Abstract

A pesar de la relevancia de internet y las redes sociales entre la población más joven, contamos con pocos estudios que se centren en el uso del catalán en estos contextos. En este artículo, llevamos a cabo un análisis cualitativo de la situación del catalán en TikTok y Twitch, dos plataformas que han crecido de forma significativa en los últimos años. Twitch ofrece la posibilidad de crear contenidos de ámbitos específicos en catalán, mientras que en TikTok el uso de varios hashtags, pero especialmente #estiktokat, aseguran la indexicalidad de los vídeos. Estos resultados demuestran que los creadores de contenidos en catalán participan activamente en estas plataformas y que han desarrollado estrategias para asegurar que se crea contenido en catalán y que es accesible para otros usuarios.

Quality index

Bibliometric impact. Analysis of the contribution and dissemination channel

The work has been published in the journal Caracol, Q3 Agency Scopus (SJR), its regional focus and specialization in Linguistics and Language, give it significant recognition in a specific niche of scientific knowledge at an international level.

From a relative perspective, and based on the normalized impact indicator calculated from the Field Citation Ratio (FCR) of the Dimensions source, it yields a value of: 3.88, which indicates that, compared to works in the same discipline and in the same year of publication, it ranks as a work cited above average.

Impact and social visibility

From the perspective of influence or social adoption, and based on metrics associated with mentions and interactions provided by agencies specializing in calculating the so-called "Alternative or Social Metrics," we can highlight as of 2025-07-19:

  • The use, from an academic perspective evidenced by the Altmetric agency indicator referring to aggregations made by the personal bibliographic manager Mendeley, gives us a total of: 2.
  • The use of this contribution in bookmarks, code forks, additions to favorite lists for recurrent reading, as well as general views, indicates that someone is using the publication as a basis for their current work. This may be a notable indicator of future more formal and academic citations. This claim is supported by the result of the "Capture" indicator, which yields a total of: 4 (PlumX).

With a more dissemination-oriented intent and targeting more general audiences, we can observe other more global scores such as:

  • The Total Score from Altmetric: 3.55.
  • The number of mentions on the social network X (formerly Twitter): 4 (Altmetric).

It is essential to present evidence supporting full alignment with institutional principles and guidelines on Open Science and the Conservation and Dissemination of Intellectual Heritage. A clear example of this is:

  • The work has been submitted to a journal whose editorial policy allows open Open Access publication.
  • Additionally, the work has been submitted to a journal classified as Diamond in relation to this type of editorial policy.
