publications better than average citation impact of journals (JCS)?

Аннотация
In this study, the academic status of users of scientific publications in
Mendeley is explored in order to analyse the usage pattern of Mendeley users in
terms of subject fields, citation and readership impact. The main focus of this
study is on studying the filtering capacity of Mendeley readership counts
compared to journal citation scores in detecting highly cited WoS publications.
Main finding suggests a faster reception of Mendeley readerships as compared to
citations across 5 major field of science. The higher correlations of
scientific users with citations indicate the similarity between reading and
citation behaviour among these users. It is confirmed that Mendeley readership
counts filter highly cited publications (PPtop 10%) better than journal
citation scores in all subject fields and by most of user types. This result
reinforces the potential role that Mendeley readerships could play for
informing scientific and alternative impacts.
