Search for your publications

In order to carry out any citation analysis on your publications, you must first search for them using one of the citation databases.

when searching for your publications it is important to note that:

  • the number of publications found will vary from one database to another as the coverage for each is different
  • you need to include all possible variations of the names you use to publish, such as Kelt, M or Kelt, M.D.
  • given that some names are quite common, it can also be wise to narrow your search by institution to help eliminate non-relevant papers
  • if you have published under a number of institutions, you will need to include these in the affiliations field

How to search by author on Web of Science

Tip: when using institutional names in WOS use the abbreviated form in the address field. The database maps these to the full form of the name. This allows you to search for both the abbreviated and fulll form of an institutional name.

How to search by author on Publish or Perish

  • It is not possible to limit by author affiliation using POP
  • You can also conduct an author search using just Google Scholar but you won't be able to carry out advanced citation analysis
