The editors and editorial board members of the journal previously held editorial positions at Journal of Informetrics, from which they resigned in early 2019. Quantitative Science Studies was established in early 2019.

Applications of preexisting methods to a given domain are considered only if they present novel contributions to the understanding of science. Studies that propose or test novel methodological approaches are also considered. With a degree in Quantitative, Research, Evaluation and Measurement you can approach your career with an in-depth understanding of quantitative methods. Empirical studies of the humanities and social sciences are considered within scope. Quantitative research is the methodology which researchers use to test theories about peoples attitudes and behaviors based on numerical and statistical. Science is defined broadly as systematic inquiry that contributes to knowledge generation.

Submissions are encouraged from a range of disciplinary orientations, as long as science remains the object of inquiry. Quantitative research, in contrast to qualitative research, deals with data that are numerical or that can be converted into numbers. Emphasis is placed on studies that provide insight into the system of science, general laws of scientific work, scholarly communication, science indicators, science policy, and the scientific workforce. It publishes theoretical and empirical research on science and the scientific workforce. Our researchers use the latest scientific techniques and advanced data analysis methods to predict the movements in global financial. Quantitative Science Studies is the official open access journal of the International Society for Scientometrics and Informetrics (ISSI).
