[Incidence of the standardization of scientific journals in the transfer and evaluation of scientific information].
OBJECTIVE
I analyze the repercussions of standardization of scientific publications in general, and of journals in particular, on the processes of scientific information transfer, diffusion and evaluation.


METHODS
Standardization facilitates the work of all agents in the primary (authors, publishers and readers) and secondary communication systems (librarians, information scientifics). Compliance with standards influences the presence of journal in bibliographic databases and de quality of bibliometric studies. Standardization thus has repercussions in the evaluation of science.
