Brazilian Research Output in Education from 2007 to 2016

This dataset has been used to analyze publication practices of Brazilian researchers in Education in three different periods: [2007, 2009], [2010, 2012], [2013, 2016]. The dataset is composed of 4249 records, each of them containing information about a scientific journal in which faculty and students of Brazilian graduate programs in Education have published their work. In addition, each record also stores information about the number of articles published by the Brazilian Education community in each journal and its citation impact in a given period. The indicator chosen to represent the journal's citation impact has been Elsevier's SNIP. The records also store information from a Brazilian journal ranking system called Qualis, a classification made by the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES), a governmental institution whose purpose is to coordinate efforts for the improvement of the quality of faculty and staff in higher education. The dataset comprises information about the publications by Brazilian researchers in Education including articles published in journals that were and were not indexed by SCOPUS. The research questions that were answered with the analysis of the data were: 1) What was the distribution of publications in indexed and non-indexed journals in the three periods [2007, 2009], [2010, 2012], [2013, 2016]? 2) What was the distribution of publications according to country of publication of the journals? 3) What was the citation impact of the publications in indexed journals in the three different periods? 4) Were there discrepancies between the classification of journals in the CAPES Qualis system and the citation impact provided by SCOPUS' SNIP? It is important to highlight that the three periods considered in the dataset do not have the same number of years. This is because CAPES previously collected information for its evaluation of graduate programs every three years ([2007, 2009], [2010, 2012]), but it changed to four years in the last period ([2013, 2016]). The final structure of the records of the dataset is detailed below. - Publication period: year interval in which the article publications were made: 2007-2009; 2010-2012; 2013-2016 - ISSN_PRINT: unique identifier of the printed version of the journal in which the article publications were made - ISSN_ONLINE: unique identifier of the online version of the journal in which the article publications were made - Title: journal title - Number of artic
