- Abstract
- This study examines the differences in the proportion of non-English language citations given to English language articles published in open access and traditional library and information science journals. It compares the average percentage of foreign language citations to total citations between 207 open access articles and 196 traditional articles published between 2011 and 2012. An independent, two-tailed t-test found no statistically significant difference between the foreign language citation percentages of open access and traditional articles. An analysis of variance also found no significant difference in the proportion of citations given by each non-English language according to journal type.
