Full Record Fields

Title

The full title of the article. All article and chapter titles are in English. Titles of articles and book chapters that are not published in English are translated into English, unless the publication provides an English-language translation.

index

By

The author(s) of the article or book chapter. You may see two versions of an author name in records of articles published in 2007 and later. For example: Diaz, G (Diaz, Gregorio). Be aware that you must still search for an author by last name followed by one or more initials.

Anonymous authors appear as [Anon]. If, however, there are group authors, then the field is blank.

For newly indexed records, a superscript number may appear after an author's name. This means we have found an association between the author's name and the author's address. When you click the number link, the system takes you to the Addresses field where you can see the author's address.

In some cases, an author may be assigned more than one address and you will see more than one superscript number. In other cases, an author may not be assigned an address while other authors of the same article are assigned an address. This occurs when we cannot determine which address is associated with an author.

The product maintains the author / address association when you print, e-mail, save, and export records. In the Address field of your output document, look for the author's name before the address.

Journal Information

Table of Contents: Current Content Connect®

This field contains a link to the Current Contents Connect® Browse Journals page where you can browse the table of contents of journals and books covered by the editions and collections to which you subscribe in Current Contents Connect.

Performance Trends: Essential Science IndicatorsSM

This field contains a link to Essential Science Indicators where you can perform in-depth analysis to find data for ranking scientists, institutions, countries, and journals. With Essential Science Indicators, you can:

  • Explore science performance statistics and science trends data, based on journal article publication counts and citation data
  • Determine research output and impact in specific fields of research
  • Evaluate potential employees, collaborators, reviewers, and peers

Impact Factor: Journal Citation Reports®

The Journal Impact Factor is defined as all citations to the journal in the current JCR year to items published in the previous two years, divided by the total number of scholarly items (these comprise articles, reviews, and proceedings papers) published in the journal in the previous two years.

Though not a strict mathematical average, the Journal Impact Factor provides a functional approximation of the mean citation rate per citable item.  A Journal Impact Factor of 1.0 means that, on average, the articles published one or two years ago have been cited one time.  A Journal Impact Factor of 2.5 means that, on average, the articles published one or two years ago have been cited two and a half times.  The citing works may be articles published in the same journal.  However, most citing works are from different journals, proceedings, or books indexed in Web of Science Core Collection.

Other Information

IDS Number

The IDS Number uniquely identifies an issue of a journal. At one time, it was used to order copies of articles from a document delivery service. This identifier still has utility because records of articles from the same issue of a journal share the same IDS Number.

Please contact your library administrator, or person(s) responsible for document delivery, to learn how to obtain printed copies of articles.  Alternatively, go to the website of the Copyright Clearance Center, www.contentscm.com, to learn how to order copies of documents from the CCC.

To access the full text of a document in electronic form, open the Full Text Options menu above a full record.

Citation Network

Times Cited

The Times Cited count displays the total number of times a published paper was cited by other papers within our database products such as Web of Science Core Collection and BIOSIS Citation Index . The link takes you to a Citing Articles page in one of our citation indexes.

Access to records is limited to your institution's subscription.

index

Cited References

The Cited References count displays the number of documents cited by the current record. Click the link to view the list of cited references.

index

To view records that share cited references with the record you are viewing in the current product database, click the View Related Records link.

The assumption behind Related Records searching is that articles that cite the same works have a subject relationship, regardless of whether their titles, abstracts, or keywords contain the same terms. The more cited references two articles share, the closer the subject relationship.

The link displays the total number of related records within one of our citation indexes such as Web of Science Core Collection or BIOSIS Citation Index .

Access to records is limited to your institution's subscription.
