Abstract

A top journal is defined as a journal which is within the first 10% of journals ranked by impact factor in the SCI list, within a particular scientific subfield, for the year considered. Journals which were for 11 or more years within the first 10% were considered top journals during the whole period even though they were not within the first 10%, in some of the years covered by this study.In the period from 1980 to 2000, the Croatian scientists affiliated with research institutions within the Republic of Croatia, published a total of 13,021 papers in journals covered by the Science Citation Index (SCI). Out of these papers, only 2,720 were published in top journals. This amounts to 20.9% of the total, and this is below the world average of 29.5% for the same scientific subfields. Out of the above 2,720 publications, 1,250 (46.0%) were published in international collaboration, and 335 (12.3%) papers were Meeting Abstracts. The Croatian scientists were most productive in the main scientific fields: Physics (875 papers; 32.2%), Medicine (786 papers; 28.9%), and Chemistry (580 papers; 21.3%). All others fields, taken together, comprised 17.6% of the total scientific output. Of the 786 medical papers, 290 were Meeting Abstracts, or 36.9% of the total output in the field of Medicine, and medical Meeting Abstracts represent 86.6% of the total number of abstracts (335). Articles (2,060) represent 75.7% of the total Croatian scientific output in top journals.
