Russian Citation Index: the Procedure of Indicators Calculation in Author Profiles Has Changed
There have been changes in indicators calculation in author profiles in the Russian Citation Index at eLIBRARY platform. If the author has the same publication in the original and translated versions of the journal, such publications are counted as one, books that have reprints in different years are also counted as one publication.
Author citation record has also changed. If the publication (citation source) has multiple quotation of the author’s same work, such citations are counted as one, if there is a citation of both original and translated versions of the article, these citations are also counted as one.
Now all the author indicators are calculated according to this pattern.
