Background and aim: The aim of this study was to determine the status of national and international collaborations of researchers affiliated with Shiraz University of Medical Sciences in the Web of Science (WoS) and the impact of these collaborations on citation indicators.
Materials and methods: In this applied study, to extract and analyze the data, a documentary method was used through a scientometric approach. The statistical population included all scientific outputs of researchers affiliated with Shiraz University of Medical Sciences in the WoS from 2012 to 2016. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean) and inferential statistics (Spearman correlation coefficient).
Findings: Findings showed that the growth trend of scientific products of researchers of Shiraz University of Medical Sciences increased during the years under study. Examining the impact of international, national and organizational collaborations indicated that products published at the international level had the greatest impact on the citations received (10.36). After that, the products published at the national level compared to international were ranked second with an average of 4.9 (less impact), and then the scientific outputs published at the university level (3.38) were in the third place. The correlation coefficient between collaborations and the amount of citations were calculated using Spearman correlation test (0.133). The results showed that there was a positive correlation between the two variables, and this relationship was statistically significant at the 99% confidence level.
Conclusion: International collaboration has more impact on article citation rates than national and organizational collaboration. |
