Q

What are Keywords Plus and why are they specifically important to my research?

A

The data in KeyWords Plus are words or phrases that frequently appear in the titles of an article’s references, but do not appear in the title of the article itself. Based upon a special algorithm that is unique to Clarivate databases, KeyWords Plus enhances the power of cited-reference searching by searching across disciplines for all the articles that have cited references in common

Q

Why aren’t there Keywords Plus on every record/article?

A

Because KeyWords Plus terms are derived from the titles of articles cited by the author of the article being indexed, articles without references and articles whose references are not linked to source items will not have KeyWords Plus.

Further, KeyWords Plus may be present for articles that have no Author Keywords, or they may simply include important terms not listed among the author keywords.

Q

Why don’t I see KeyWords Plus on article earlier than 1991?

A

KeyWords Plus has been included in the database from 1991 on, the same as Author Keywords. A few articles prior to 1991 might contain KeyWords Plus information if they were part of gap load indexed in 1991 or later, but the vast majority of articles indexed before 1991 will not have KeyWords Plus terms.

Q

Why do a Cited Reference Search?

A

Cited Reference searching should be a part of any complete literature search. If you’re only searching keywords to find papers, you may be missing out on important papers and ideas. A cited reference search starts with a known item and moves forward in time, potentially guiding you through the evolution of a concept in the literature of one or more fields.

  • Web of Science indexes the items from each bibliography or list of references.
  • We capture all cited references regardless of age or document type.
  • Published authors may search for their published works to understand the impact their research is having on other researchers and disciplines.
  • You can search for citations to anything that’s been cited in a Web of Science indexed publication - journal articles, books, theses, dissertations, works of art, musical scores and more.
