Measuring your impact
Your research impact can be measured and benchmarked with bibliometrics, for instance, for Tenure Track reports or for a research proposal. Altmetrics show your societal impact on social media, policy reports and news outlets. You can use SciVal to analyse your research impact and detect trends and perhaps to develop a new line of research or new collaborations.
Bibliometrics
Bibliometrics statistically analyses numbers of publications and their citations. Such analyses are used to assess the performance of scientists, research groups, publications, and journals. As a researcher, you can also use bibliometrics to demonstrate your research impact.
Altmetrics
Altmetrics provide complementary metrics for publications. The performance of scientific publications is traditionally based on how often these publications are cited in other scientific publications. Altmetrics includes also number of downloads and mentions on social media.
SciVal
SciVal is a bibliometric tool that uses Scopus data to analyse the research performance of individuals or groups. As a researcher, you can use SciVal to create evaluation reports, to identify a publication strategy, and to find new collaborations.
