Authorship SCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

ABSTRACT

Objective:

To review the terminologies and applications of Open Science taxonomy to build a more comprehensive version that represents the knowledge surrounding the subject in accordance with the current scenario of scientific communication and the recommendations of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).

Method:

This is a qualitative investigation with an exploratory focus. The first step taken was the revision of existing taxonomies by 12 researchers1 1 This investigation has involved the members of two groups: The first group of investigators consisted of the authors of this article, who analyzed previous taxonomies and proposed a new one to be evaluated by independent experts (also investigators, but not authors of this article). In this document, the term “investigators” will be used to identify the group of authors, and the term “Expert” will pertain to the group of outside experts who evaluated the proposed taxonomy. , who met weekly for conceptual and epistemological discussions related to Open Science and methodological and procedural definitions for the realization of the study.

Results:

As a result of these discussions, a proposed taxonomy was developed for revision by experts. Evaluation of this taxonomy was carried out using a questionnaire with open questions about each main axis of the taxonomy, which was sent to 68 specialists. A total of 21 responses that analyzed the modeling and exposition of terms in the proposed taxonomy were received. The final taxonomy has 10 main-level facets and a total of 96 labels.

Conclusions:

the responses of the experts brought to light a panorama consistent with UNESCO recommendations and the current scenario of Open Science.
