An Exploration of Mendeley Reader and Google Scholar Citation for Analysing Indexed Article
This paper aims to analyze the number of readers from the published articles of 100 Indonesian researchers in Mendeley reference management software. The list of Indonesian scientists is obtained from the webometrics ranking of scientists. We used the Application Programming Interface (API) of Mendeley to count the number of readers for each article in Mendeley and combine it with Google Scholar citation using the scrap method. We processed ten mostly cited articles that are indexed in the first page of the Google Scholar for each designated scientist. Furthermore, we used the Pearson method to analyze the correlation of the Mendeley readers count and the Google Scholar citation. The results show that they are correlated with a value of 0.266 according to the method of Pearson with N = 1000. Furthermore we found that many online Indonesian journals have no Digital Object Identifier (DOI) yet. Our evaluation of the publication results of 100 Indonesian researchers shows that authors who upload their scientific work on Mendeley, have higher citation number in Google Scholar, because their papers are widely available on the Internet
Information and Communication Technology Reputation for XU030 Quote Companies
By the increasing spread of information technology and Internet improvements,
most of the large-scale companies are paying special attention to their
reputation on many types of the information and communication technology. The
increasing developments and penetration of new technologies into daily life,
brings out paradigm shift on the perception of reputation and creates new
concepts like esocieties, techno-culture and new media. Contemporary companies
are trying to control their reputation over the new communities who are mostly
interacting with social networks, web pages and electronic communication
technologies. In this study, the reputation of top 30 Turkish companies, quoted
to the Istanbul Stock Market, is studied, based on the information technology
interfaces between company and society, such as social networks, blogs, wikis
and web pages. The web reputation is gathered through 17 different parameters,
collected from Google, Facebook, Twitter, Bing, Alexa, etc. The reputation
index is calculated by z-index and fscoring formulations after the min-max
normalization of each web reputation parameter.Comment: 5 pages 2 figure 1 table 21 refs. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

Usage History of Scientific Literature: Nature Metrics and Metrics of Nature Publications
In this study, we analyze the dynamic usage history of Nature publications
over time using Nature metrics data. We conduct analysis from two perspectives.
On the one hand, we examine how long it takes before the articles' downloads
reach 50%/80% of the total; on the other hand, we compare the percentage of
total downloads in 7 days, 30 days, and 100 days after publication. In general,
papers are downloaded most frequently within a short time period right after
their publication. And we find that compared with Non-Open Access papers,
readers' attention on Open Access publications are more enduring. Based on the
usage data of a newly published paper, regression analysis could predict the
future expected total usage counts.Comment: 11 pages, 5 figures and 4 table
Analyzing readerships of International Iranian publications in Mendeley: an altmetrics study
In this study, the presence and distribution of both Mendeley readerships and
Web of Science citations for the publications published in the 43 Iranian
international journals indexed in Journal Citation Reports have been
investigated. The aim was to determine the impact, visibility and use of the
publications published by the Iranian international journals in Mendeley
compared to their citation impact; furthermore, to explore if there is any
relation between these two impact indicators (Mendeley readership counts and
WoS citation counts) for these publications. The DOIs of the 1,884 publications
used to extract the readerships data from Mendeley REST API in February 2014
and citations data until end of 2013 calculated using CWTS in-house WoS
database. SPSS (version 21) used to analyze the relationship between the
readerships and citations for those publications. The Mendeley usage
distribution both at the publication level (across publications years, fields
and document types) and at the user level (across users disciplines, academic
status and countries) have been investigated. These information will help to
understand the visibility and usage vs citation pattern and impact of Iranian
scientific outputs.Comment: in Persia
Utilising content marketing metrics and social networks for academic visibility
There are numerous assumptions on research evaluation in terms of quality and relevance of academic contributions. Researchers are becoming increasingly acquainted with bibliometric indicators, including; citation analysis, impact factor, h-index, webometrics and academic social networking sites. In this light, this chapter presents a review of these concepts as it considers relevant theoretical underpinnings that are related to the content marketing of scholars. Therefore, this contribution critically evaluates previous papers that revolve on the subject of academic reputation as it deliberates on the individual researchers’ personal branding. It also explains how metrics are currently being used to rank the academic standing of journals as well as higher educational institutions. In a nutshell, this chapter implies that the scholarly impact depends on a number of factors including accessibility of publications, peer review of academic work as well as social networking among scholars.peer-reviewe
