The first step in tracking your citations is to create a Scopus Author Profile. This profile is a centralized hub for all your publications indexed in Scopus. To create your profile, visit the Scopus website and follow these steps:
Enter your full name in the search bar and select your profile from the results.
If your profile is not yet claimed, follow the instructions to verify your identity and claim ownership.
Ensure your profile is up-to-date by adding your publications, affiliations, and contact information.
Once your profile is established, you can access a range of citation metrics that provide insights into the impact of your research. Scopus offers several key metrics, including:
The total number of times your publications have been cited by other researchers.
A measure of productivity and impact, reflecting the number of publications with at least that many citations.
The average number of citations per publication indicates the overall impact of your work.
A metric that considers the impact of citations within your specific field, providing a more nuanced understanding of your research's influence.
Your Scopus Author Profile provides a comprehensive overview of your research activity and citation metrics. You can access the following information:
A complete list of your publications indexed in Scopus, including title, journal, year of publication, and citation count.
Detailed information about each citation, including the citing publication, author, and journal.
Tools to analyze your citation patterns, including citation trends over time, top citing journals, and frequently cited publications.
A visualization of your research collaborations, highlighting the researchers you've worked with and the impact of those collaborations.
Tracking your citations in Scopus offers numerous benefits for researchers:
Monitor the reach and influence of your work, providing valuable insights into its contributions to the field.
Analyze citation patterns to understand emerging research trends and identify areas for future research.
Track your citation metrics over time to assess your research productivity and impact.
Share your Scopus Author Profile to showcase your research accomplishments and connect with other researchers.
While Scopus offers a comprehensive platform for tracking citations, other resources provide additional insights into research impact. Consider exploring:
A widely used search engine for scholarly literature, offering citation tracking and other metrics.
A platform that tracks the online attention and impact of research publications, including social media mentions, news coverage, and policy documents.
A social networking site for researchers offering citation tracking, collaboration tools, and research sharing.
