- You want a citation database that gives you the highest
number
of citations possible for articles. Should you use Google
Scholar, Scopus, or Web of Science? This article is
"an
observational study examining these three databases;
comparing
citation counts for articles from two disciplines (oncology
and
condensed matter physics) and two years (1993 and
2003)." Its
findings: which database is best depends upon the discipline
and
the year of publication. -
