Bibliometric Approach

Throughout this work, the general characteristics of the Maghreb Journal of Documentation and Information have been introduced since its’ establishment in 1983 to 2020. The Maghreb Journal of Documentation and Information is published annually by the Higher Institute of Documentation. The researchers have used the bibliometric approach in order to quantify the frequency of publications and to review the percentage of articles’ productivity and their distribution during the years of publications. The study found that there is an average of 447 articles published by 572 authors in 29 issues over a period of 24 years from the actual publications, without considering the years of interruption. It is worth to mention that the journal was resuming its activities and functions after each interruption, especially after the scientific events to publish their activities or after changing its directing members. Moreover, in order to clarify the direction of the journal and its editorial board, the bibliometric approach has also helped to extract the sub-topics presented by the publications, as it is the only journal specialised in the information science in Tunisia. In addition, besides studying of the linguistic writing choices of the authors; the study focused on the Influence of the French language in writings to understand the general cultural and social framework that made the Arabic language ranked as a second language in number of publications.

This study investigates the transfer relationship between first language (L1) (Arabic) proficiency and second language (L2) (English) performance in writing skills of a Saudi bilingual graduate student. Several studies have discussed the transfer issues in language learning, yet a few of them focus on the transfer relationships between Arabic and English language writing skills. Regardless of the huge linguistic distinction between the English language and Arabic language, it is presumed that Arabic and English writing skills positively, negatively, and neutrally transferred in a dynamic relationship. The researcher has conducted observations and interviews with Fatimah, the participant of this study, and analyzed her texts in both languages to illustrate how dynamic relationships between L1 and L2 in the composition skills is and what the effects of language transfer in the composition skills between L1 and L2 are. The data were collected and analyzed in January 2018. The results demonstrate effects of L2 on L1 as the following; first, a reverse or backward transfer implemented in three ways; positive, negative, and neutral transfer. Second, they indicate that there is a dynamic relationship between second language performance and first language proficiency in composition particularly. It is hoped that this knowledge will assist students in being aware of the effects of L2 on L1 specifically in composition and taking the advantages to accelerate the rate of language learning. It is recommended for future research to conduct studies in bilingual writings to investigate how L1 could be a resource and advocate of language development.

Strategic Goal

Ansaq continues working towards becoming a solid scientific and global research-publishing platform, while contributing to translating the strategic goal of Qatar University in the field of scientific research. The QU strategic goal aspires that “the University should excel in focused, relevant, measurable, influential and collaborative research, and should be keen on finding solutions, and pushing towards progress in knowledge and innovation.” The University’s tireless efforts in academic higher education and scientific research have qualified it to occupy advanced positions in Arab, regional and international classifications. Additionally, it recently bagged second place in the Times Higher Education classification (THE) for Arab universities, 2021. Such ranking would not have been achieved without the presence of this insightful vision and ambitious strategy, and working with determination to implement it. Ansaq is pleased to present to its honorable readers and researchers this new issue, which contains six research papers covering different knowledge areas of Arabic language sciences and literature, such as grammar, rhetoric, literature, novel and others; in addition to a book review. Thus, it strengthens bridges of communication among scholars and researchers in Arabic language sciences and literature from East, West, North and South of the world, enabling them to explore knowledge emanating from different countries, and expanding the circle of knowledge exchange across the four directions of the compass. Without the continuous support of various parties at Qatar University and its affiliates, the journal would not have published this edition, and the previous editions as well. This support starts with the journal’s editorial board and their untiring work through the stages of the research journey; from reception until publication, the Languages, Media and Translation Sector at the College of Arts and Sciences, and the members of the Arabic Language Department. Furthermore, Qatar University Press remains to be the main partner of Ansaq, and the permanent supporter of the journal’s work and its publications. This new edition of Ansaq has been published after launching the electronic platform of the journal on Qatar University website, which enables automation of work in the journal at every stage. Researchers can upload their research directly through this platform and follow the peer-review procedures, and how they progress until publication. The launching of this e-platform is the result of diligent and hard work for more than a year led by Qatar University Press, in cooperation with the University Library. All of these steps ultimately lead to translating the strategic goal of Qatar University in terms of scientific research, developing it to serve the scientific community, and contribute to the development of knowledge that ultimately serves societies, or should do so.

The article summarizes the author’s report at a discussion organized by the editorial board of the Istoricheskaya Informatika journal that addressed the book “What is Digital History?” by Salmi H. published in 2020. The book is named a manual for students thus justifying the opinion to consider the material presented to readers as representing a set of the most established positions and opinions in the field of digital history. The book discusses such issues as the time of digital history birth, its definition, subject field, functions as well as the importance for the widespread dissemination of historical knowledge in society. The author criticizes the concept of prerequisites for digital history birth outlined by H. Salmi which completely ignores the History and Computing movement in Western Europe and North America which played an important role in the formation of Russian historical information science and which was the discussion panel where many digital history issues were raised and resolved. The structure of the book is discussed as well. The article emphasizes the author's viewpoint on the importance of geographic information systems and technologies for historical research which he clearly underestimates. It is concluded that historical information science and digital history are different spheres of interdisciplinarity.

The Arabic language is often categorized as a second language that is hard to learn and practiced as a means of communication. Although the government has made the Arabic language as the subject of elementary school through college, it does not make the Arabic language acquisition is easier and practicable for students to learn it. The level of language acquisition of each person is different; some can easily absorb the new language. This is because language acquisition is based on a natural process beneath the conscious. Therefore, by using descriptive qualitative research methods, this study aims to find the appropriate strategies for improving Arabic language acquisition based on student personality. The result of this study proves that extrovert or introvert personalities have different approaches to language acquisition. Extroverts tend to be more open, while introverts tend to be more closed. Extrovert personalities with more open tendencies have a more spontaneous language acquisition pattern, whereas introvert personalities with more inclined tendencies have a more disciplined and structured language acquisition pattern.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the bibliometric characteristics of papers published in a high impact journal World Psychiatry during the period 2006-2015. Design/methodology/approach The data for this study were obtained from Thompson Reuters’ “Web of Science”. Publication details were extracted for the journal title “World Psychiatry”. This study covers authorship patterns, annual growth, impact factors, document types, top contributors, international collaborations, highly cited papers and keyword analyses. Software programs such as “Histcite”, “intcoll.exe”, “Pajek” and “Leximancer” were used to analyze the publications. Findings More than half of the publications were by editorial materials and number of publications from low and middle income countries is very low when compared to proportion of editorial board members. Almost 40 per cent of papers came from the USA and editorial board members had considerable number of papers. Kings College London led the institutions. Originality/value Analysis of high impact journals in the field of psychiatry has been carried out in a very few. Hence, the results of this study will be useful to compare with other journals.
