SciVal Metric | Indicate | Abbreviation | Note | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Scholarly Output | how many publications does this entity have indexed in Scopus? | |||
Field-Weighted Citation Impact | how the number of citations received by an entity’s publications compares with the average number of citations received by all other similar publications in the data universe | how do the citations received by this entity’s publications compare with the world average? | FWCI | A FWCI of 1.00 indicates that the entity’s publications have been cited exactly as would be expected based on the global average for similar publications; the FWCI of “World”, or the entire Scopus database, is 1.00. A FWCI of more than 1.00 indicates above the global average for similar publications; for example, 2.11 means 111% more than the world average. A FWCI of less than 1.00 indicates below the global average for similar publications; for example, 0.87 means 13% less than the world average. |
