Index of quoting RINC, features of work with it

To determine the rating of a scientist, various citation indexes are used. These include Web of Science and Scopus, which include quoted magazines in English, which also include domestic central transfer editions. The Russian Scientific Citation Index (RINC) includes many regional press journals, in particular, messengers of universities and research centers. The number of publications containing information on the citation index (RINC) reaches 4000. The system is naturally characterized by a wider list of domestic publications than foreign ones.

Opportunities of RICC

RINC works on the basis of a mode of search of authors by a surname and other data. With its help, it is possible to analyze the publications of a scientific organization. The scientist's goal is to select the appropriate journal for publication.

Index citation RINC allows you to see their impact factors and determine the options for submitting the article. The system interacts with Web of Science and Scopus and displays the authors' scores in these systems. The cooperation of the Russian system with Elsevier, the publisher of scientific literature, has been ongoing since 2010. Information about the authors' quoting is automatically sent from there to the RICC. Thanks to this, the publications of Russian authors in foreign journals are taken into account.

Platform RINC

The system operates on the basis of a scientific electronic library. Her function is not just data collection. The citation index of the RICC includes a powerful analytical component of SCIENCE INDEX, which makes it possible to calculate scientometric and statistical indicators based on the obtained information of varying complexity.

The analysis uses not only articles in scientific journals, but also publications in collections of international and All-Russian conferences, which are also included in the system of RINC, patents, monographs, dissertations.

The main indicators of the scientist's activity are the total number of published works, the citation index and Hirsch. The second is the main criterion, indicating the full number of references to work. The Hirsch index is formed from the ratio of the scientist's publications and their citation.

Registration in RICC

Registration in the scientific electronic library is the first step to starting work with such a system as the Russian Scientific Citation Index (RINC). On the main page there is a tab "Authors". The fourth item on the left will be the registration in SCIENCE INDEX. Detailed instructions and videos are located just above. After passing this procedure, the link to the individual profile appears at the top. It can find all the necessary tools for work. There is an opportunity to correct your data and edit the list of your publications.

Work in the RICC system

The index of scientific citation RINC makes it possible to find information on any author. To search the library, select the "Author Index" tab. In the search request it is necessary to enter the author's surname and the place of his work. Appear Scientist and his other data on which you can identify a person. At the top of the list will be a diagram, after which you can see the publications and indexes of the author.

The database also allows you to search for a specific area of scientific activity. Another option for using the system is to analyze the citations of an individual article.

The Russian citation index (RINC) allows you to integrate information about authors into the study of the indicators of the organization in which they work. Such analytical studies can be carried out at different levels of the hierarchical structure of the Russian Academy of Sciences, including departments, regional centers.

Conclusion

Thus, the citation index of the RICC provides a voluminous list of important tasks, the main of which is the ability to isolate the performance indicators of a particular scientist or structure. This is very convenient for expert evaluation. RINC performs an important function in the optimization of tools for statistical analysis of indicators of domestic science. Optimization of this system continues.

Sometimes there are situations when scientists, full namesakes of each other, are on the same list as one author of the articles. In addition, some significant publications of authors may not be included in the database. There is a special search engine for quotes "Google Academy". Sometimes through it you can find links that are not included in the RINC. The improvement of this system continues.

Due to the collective work of the authors, citation indexes and Hirsch can be significantly improved. There are certain ways to increase the impact factors of journals by referring to articles from it. The way to increase the Hirsch index is to quote each other, agreeing with colleagues from a similar institution.
