Abstract:

This paper analyzes Altmetric.com, one of the most important altmetric data providers currently used. We have analyzed a set of publications with doi number indexed in the Web of Science during the period 2011-2013 and collected their data with the Altmetric API. 19% of the original set of papers was retrieved from Altmetric.com including some altmetric data. We identified 16 different social media sources from which Altmetric.com retrieves data. However five of them cover 95.5% of the total set. Twitter (87.1%) and Mendeley (64.8%) have the highest coverage. We conclude that Altmetric.com is

Abstract:

The citing of academic publications in policy documents is an important indication of social impact and there is increasing interest in using policy documents as evidence of scientific impact on policy and the society more broadly. This research compared the policy coverage of 18,996 Scopus publications au-thored by researchers affiliated to 17 Finnish universities and research institutes. The coverage and overlap of two sources of policy citations, namely Overton and Altmetric.com, were analyzed. The overall results suggest that about 39% of publications in various social science fields from

Abstract:

All research at Dutch universities is assessed on a regular basis following the Standard Evaluation Protocol (SEP). From 2015 onwards, one of the protocol’s criteria for measuring research success is the societal impact of the research. As traditional metrics do not provide an indication of public reach and influence, the African Studies Centre in Leiden (ASCL) decided to experiment with the new suite of alternative metrics – altmetrics – that measure the number of times a research output is viewed, downloaded or mentioned online.

Abstract:

Recently, altmetrics have emerged as alternative means of measuring scholarly impact, aiming at improving and complementing both traditional and web-based metrics. The aim of the present study is to contribute to the altmetrics literature by providing an overview of the coverage of altmetrics sources for the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTh) publications. We used Scopus to collect all research articles stating AUTh as the affiliation of at least one author and published from 2010 to 2016. The altmetric data originated from Altmetric Explorer, a service provided by Altmetric.com. Only

Abstract:

Policy documents are one of the altmetric sources most crucial for comprehending the interaction between science and policy. In policy documents, the source is usually the institution or organization that published the given policy document. In this study we compare the policy document sources indexed by Altmetric.com and Overton. Altmetric.com is an altmetric aggregator that has been around for over a decade. Overton is a newer database aiming at being the most complete collection of international policy documents. Our findings reveal that Overton covered more policy organizations than Altmet
