • Open Science
  • Scientific Communication

Background:

  • The field of scientometrics has seen significant advancements since 2000.
  • Innovations like Digital Object Identifiers (DOI) and ORCID have transformed scientific landscape and data analysis.
  • The evolution of funding information from acknowledgments to structured metadata sets a precedent for incorporating new data types.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose open science practices (open data, open material, preregistration) as article-specific metadata fields.
  • To explore the potential of these indicators for enhancing scientometric analysis.
  • To draw parallels with the historical integration of funding information into scientific metadata.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review on scientometrics and open science.
  • Analysis of existing metadata standards and their evolution.
  • Examination of the Center for Open Science's initiatives, including the TOP Factor database and open science badges.

Main Results:

  • Open science indicators can be integrated as article-specific metadata.
  • The Center for Open Science actively promotes and tracks open science practices.
  • Open science badges demonstrate a measurable performance metric for open science.

Conclusions:

  • Integrating open science indicators as metadata fields represents a logical progression in scientometrics.
  • This integration can significantly enhance the depth and scope of scientific impact analysis.
  • Further research and pilot studies are necessary to explore the complexities and potential of this undertaking.
