摘要: A different number of citations can be expected for publications appearing in subject categories and publication years. For this reason, the citation-based normalized indicator Mean Normalized Citation Score (MNCS) is used bibliometrics. Mendeley one most important sources altmetrics data. reader counts reflect impact terms readership. Since a significant influence year discipline has also been observed case counts, should not estimated without normalization. In study, all articles reviews Web Science core collection with 2012 (and DOI) are to normalize their counts. new that determines obtained –the Reader (MNRS) – compared MNCS. The MNRS enables us compare paper had on across Comparisons journal university level show MNCS correlate larger 9601 journals than 76 German universities.
