Comparative investigation of frequency and strength of motives toward referencing. The reference threshold model

Comparative investigation of frequency and strength of motives of authors toward referencing proves that references-citations can be used for exploring information links between items referencing and referenced. Asreferencing can be assumed as apeer evaluation process resulted in referencing some papers and neglecting others, citations obtained can be applied for assessing international impact of scientific publication activity.
