Citations in the corpus

Measuring contextual citation impact of scientific journals (2009, methodology): “…in the right column of Table 1 is source or ‘citing side’ normalization, which corrects for differences between research fields in the frequency at which papers cite other documents, denoted as the field’s ‘propensity to cite’ (Zitt and Small, 2008) or ‘citation potential’ (Garfield, 1979).”
h-Index: A review focused in its variants, computation and standardization for different scientific fields (2009, methodology): “A similar aproach was taken by Rousseau and Ye (2008).”
Large-scale analysis of the accuracy of the journal classification systems of Web of Science and Scopus (2015, neutral): “ Related to this, López-‐Illescas et al.”
An index to quantify an individual’s scientific research output that takes into account the effect of multiple coauthorship (2009, background): “Various modifications of the h-index have been proposed to take into account some of its perceived shortcomings (Egghe 2006; Van Raan 2006; Komulski 2006; Jin et al. 2007; Jin 2007; Sidiropoulos et al. 2007; Bornmann et al. 2008; Van Eck and Waltman 2008; Antonakis and Lalive 2008; Ruane and Tol 200”
A review of theory and practice in scientometrics (2015, background): “There have also been many comparisons of WoS, Scopus and Google Scholar across a range of disciplines (Adriaanse & Rensleigh, 2013; Amara & Landry, 2012; Franceschet, 2010; García-Pérez, 2010; Harzing & van der Wal, 2008; Jacso, 2005; Meho & Rogers, 2008; Meho & Yang, 2007).”
eHealth Literacy: Extending the Digital Divide to the Realm of Health Information (2012, background): “eHealth literacy, which includes the component of health literacy [3-5], effectively links health consumers to the outcomes typical of Internet use—that is, opportunities, possible harm [6], and inequalities (eg, being part of a minority or disenfranchised group [7-9], education [10-13], age [13-15]”
The e-Index, Complementing the h-Index for Excess Citations (2009, background): “Many of these drawbacks have been pointed out in literatures, and consequently some h-type indices were proposed to overcome these drawbacks [3–14].”
Science mapping software tools: Review, analysis, and cooperative study among tools (2011, background): “Other authors propose laying out the graph of a given time period, taking into account the previous and subsequent ones (Leydesdorff & Schank, 2008), or to pack synthesized temporal changes into a single graph (Chen, 2004; Chen et al., 2010).”
