Collaboration outside of academia

What is it?

Collaboration in InCites and SciVal is determined using the affiliation/s listed in author by-lines on publications.  You can analyse your publications to find publications co-authored with colleagues in medical or government institutions as well as corporate entities.  

How do I use it?

Collaborations with sectors outside of academia may help to demonstrate your engagement with end-users or colleagues in other sectors.

1. Login to SciVal
2. From the Explore tab, define or select your entity to search (e.g. researcher or institution)
3. From the left-hand menu, scroll down to Collaboration metrics - Sector collaboration
4. Use the radio buttons to select the type of sector collaboration e.g. Government, medical etc.
5. Default metric is by Scholarly output and Citations. You can change the metric to Citations per publication or Field-Weighted Citation Impact (FWCI)
6. Scroll down to see visualisations over time by Scholarly output, Publication share (%), Citation count, Citations per publication or Field-Weighted citation impact. The table changes to the metric selected. 
7. Export the metrics to Excel for further analysis or add to a Report. 

1. Login to InCites
