URBIZAGASTEGUI-ALVARADO, Rubén. El modelo de difusión de innovaciones de Rogers en la bibliometría mexicana. Palabra clave [online]. 2019, vol.9, n.1, pp.71-71. ISSN 1853-9912.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/18539912e071.

The objective of this article is to explore the model of diffusion of the innovations suggested by Rogers applying it to the producers of the literature published on the “metrics” in Mexico. As units of analysis were taken each of the articles published in academic journals, book chapters, and papers presented at conferences that addressed some of the aspects of metric studies or the applications of these techniques in a discipline or subfield in Mexico or by Mexicans who published documents on this matter outside of Mexico. The period covered ranges from the first papers published at the beginning of the 1970s up to December 2017. 690 documents were produced and published by 1410 different authors in the research period. The theory of the diffusion of innovations helps to accompany the historical development of Mexican bibliometrics by adequately identifying its innovators, initial adopters, and other categories of the theory of the diffusion of innovations of Rogers.

Keywords : Bibliometrics; Scietometrics; Difussion of innovations; Mexico.
