EMERGING SOURCES CITATION INDEX

Emerging Sources Citation Index New index within the Web of Science Core Collection No additional cost to all subscribers of SCI, SSCI & ACI Peer reviewed research of scholarly interest Meets our ethical standards (non predatory) Article meta-data in English Content available electronically (PDF or XML) 3,000 journals currently indexed Growing to 5,000 journals over the next year Journal acceptance rate of 63% http://ip-science.thomsonreuters.com/mjl/ to view Master Journal List Same feature set and indexing standards as other Core Collection editions Full cover to cover indexing of all content

ESCI in other products Not in JCR ESCI Journals do not receive Impact Factors Citations from ESCI journals will be included in IF calculations Not in ESI ESCI content will not be included in ESI calculations Not in Incites B&A Future analytics development will be undertaken to include ESCI coverage in ways that are appropriate for market needs. ESCI will be part of WoS APIs (Lite and Premium)

INTEGRATION OF JCR METRICS AND HIGHLY CITED INDICATORS

Integration of JCR data in Web of Science Click on a journal title to view journal performance information from JCR (SCI & SSCI only)

Integration of ESI Top Paper indicators in Web of Science CC Instantly discover the producers of high impact research

ARTICLE LEVEL USAGE METRICS

Why count usage? Citation activity can lag behind the publication of an article New items may not have been around long enough to accumulate citation activity. Many disciplines show little or no citation activity within a year of publication Items in traditionally slow to cite disciplines Math, Civil Engineering, Nursing, Economics, and other disciplines where research accumulates citations slowly, will benefit most from a recognition of “interest” Items in traditionally low citation disciplines Romance languages, Rhetoric, Architectural History, etc. A measure of “usage” on the platform can show “interest” in a publication or a topic prior to, or in the absence of, citation activity.

What do we count? Counts of reasonable, intentional user actions that indicate user interest in an item on the WoS platform. 1. Click through from records to full-text Full Record, or Results Summary list 2. Exports to bibliographic management tools, or into formats for later import into bibliographic management tools Exports from Full Record, Results Summary, Marked List Not Counted Batch operations that could indicate analysis of large sets of data (exports to InCites, etc.) API usage Usage activities generated by “bots”

Usage Count - Since 2013 Usage Count - Last 180 Days What do we display? Usage Count - Since 2013 Usage Count - Last 180 Days Why these time periods? We began counting on Feb 1, 2013. All counts for all data began on this day. Last 180 Days is a broad enough time window to show a positive count of usage for most items.

Usage Counts – Where to find them on WoS Sort by Usage Counts. Counts display when sort option is chosen. Full Usage Count view can be opened and closed.

How do the counts change? LAST 180 DAYS 17 13 3 80 Days 20 Days 180 Days 0 Days SINCE 2013 17 18 80 Days 20 Days 180 Days 0 Days -usage of item

Usage Counts (the fine print) Counts will be updated daily Results Summary page can be sorted by either count Last 180 Day usage is a rolling count It can go up, down, or stay the same during the 180 day period Counts are “unified” on WoS platform Usage of record in one dataset counts for all versions of the record Counts will be displayed on Full Record and Search Results Summary Counts can be exported from the Marked List (field tags = U1, U2) Counts are not yet exportable to EndNote or available in the WoS API Due to technical limitations, usage of data in Derwent Innovations Index is not counted

Are “bots” a problem? All counts are “cleansed” of bot activity What is considered at bot? Repetitive single actions Actions occurring at speeds that do not mirror normal human usage Repeated batch operation Single record usage activity that does not mirror normal, considered use of Web of Science data It usage activity looks/acts like a “bot” we consider it to be from a “bot” and all activity associated with that session will not be ‘counted’

Interest vs. Impact Usage Counts are indicative of Interest, not Impact. Citation Activity = Impact Usage Counts = Interest All counts are aggregated from ALL users of the WoS platform Counts are not “local usage” and are distinct from “Counter compliant” activities reported in Web of Science Usage Reports (WURS) WoS users are researchers and information professionals; their usage of data on the WoS platform can be said to be more significant than usage of items that are open to anyone on the Web

ResearcherID and ORCID integration

Incites Journal Citation Reports, 2015 data and new features

Journal Citation Reports Production 11, 365 journals 234 categories Science Edition: 8,778 journals in 171 categories Social Science Edition: 3,212 journals in 55 categories 239 journals receive 1st Impact Factor in 2015 18 Title Suppressions New Category : GREEN & SUSTAINABLE SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY Annual release (June) Represents journal performance data for 3,000 publishers from over 80 countries 1997 onwards online data Source of data: WOS CC SCI and SSCI No metrics for journals in Arts and Humanities

What’s new in Journal Citation Reports? 2015 metrics available 3 new metrics Journal Impact Factor Percentile Normalized Eigenfactor Score % Articles in Citable Items Open Access filter and badge Download Citing and Cited Journal Data tables Journal Relationships visualization also downloadable Simpler Year-to-Year Navigation Citable Items – filterable by document type

Source of Data The JCR builds profiles for journals indexed in: Science Citation Index Social Science Citation Index

Source of Data Quantitative analysis of Cited References: papers published in 2013/2014 for Impact Factor papers published 2015 for Immediacy Index All years (Citing and Cited Half life, total citations) Self Citations Source record from SCI or SSCI published in 2015

JCR Metrics and Indicators Journal Evaluation is not achieved with one metric alone JCR offers a wide range of indicators to build a more informed picture of journal performance JCR metrics are transparent, repeatable and easy to understand

New metrics % Articles in Citable Items: The percent of citable items for the current data year that are articles (vs. reviews). Normalized Eigenfactor Score: a value of 1 indicates average influence. A higher value indicates above average influence (eg. NE = 4, the journal is four times more influential than the average journal in JCR). New metrics found in the Key Indicators table on each journal’s profile: The % Articles in Citable Items is useful for understanding the proportion of a journal’s citable items that are original research articles (vs. reviews). Normalized Eigenfactor – the same underlying Eigenfactor calculation, but rescaled and normalized to an average value of 1. A score above 1 indicates above average influence across the journal network.

