Abstract: Develops a bibliometric profile of four information science journals; analyzes data on acknowledgments to funding sources, authors' nationalities, and the citedness of published articles; and explores the relationships among these variables. Citedness appears to be associated with journal of publication and an author's nationality, but not with funding. (Author/LRW)
