ImpactStory classifies metrics along two dimensions: audience ( scholars or the public ) and type of engagement with research ( view , discuss , save , cite , and recommend ).

For each metric, the coloured bar shows its percentile relative to all articles indexed in the Web of Science that year. The bars show a range, representing the 95% confidence interval around your percentile (and also accounting for ties). Along with ranges, we show “Highly” badges for metrics above the 75th percentile that exceed a minimum frequency.

Each metric's raw count is shown to the left of its name. Click the raw count to visit that metric source's external page for the item; there, you can explore the engagement in more detail.
