Resumo: | Eponyms occur in several areas of knowledge and in the scientific field they are part of the science reward system, as they permanently signal the authors' original contribution to the advancement of knowledge in their areas. In this context, the objective of this article was to elaborate and apply a model of analysis of eponyms present in scientific articles in the field of Bibliometrics. This is an exploratory and descriptive research with a qualitative-quantitative methodology and anchored in bibliometric and content analyses. The corpus of analysis consisted of eponyms (n=246) selected from articles (n=104) published in five journals in the field of Information Science. The main results indicated that the most frequent eponyms were the three classical laws of Bibliometrics (Bradford's Law, Lotka's Law and Zipf's Law), followed by eponymous expressions from other areas of knowledge, such as Mathematics and Statistics, as well as the occurrence of obliteration by incorporation arising from the non-citation of the original works that originated the eponyms. Among the eponymists (n=203) one stood out for citing the majority (n=21) of the eponymized (n=38). Thus, by choosing a theoretical framework based on the Sociology of Science and Information Science, the analysis model developed and applied to a set of scientific texts shed light on the understanding of the reward system of science through the study of eponymy in the field of Bibliometrics. |

Nesse contexto, o objetivo desse artigo foi elaborar e aplicar um modelo de análise de epônimos presentes em artigos científicos do campo da Bibliometria. A pesquisa é do tipo exploratória e descritiva com metodologia quali-quantitativa ancorada nas análises bibliométrica e de conteúdo. O corpus de análise foi composto por epônimos (n=246) selecionados em artigos (n=104) publicados em cinco periódicos da área de Ciência da Informação. Os principais resultados indicaram que os epônimos mais frequentes foram as três leis clássicas da Bibliometria (Lei de Bradford, Lei de Lotka e Lei de Zipf), seguidas por expressões eponímicas de outras áreas de conhecimento, tais como a Matemática e a Estatística, bem como a ocorrência da obliteração por incorporação advinda da não citação dos trabalhos originais que originaram os epônimos. Dentre os eponimizadores (n=203) um se destacou por citar a maioria (n=21) dos eponimizados (n=38). Assim, ao eleger um referencial teórico fundamentado na Sociologia da Ciência e na Ciência da Informação, o modelo de análise elaborado e aplicado em um conjunto de textos científicos lançou luzes para a compreensão do sistema de recompensas da ciência por meio do estudo da eponímia no campo da Bibliometria.Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Faculdade de Biblioteconomia e Comunicação, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ciência da Informação (Porto Alegre/RS)2023-03-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por Paresapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/EmQuestao/article/view/12548910.19132/1808-5245.29.125489Em Questão; Vol. 29 (2023); 125489Em Questão; Vol. 29 (2023); 125489Em Questão; v. 29 (2023); 1254891808-52451807-8893reponame:Em Questão (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSporhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/EmQuestao/article/view/125489/88013Copyright (c) 2022 Maria Cristina Piumbato Innocentini Hayashihttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessHayashi, Maria Cristina Piumbato Innocentini 2023-12-07T14:06:54Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/125489Revistahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/emquestao/PUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/EmQuestao/oaiemquestao@ufrgs.br||emquestao@ufrgs.br1808-52451807-8893opendoar:2023-12-07T14:06:54Em Questão (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false |
