English abstract

This paper presents the findings of a bibliometric study of Journal of Intellectual Property Rights. A total of 332 articles carrying 1,541 journal citations during the period of 2002-2010 were analyzed. 471 authors contributed articles during the nine years. Due to the absolute domination of solo contributions, the visibility of collaborative contribution was found remarkably less. About one third of the total publications received citations, more than half of the cited articles carried just 1 citation, one fourth got 2 citations, and the rest received citations between 3 to 9 times. The average number of citations against all published articles was found to be 0.66 per article. Moreover, it was discovered that self-citations among authors constituted 22.01% of the total cited scholarly papers. The top five cited journals were Journal of Intellectual Property Rights, European Intellectual Property Review, Research Policy, World Patent Information, Trademark Reporter, and Current Science.
