The Import Publications feature can be used to import citations directly from a number of publication databases, as well as through an uploaded BibTeX file generated from other citation managers such as Zotero or Mendeley. Citation Managers are typically used to manage resources that you find while doing research, in anticipation of then citing those references while writing. They can also be used to create personal publication libraries, which can then be exported as BibTeX files to import into Activity Insight. There is no single foolproof import method to recommend for faculty across the campus. Each option has advantages and disadvantages, depending on your area of research interest and publication activity. The Import from a Third Party approach, on the right side of the Import Publications screen has the ​ ​ following pros and cons: ● Pros: Data is pulled directly from the selected publication database or researcher profile into Activity Insight ● Cons: Each of the integrated publication databases covers different disciplines in varying degrees. For example, PubMed will include a high percentage of public health publications, but very little in social sciences or humanities. None of these resources will work equally well for all faculty members. The Import from a BibTeX file approach, on the left side of the Import Publications screen has the ​ ​ following pros and cons: ● Pros: More control for faculty as to which publications are included in the BibTeX file, allowing for broader coverage across disciplines. ● Cons: ○ Two step process to export BibTeX file and then upload the file into Activity Insight ○ Some citation managers are limited in regards to which pieces of data are stored and/or exported to the BibTeX file. Given the increasing use of ORCID at UMD and among funders and publishers, we recommend creating or updating your ORCID profile first, then importing directly from within Activity Insight. Another alternative is to import using Publons. To import your publications using Publons, select the "Web of Science" service in the select a service dropdown. Select "ResearcherID" in the search criteria dropdown; and enter your researcher ID in the text box next to it. This will import your Publon publications. For the BibTeX upload, Zotero, EndNote, or Mendeley reference managers can be used to curate personal citations and generate a BibTeX file for uploading. Detailed instructions on how to create a personal library of your own publications in these reference managers can be found in the Faculty Guide. ​ ​ Importing is Just the First Step... While these import options greatly ease the burden of entering publication activity, additional manual effort will likely still be needed: ● The Import feature only handles a subset of the possible types of publications that faculty are involved in ● Most times, when publications are brought in through the Import feature, key details about the publication will be imported. Depending on the quality of the source data, things like page numbers, special characters, URLs, etc. may not appear correctly, and may need to be corrected manually. Publication Types Supported By the Import Feature The most common types of publications - e.g., article, book, chapter - are supported by the Import Publications feature using either the import from a third party such as ORCID, or importing with BibTeX. The full set of publication types supported vary by each of the import options available. Details on the specific publication types supported through the ORCID and BibTeX options are outlined in the appendix. Note that the Import Publication feature imports all records into the Publications screen. The publication database may include citations for presentations, patent/invention information, or other data relevant to other Activity Insight screens - not the Publications screen. These may come in through the Import feature but will result in new Publications records. These new records cannot be moved to another activity screen in Activity Insight; they will need to be deleted from Publications and manually entered on the appropriate screen. The Annual Report Data Fields crosswalk of activities to Activity ​ ​ Insight data screens will help in navigating the correct placement for these records. Citation Elements Included By the Import Feature A number of the key pieces of citation information convey with the citation data when it is imported from a third party citation manager or by uploading a BibTeX file. Each citation repository hsa different data points that they store and make available for import into Activity Insight. With BibTeX files, the set of citation elements that are imported depends not only on the BibTeX import integration support in Activity Insight, but also on the BibTeX export feature of the citation manager that you are using to create the BibTeX file. Google Scholar, for example, doesn't store DOI but other citation managers that generate BibTex files do. When it is included in the export file, DOI will be included in the Activity Insight record. One key item that is missing from any of the import options is an indicator as to whether the publication wsa peer-reviewed or not. This needs to be flagged manually within Activity Insight by editing the record and setting the Was this peer-reviewed/refereed? field. ​ ​ Going the Manual Route After your initial publication import, you may want to enter your publications manually as you complete or publish them. You can do this using the Add New Item button on the Publications summary screen. You can also use this option from the beginning if you do not want to use any of the Import options. This may greatly increase the amount of time you need to spend entering the bulk of your publications, but it will give you complete control over which information is captured in Activity Insight for