HILARIO, Carla Mara; MARTINEZ-AVILA, Daniel  e  CABRINI GRACIO, Maria Cláudia. El autor de correspondencia en estudios métricos de la información: un análisis de la coautoría en Journal of informetrics. Palabra clave [online]. 2020, vol.10, n.1, pp.104-104. ISSN 1853-9912.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/18539912e104.

The aim of this paper is to analyze the characteristics of the corresponding author (CA) in the area of Information Metric Studies. More specifically, we analyze the role of the CA in the articles published in co-authorship in the Journal of informetrics (JOI) in 2016, from two different perspectives: i) the bibliometric characteristics of the CAs; ii) the understanding of the role of the CA by the authors listed in the papers. We carried out the analysis in two stages: 1) identification of the percentage of participation in the main phases of the development of the article and the h index of the CAs by type of authorship, categorizing the contributions of the authors using the information from the JOI submission forms; 2) qualitative evaluation of the role of the CA according to the understanding of the articles' authors, using as a basis the responses of a questionnaire sent to the authors (Hilário, 2020). The results of the analysis include the bibliometric indicators related to the CA by type of authorship (double, triple, quadruple or more): position of the CA in the line of authorship; total percentage of contribution by the CA in the main phases of the development of research; h index; as well as the understanding of the 30 authors who answered the questionnaire regarding the role of the correspondence author in the development of research.