New metrics, cont. JIF Percentile: Impact Factor Percentile within the subject category. Located on each journal’s profile in the Rank area. The percentile of a journal within its assigned category based on its Impact Factor. Scaled from 1 to 100, higher percentile values indicate a higher Impact Factor in relation to peers. Useful as a measure for cross-category comparison. JIF Percentile – Found on each journal’s profile in the Rank area. The percentile of a journal within its assigned category based on its Impact Factor. Scaled from 1 to 100, higher percentile values indicate a higher Impact Factor in relation to peers. Useful as a measure for cross-category comparison.

Open Access filter and badge Filter JCR by journals that are classified as Open Access, meaning they are on the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ.org) list.

New Download Options New download options include the Citing and Cited Journal Data Table making analyses of a journal’s citing/cited network possible.

Year-to-Year Navigation From a journal’s profile page, it’s simpler to navigate to prior-year data. The Key Indicators table now features clickable data years – click the desired year to load that year’s data in the links below. This will display rank, citing and cited data, and journal relationships for the desired data year below.

Filter Citable Items by Document Type From a journal’s profile page, view the current year Citable Items in the Source Data table. The combined Article/Review count is clickable, allowing a view of the citable item document list. This list can now be refined by document type. Use this to see which articles and reviews are counted for the current data year.

Incites Essential Science Indicators  introduction, Who are the producers of the highest cited research?

Essential Science Indicators Data source Web of Science Core Collection SCI & SSCI 10 year rolling file Articles, reviews, proceedings papers & research notes Updated every 2 months Institution name unification consistent across TS services (organization enhanced in WOS CC) Identifies highly cited papers, authors, institutions, countries and journals 22 broad research fields Assignment to a discipline based on journal classification. Journals mapped to 22 broad research disciplines Download list from Help File Methodology for classification of papers from multidisciplinary journals http://archive.sciencewatch.com/about/met/classpapmultijour/

Research Fields Scope notes for each field: Help file Journals are assigned to ONE discipline Agricultural Sciences Biology & Biochemistry Chemistry Clinical Medicine Computer Science Ecology/Environment Economics & Business Engineering Geosciences Immunology Material Sciences Mathematics Microbiology Molecular Biology & Genetics Multidisciplinary Neuroscience & Behavior Pharmacology & Toxicology Physics Plant & Animal Science Psychology/Psychiatry Social Sciences, general Space Science ESI calculates rankings across 22 disciplines. Journals and papers are assigned to only one category. In the case of highly cited multidisciplinary journals like Science and Nature, category assignments are made for each article. Visit the website listed here for more information on classifying papers in multidisciplinary journals or to view scope notes for each ESI field.

Citation Percentile Data years examined Researchers 1% 10 Institutions Citation Thresholds Citation Percentile Data years examined Researchers 1% 10 Institutions Countries 50% Journals Highly Cited Papers Hot Papers 0.1% 2 Inclusion in ESI is dependent upon meeting certain citation thresholds. Only the most highly cited individuals, institutions, journals, countries and papers are included in ESI. To be included as a top researcher the total number of citations to a person’s published works must be in the top one percent when compared to the output of all other researchers working in the same field who have published in the last ten years. Each author listed on a paper is counted equally. Highly Cited: the total number of citations to a paper must be in the top one percent when compared to all other papers published in the same year in the same discipline. For the purposes of identifying highly cited papers, works are only compared to works published in the same year, for example, a 2005 paper would only be compared to other papers from 2005 in the same discipline. For hot papers, only papers published in the last two years are considered. “Hot Papers” are those papers that are in the top .1% for citations received in the last two month period when compared to peer papers.

Essential Science Indicators Uses Identify top researchers or institutions in specific disciplines Identify trends and emerging areas of research Evaluate potential employees, collaborators, reviewers and peers Who is publishing the ‘hottest’ research in a field? Can you think of any other uses of ESI data at your institution?

The citations are to papers published in most recent 10 years from SCI & SSCI. Citation Thresholds Plant & Animal Science Highly Cited Author (1%)= 487 Highly Cited Institution (1%)= 1888 Highly Cited Journal (50%)= 1744 Highly Cited Country (50%)= 997

10. Measuring Citation Performance How can we measure the performance of this paper? WOS CC provides us with the Times Cited count of this article How does this total compare to the field? Is this paper performing better than peer papers? We need a benchmark- go to ESI!

Identify the ESI Discipline Use the ESI journal list to find the journal and identify the ESI category to correctly compare papers in the same field SPINE is classified in ‘Neuroscience & Behaviour’

Field Baselines Field baselines are also know as Average Citation Counts for the ESI discipline and year. The average citation count for Neuroscience & Behaviour papers PY 2013 is 9.59 The articles citation performance (10 cites) is higher than the average for the field The baselines are updated from WOS CC every 2 months

View Percentile Citation Thresholds by Discipline and Published Year Using the percentiles we can measure the performance of a paper compared to peer papers. To be a Highly Cited Paper in Neuroscience & Behaviour PY 2013, a paper must receive over 64 cites. Our paper currently has 10, therefore it is not classified as a Highly Cited Paper at this point in time, but it may become Highly Cited later on. Using the % ranges, the paper is placed in the top 50% of its field, on achieving more than 6 citations but less than 14.
