Title
An observation framework for retracted publications in multiple dimensions.
Abstract
To describe the impact of the retracted publications on the scientific community more comprehensively, this paper introduces the impact of retracted publications on technology. It establishes a multi-dimensional observation framework for retracted publications from four dimensions, including scientific impact, technological impact, funding impact and Altmetric impact, and proposes the use of a novel multidimensional bubble diagram to illustrate the multidimensional data. This study also proposes a two-dimensional classification of retraction reasons to help sort retracted papers, the results of which show the correlated features of those papers. This paper takes all the retracted publications from two top biomedical journals as a sample, uses the observation framework to analyze them and describes the impact of these papers from multiple dimensions. The results show that compared with one-dimensional analysis, this observation framework reveals the impact characteristics of retracted publications more comprehensively.
