Function Manage my profile allows you to correct information about personal data, registration information and the list of publications.

In the tab Publication List information about the list of your publications is presented. Please note the parameter Public will make your page data public (open) for everyone. By deselecting Public, the information on the page will be private. In addition, in this section there is an opportunity to avoid duplication of works in the list. To do this, use the function Allow Duplicates.

CREATE A LIST OF PUBLICATIONS (My Researcher Profile)

My Researcher Profile(My Research Profile) contains information about the profile of the researcher and allows you to create a list of your own publications. Using the button Add Publications the transition to the page containing the options for forming the list of own publications is carried out.

It is possible to search for your publications on the Web of Science. The Last Name and First Name fields are required. Review the resulting search results and mark those publications of which you are the author. Please note that new articles indexed by Web of Science will not be automatically linked to your ResearcherID, so the linking procedure will need to be repeated periodically.

Another way to find your publications is to search in EndNote Web... The search is carried out through EndNote Web according to the catalogs of various libraries, including the RSL.

If a list of your publications has already been generated in EndNote Web, click the Go to Endnote Web link. Use this link to migrate marked works from Endnote to Researcher ID.

Publication data can also be downloaded in RIS format. It is a format for presenting bibliographic data from EndNote, RefMan and other similar systems.

SEARCH RESEARCHERS (Search)

Finding Researchers is one of the important features of Researcher ID. You can find researchers in your areas of interest, provided they are Researcher ID registered.

To improve the search experience of Web of Science, Clarivate Analytics acquired the startup Kopernio. The Kopernio web browser extension finds full text documents. It works not only with Web of Science, but also with other search engines. Kopernio searches for the full text first in the organization's subscription, then in public repositories, and then in Google Scholar, with which Clarivate Analytics has a partnership agreement. If Kopernio finds the full text of the publication, a pdf document icon pops up at the bottom left of the page with the publication record, and when clicked, the user navigates to the document. Thus, with the help of this service, the number of full texts available to users is significantly increased, and, importantly, without violating copyright laws.

EndNote Online - bibliography tool

Another resource, EndNote Online, is available for free to Web of Science users. This tool allows you to save publications to your portfolio directly from the Web of Science interface, which the author plans to refer to in his work, and then select a template for the design of an article bibliography of a particular publisher. So for publication it will be easy to create a reference list in the required format.

Research Performance Tools

How can I use the Web of Science Core Collection to measure scientific performance? The resource allows you to build a citation report for any data set up to 10,000 documents and calculate the following indicators for it:

  • number of publications, including by year;
  • the number of citations, also with the possibility of breaking down by the years of publication of the citing publications;
  • the number of citations without taking into account self-citation;
  • average citation of one article;
  • Hirsch index.

ITMO University Citation Report in the Web of Science Core Collection

The system also shows the number of citing documents. As a rule, there are fewer of them than the total number of citations, since the same publication from the citing dataset can refer to several publications from the cited dataset. But these are primarily links that allow navigation between the citing and cited data set.

Identification of scientific organizations and authors using ResearcherID

Citation rates can be calculated for both an organization and individual authors. But here the question arises: how to assess the publication activity or citation rate, if both the organization and the author can be reflected in different ways in different journals and in different publications? This is a common problem for all abstract databases, and the owners of each of them solve it in their own way.

There are two stages in the compilation of organizational profiles: computer algorithms carry out the primary sorting of spelling options for the names of institutes and universities, and real people do the main work in order to eliminate algorithmic errors. To create profiles of organizations in Russia and the CIS, Clarivate Analytics representatives work directly with representatives of organizations and jointly check the spellings of their names. This, on the one hand, excludes accidental mixing of two different organizations (for example, Kazan Technical and Kazan Technological Universities or the Institute for System Research and the Institute for Systems Analysis), and on the other hand, it excludes the possibility of manipulation of numbers by the organization itself.

At the time of this writing, profiles of more than 600 Russian organizations have been created in the Web of Science Core Collection, and the company continues to work on creating new ones.

Comparison of ten Russian universities in terms of normalized average citations of publications

The situation with author profiles is much more complicated, since the number of authors in the world is several orders of magnitude greater than the number of organizations. A computer algorithm clusters authors based on surname and initials, subject areas in which they work, their organizational affiliation, years of work, and some other parameters.

But the resulting clusters still may not fully reflect the real number of publications of the scientist of interest, and here another free addition to Web of Science comes to the rescue, available both to subscribers of the system and to any external user - ResearcherID.

In this system, any author can register and receive his unique number, and then upload a list of his works directly from the Web of Science interface. After some time, the cluster of the author's publications in the Web of Science will come in line with his set of documents in ResearcherID, and the search will be possible both by the author's last name and by his unique ResearcherID.

Russian Science Citation Index database

Separately, mention should be made of the Russian Science Citation Index database on the Web of Science platform. This is a joint project of Clarivate Analytics and eLibrary, the operator of the Russian Science Citation Index. Within the framework of the project, a database of 770 most authoritative Russian scientific publications was formed, selected on the basis of bibliometric and expert assessment.

The database serves two purposes, according to Clarivate Analytics. First, this is how Russian science can be assessed using a more representative sample. Now, out of more than 20,000 publications indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection, 325 are Russian. Thus, in total, the array of Russian periodicals for analysis exceeds the bar of 1,000 journals. Secondly, the base contributes to the promotion of Russian scientific results abroad, because the audience of Web of Science users worldwide is more than 20 million people.

At the moment, this database is not included in the national subscription, and Russian organizations subscribe to it individually.

The Web of Science Core Collection and the Russian Science Citation Index are two different databases, but if you have access to both of them, you can search them simultaneously. Another nice feature: for any document, the Web of Science platform calculates the citation rate within the database to which it belongs, but for reference it also shows its citation rate in other databases. This allows, for example, to see which of the foreigners cites documents that are indexed only in the Russian Science Citation Index.

Journal Citation Reports Database and Journal Impact Factor

One cannot fail to mention one more system for authors - the Journal Citation Reports database. It includes data from Clarivate Analytics' annual journal citation experts, which calculate the most common indicator of a journal's importance - its impact factor.

As of summer 2018, this report is not included in the national subscription, but dozens of scientific organizations in Russia subscribe to it on their own.

The report allows you to filter journals by subject area of ​​interest in order to understand what place the journal occupies among similar publications in terms of the impact factor. Also, starting this year, you can analyze where citations come from for publications of a particular publication. If you subscribe to Journal Citation Reports, Web of Science Core Collection search results also allow you to view the impact factors of journals and the place they occupy in their subject area. In the general case, only the value of the quartile of the journal by the impact factor is displayed, which, in general, is a slightly coarser, but much more universal metric of its authority and significance.

InCites for Advanced Bibliometric Research

Finally, the InCites system is available for advanced bibliometric research. It generates user-friendly reports and infographics from the Web of Science Core Collection dataset and adds dozens of advanced bibliometric indicators to analysis capabilities not available in Web of Science. InCites allows you to build ratings of scientific organizations by country or the world, compare indicators of scientific performance, analyze trends in science and conduct your own bibliometric research.

Trends in publication activity in Russia, Brazil, Switzerland and Iran by year

The Moscow office of Clarivate Analytics is actively involved in training users, both in working with the Web of Science system and in solving applied research problems. At free webinars, you can learn how to calculate the citations of an author or organization, how to choose a journal to publish your work, how to insure against publication in an unscrupulous journal.
