Research Skills (Write a Bibliometric Paper), Session 5: Data Collection and Cleanup

Bibliometric analysis serves as a pivotal statistical tool, providing invaluable insights into the current landscape of scientific knowledge within specific research domains. Through the utilization of various techniques, including publication and citation counting, co-citation analysis, bibliographic coupling, keyword co-occurrence, and co-authorship networks, bibliometrics equips researchers to pinpoint relevant research challenges and craft impactful studies. Additionally, the practice of composing a bibliometric paper, whether as a precursor to a literature review or within a research paper's introduction, empowers researchers to elucidate their objectives and methodologies with precision and clarity. The workshop series, “Research Skills (Write a Bibliometric Paper),” is dedicated to providing participants with the indispensable skills and knowledge essential for conducting bibliometric research and producing high-caliber research papers. In "Data Collection and Cleanup," we embark on a journey through the critical phases of gathering and refining bibliometric data.
