How well does a university perform in comparison with other universities? The use of odds, and odds ratios, for the comparison of institutional citation impact using the example of the Leiden Rankings

This study presents the calculation of odds, and odds ratios, for the comparison of the citation impact of universities in the Leiden Ranking. Odds and odds ratios can be used to measure the performance difference between a selected university and a competing university, or the average of other competing universities, in a relatively simple but clear way.
