dc.descriptionReport the on the findings of comparing citation information publicly available from ORCID and Scopus ID records of UT Southwestern graduate students and postdocs.en
dc.description.abstractPURPOSE: The purpose was to evaluate the current efficacy of ORCID iDs in Scopus by comparing citation information from ORCID and Scopus ID records SETTING/PARTICIPANTS/RESOURCES: Spreadsheet of current and recently matriculated graduate students (626) from our institution for citation count report. METHODOLOGY: Analysis and compilation of Scopus and ORCID author and citation search results, as well as existing linked ORCID iDs from campus database. RESULTS/OUTCOMES: 1. 17.5% (109) of students have a reliable, ORCID iD primary source for current citation(s), greater or equal to Scopus results 2. At least 88% (443) have active Scopus ID records (includes 96 from Question #1 with "equal to Scopus" designation) 3. 10% (62) have no citations to report (no Scopus ID and blank/ no ORCID account) 4. 17% (106) had multiple Scopus ID matches and ORCID name matches, requiring further clarification 5. 36% (227) of students had ORCID accounts registered with the institution 6. 31% (195) of students had distinct name matches/information with ORCID accounts not registered with the institution DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION: Only 9% of graduate students have an active ORCID record that campus Information Resources (I.R.) could pull current citation information from. At least 88% of graduate students have Scopus IDs that could be pulled by I.R. Therefore, Scopus IDs are currently more reliable for obtaining citation information for reporting with author order. Whereas some non-Scopus APIs in ORCID provide helpful month publication date data. Educational materials/training on various ID linking practices in databases and using APIs within ORCID is recommended.en
