10 Scopus

11 Scopus at a glance An eye on global research. Scopus, the largest abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed literature, features smart tools to track, analyze and visualize research. Scopus delivers the most comprehensive overview of the world's research output in the fields of science, technology, medicine, social sciences and Arts & Humanities. As research becomes increasingly global, interdisciplinary and collaborative, you can make sure that critical research from around the world is not missed.

Scopus broad global content means researchers don t miss relevant research 55M records from 21,912 serial titles and 65,000 books 21.3M pre 1996 records 33.

14 What? Coverage years Number of articles Pre-1996 cited references expansion program Pre-1996, going back to 1970 We estimate 8M+ articles will be (re-) processed to include cited references Why? - Improve the completeness and coverage of back files in Scopus - Enhance the relevancy and visibility of archival content in Scopus - Measure the impact of pre-1996 for both individual assessment and (historical) trend analysis. - Increase the accuracy of Scopus Author Profiles for older researchers and decision makers. Which Archives Archives from all major publishers that have digital archives available All subject areas included When? Development of required systems and processes has already started The first content with pre-1996 cited references will be visible in Q Completed by 2016 when >8M articles from all major publishers have been loaded

18 Metrics in Scopus IPP SNIP and SJR H-index

19 There is no single best indicator that could accommodate all facets of the new reality of bibliometrics. - Wolfgang Glänzel, Head of bibliometrics group Professor at KU Leuven, Belgium

Impact Factor Originated by Eugene Garfield in 1955 evolving into Science Citation Index in 1961.

20 Impact Factor Originated by Eugene Garfield in 1955 evolving into Science Citation Index in Approximates the average number of citations per recent paper for a journal Calculated yearly starting from 1975

21 IPP-Impact per Publication Measures the ratio of citations in a year to scholarly papers published in the previous three years. 3 years considered to be an optimal time period to accurately measure citations in most subject fields Not normalized for subject field- when normalized it becomes SNIP

SNIP-Source Normalised Impact per Paper Developed by Henk Moed - CWTS (Centre for Science and Technology Studies)-Leiden University Measures the average citation impact of the publications of a

22 SNIP-Source Normalised Impact per Paper Developed by Henk Moed - CWTS (Centre for Science and Technology Studies)-Leiden University Measures the average citation impact of the publications of a journal, correcting for the differences in citation practices between scientific fields and therefore allowing for more accurate between-field comparisons of citation impact SNIP is field normalized, dependent on likelihood of citation in subject field of source

23 SNIP: Source-normalized impact per paper All 20K journals have a Source-normalized impact per paper (SNIP) measuring contextual citation impact by weighting citations per subject field - Peer-reviewed papers only - Field s frequency and immediacy of citation - Database coverage - Journal s scope and focus - Measured relative to database median impact per publication (IPP) Citation potential in its subject field Journal IPP Cit. Pot. SNIP (IPP/Cit. Pot.) Inventiones Mathematicae Molecular Cell

24 SJR- SCImago Journal Rank Developed by Felix de Moya, CSIC (Spanish Research Council) Prestige metric- not all citations are the same Citations are weighted depending on the status of the source they come from

25 SJR- SCImago Journal Rank Life Sciences journal Arts & Humanities journal High impact, lots of citations One citation = low value Low impact, few on citations One citation = high value SJR normalizes for differences in citation behaviour between subject fields

26 Altmetric

27 Integration of article level metrics into Scopus Mendeley readership Statistics shows how many times Mendeley users have downloaded a specific article to their libraries. Altmetric is way to see all of the social or mainstream media mentions gathered for a particular paper as well as reader counts on popular reference managers

28 H-Index Originated by Jorge Hirsch in 2005 A group of papers has index h if h of the papers have at least h citations each, and the other papers have no more than h citations each. Attempts to measure both the productivity and impact of the published work of a scholar

29 An example from Iran
