• Uses Web of Science data• Tool for analysing institutional productivity and benchmarking• Global benchmarks, Customised reports and InCites system

reports, Institutional Profiles and InCites API

From: InCites website https://clarivate.com/products/incites/

What is InCites?

Uses include:• Research engagement and impact – through citation analysis• Benchmarking and comparing performance• Promoting internal and external collaboration – and discovering

potential collaborators• Identify and promote areas of strength and specialisation

Today: finding potential collaborators

Coverage and limitations of Web of Science and InCites

4 methods for finding collaborators:

• Prolific authors in your field (Web of Science)

• Authors of the most highly cited papers in your field (Web of Science)

• Authors of papers that cite your work (Web of Science)

• Use CNCI in InCites to understand an author’s impact within a topic

Web of Science/InCites coverage

Journal selection criteria

Presenter
Presentation Notes
Not comprehensive, Scopus may be better for your area as it indexes a different list of journals Significant limiting factors – must be an electronic journal (some are still print only), English language title and abstract available (even if a LOTE publication), peer-reviewed content as well as description of the peer review process, Self-citation (acknowledging differences between specialist journals that will self-cite at a higher rate than journals with a wider scope), look at percentage of citations from the editorial board members and author self-citation Editorial board and author diversity – except where it is a regional journal, also not all from the same institution WoS compares the journal’s citations to other journals in the subject area, eg comparing how many times the editors are cited in their own journal compared to other journals in the same subject area Overall, it favours established journals, new journals don’t have this kind of track record. They started the Emerging Sources Citation Index in 2015 to cover this gap.

• All journals are assigned at least one subject category• Comparisons are made within that category – journal level and article level• Journal level – impact factor, rankings, citation patterns when evaluating

for inclusion• Article – other articles published in that subject in the same year,

determines if a highly cited or hot paper

• View the subject categories in Journal Citation Reports or the View Journal Impact link

• Note the large multidisciplinary categories eg PLoS One, is only ‘Multidisciplinary Sciences’, one of 64 journals in that category including Nature and Science

Journal subject categories

Presenter
Presentation Notes
Demo JCR – PloS One and how to look at journals in the Multidisciplinary Sciences category Categories change over time Categories can be different in other tools eg in Scopus, depending on how the category is defined and how many journals are in it

Access Web of Science and InCitesfrom the Library homepage

Access InCites through OneSearch on the Library homepage….

1. Find prolific authors in your field

Web of Science1. Search for your topic2. Use Analyze Results to show the top authors (need <10,000 results)3. To view an author’s papers, including their institutional affiliation, hover

over the box and click View Records

Presenter
Presentation Notes
Example topic – gravitational waves Over 20,000 results (need to get it to less than 10,000 for Analyze Results), limit to Astronomy Astrophysics and 2009 – present Analyze results – choose authors, increase number of results to 25 To see the articles, hover over the box and click View Records (use browser back button to return to results)
Page 8: Library Research and Using data to find collaborators with … · 2018. 10. 19. · Library Research and Teaching Support SMCE Seminar July 2017 Sarah Cesare Sarah.cesare@uwa.edu.au.

2. Authors of the most highly cited papers in your field

Web of Science - core collection

Papers published in the last 10 years that are receiving the most citations (top 1%) when compared to peer papers (same field, same publication year)

Papers published in the last 2 years that are receiving the most citations (top 0.1%) in the most recent two-month period when compared to peer papers (same field, same publication date)

Highly Cited and Hot Papers appear towards the top of the Refine Results panel.

Presenter
Presentation Notes
Same set of results (navigate back to the 7000+ results) – Sort by Times Cited (link, not in the drop-down menu) Also filter on the left to highly cited and hot papers Hot papers – note that 50% of these are open access…

3. Authors of papers that cite your work

Web of Science

Search for your works

Citations of one work: click on Times Cited to view the citing articles and view authors and their affiliations.

Citations of multiple works: Filter the results to the publications you want to analyse and click Create Citation Report.

In the Citing Articles box click Analyze, then choose Authors from the left menu

Presenter
Presentation Notes
If a common name, just find one paper then link through to the others Demo Harvey Millar? Good example of name issues at the same time Search as Millar H Third result (the highly cited) is him See the Highly Cited paper being cited by other papers that are also highly cited

4. Authors with the most citation impact

InCites

Note: you will need to register for an InCites account, if you already have one for EndNote these credentials are the same.

Find research in your field of interest, then export that dataset to InCites.CNCI gives an indication of each author’s impact in your topic.

CNCI: • indicator of impact • normalised for subject focus, age, and document type• CNCI value of one represents performance at par with world average,

>1 is above average, <1 is below average, 2 is twice the world average• How it is calculated

Presenter
Presentation Notes
Demo: WoS search – gravitational waves as a topic (InCites can handle up to 50,000 results in a set, filter if necessary) Save to InCites (log in if needed) and name it – best to include the date. Will receive an email when the dataset is ready – I find this usually only takes a minute or two New tab - Access InCites (search for it in OneSearch, might take you straight to Journal Citation Reports – go to InCites at the top and login) People Explorer Change the dataset to Gravitational waves Thresholds – open up Web of Science Documents – change the 0 to a 5 (ie minimum of 5 documents) Click on Update Results. Remember, filters are applied to subsequent searches – good idea to get into the habit of clearing filters before each new search. Change the Bar Graph to Web of Science documents ,scroll down to look at the numbers. Use the settings cog to make sure that it includes affiliation, Web of Science documents, Times Cited and CNCI (explore other areas if time, CNCI is in Impact. See who the prolific authors are – sort by number of documents or number of citations Sort by CNCI to see which have the most impact in their area of research. Remember, 1 is world average. Note research groups might appear with the same number of documents, citations and CNCI. Can also access the article in WoS from here.

Using the data

Web of Science:• Records can be exported to EndNote• Can also export to other file formats, such as BibTeX, HTML, Plain

Text, or Tab-delimited – use this with Excel

InCites:• Export data table using the Export button • Default is csv, works with Excel• Can also export the visualisation and save it• Save Tile – from your dashboard, you can share the report (ie all the

tiles on your dashboard) with others with an InCites account

Presenter
Presentation Notes
In Save tile, name it, give a subtitle if needed. Click on Dashboard to save it there. Then navigate to the dashboard
