[目的/意义]altmetrics指标是对传统文献计量指标的补充,但相关理论和实践还处于起步阶段。本文旨在总结和分析altmetrics工具在数据质量和可靠性方面存在的一些问题。[方法/过程]在概述altmetrics工具的发展基础上,系统梳理altmetrics的基本工具和聚合工具及现阶段存在的相关问题。[结果/结论]总结altmetrics工具在数据覆盖广度和强度、数据跟踪和搜集方式、上下文和人口统计特征分析、数据的甄别和处理4方面存在的相关问题,进一步提出altmetrics及ALMs数据应该遵循公开、透明和可审计3个基本原则。
[Purpose/significance] Altmetrics is the complement to traditional bibliometrics, while its relative theory and practice is still at its early stage. This paper hopes to summarize and analyze the issues concerning its data quality and reliability.[Method/process] The paper briefly introduces the development of altmetrics tools, systematically summarizes its basic and aggregated tools, and discusses the relevant issues.[Result/conclusion] It summarizes four aspects issues of altmetrics tools, including coverage and intensity of data, tracking and collecting ways of data, analysis of context and demography, identifying and processing of data. It further suggests that altmetrics and ALM data should adhere to three principles of open, transparent and auditable.
