Research project:Measuring the societal impact of open science

Project is financed by the Finnish Ministry of Education and Cultures Open Science and Research Initiative (2015-2016).

Can different altmetrics reflect institutional research profiles?Are some fields of research overrepresented on some altmetrics?

We compared the distribution of publications, citations, and selected altmetric events across four broad fields of science

Some altmetrics are able to reflect institutional research profiles, suggesting at their connection to scholarly communication.

Research in certain fields of science is more likely to gain more attention on specific platforms (e.g. medical research on Twitter).

Our future research will continue to investigate why some research gain higher attention on some platforms compared to other research.
