Clarivate Report Urges Shift from Single Metrics to Visual Research Profiles
focuses on four aspects of research activity and academic publishing, where profiles reveal key information – at researcher, journal, institutional and research field levels. The in-depth analysis draws on Web of Science data to show how profiles serve as valuable tools to aid interpretation, explain unexpected results and guide future investment.
The report focuses on four key areas:
Jonathan Adams , Chief Scientist at the Institute for Scientific Information and report co-author said, "Our aim is to empower decision-makers with comprehensive analyses that deliver meaningful research insights. A key to appreciating the need for rich, visual profiles, rather than simple metrics alone, is to be aware of and acknowledge the underlying statistical distribution of the data. By shifting from simple metrics to visually informative profiles, one can unlock a wealth of valuable information that aids in understanding research activities, identifies unexpected results, and supports informed policy and management decisions."
is a follow-up to the 2019 Global Research Report, , which highlights the limitations of simplified metrics in capturing the full scope of research performance and proposes alternative visualizations that provide a more comprehensive and responsible approach to research management.
Our Global Research Reports from the Institute for Scientific Information at Clarivate draw on our unique industry insights to offer analysis, ideas and commentary to enlighten and stimulate debate. Each one demonstrates the huge potential of research data to inform management issues in research assessment and research policy and to accelerate development of the global research base.