each one of your publications. You will notice that the data entry screen does not show any required fields. This means that you may enter as much or as little information for each publication as you choose, as long as you include at least one date. Keep in mind: how you enter your activities is how they will appear on reports, so if you leave out pertinent information--for example, if you do not select a publication type, or you leave out the title--your publications may not be arranged properly or appear as you expect them to in your annual report. Curating Publications All publications that have been added through the Import Publication feature need to be curated to ensure that the citation information is accurate. Without this oversight, it is likely that these publications will not appear as you expect them to in your annual report. Each publication needs to be checked to make sure that its citation is correctly coded. Key areas to check are: ● The publication type ● Peer-reviewed/refereed ● Invited The latter two citation elements are not imported through the Import Publication feature in Activity Insight and must always be set manually. If other errors are identified with the publications, it may be worthwhile to update them in the source citation manager, after the corrections have been made in Activity Insight. Note that any changes to correct errors with the citation made within Activity Insight will not automatically be reflected in the source citation manager. At the bottom of each publication record data screen in Activity Insight, the original source is identified. Use this information to edit the citation in the source citation manager. Appendix: Publication Type Support Supported Publication Types with ORCID The details below were drawn from https://members.orcid.org/api/resources/work-types. ​ ​ PUBLICATIONS Work type Use book Books written by a single author or collaboratively based on research or scholarly findings generally derived from peer reviewed funding. book-chapter Texts written by a single author or collaboratively based on research or scholarly findings and expertise in a field. book-review Critical review of works of fiction or nonfiction highlighting the contributions to an art, field or discipline. dictionary-entry Entries of new words, new meanings of existing words, changes in spelling and hyphenation over a longer period of time, and grammatical changes. dissertation Treatise advancing an original point of view resulting from research: a requirement for a doctoral degree. encyclopedia-entry Authored entries in a reference work or a compendium focusing on a particular domain or on all branches of knowledge. edited-book Books edited by a single author or collaboratively for the dissemination of research or scholarly findings that generally result from peer reviewed funding. journal-article Articles in peer-reviewed publications that disseminate the results of original research and scholarship. journal-issue Periodical publications aimed at fostering intellectual debate and inquiry. magazine article Articles in thematic publications published at fixed intervals. manual Course and assignment materials produced for teaching purposes. online-resource Information accessible only on the web via traditional technical methods newsletter-article Articles in publications aimed at researchers, decision-makers, professionals and the public that report on a research project or on the activities of a research chair or a research center. newspaper-article Articles in a daily, weekly or monthly publication reporting on news and social issues aimed at the public. report Reports disseminating the outcomes and deliverables of a research contract.

Wagner December 2015 Working Paper Series of the German Data Forum (RatSWD) The RatSWD Working Papers series was launched at the end of 2007. Since 2009, the series has been publishing exclusively conceptual and historical works dealing with the organization of the German statistical infrastructure and research infrastructure in the social, behavioral, and economic sciences. Papers that have appeared in the series deal primarily with the organization of Germany’s official statistical system, government agency research, and academic research infrastructure, as well as directly with the work of the RatSWD. Papers addressing the aforementioned topics in other countries as well as supranational aspects are particularly welcome. RatSWD Working Papers are non-exclusive, which means that there is nothing to prevent you from publishing your work in another venue as well: all papers can and should also appear in professionally, institutionally, and locally specialized journals. The RatSWD Working Papers are not available in bookstores but can be ordered online through the RatSWD. In order to make the series more accessible to readers not fluent in German, the English section of the RatSWD Working Papers website presents only those papers published in English, while the German section lists the complete contents of all issues in the series in chronological order. The views expressed in the RatSWD Working Papers are exclusively the opinions of their authors and not those of the RatSWD or of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research.

    Faculty of Economics Cambridge Working Paper Economics Cambridge Working Paper Economics: 1753 PUBLISHING WHILE FEMALE ARE WOMEN HELD TO HIGHER STANDARDS? EVIDENCE FROM PEER REVIEW. Erin Hengel 4 December 2017 I use readability scores to test if referees and/or editors apply higher standards to women’s writing in academic peer review. I find: (i) female-authored papers are 1–6 percent better written than equivalent papers by men; (ii) the gap is two times higher in published articles than in earlier, draft versions of the same papers; (iii) women’s writing gradually improves but men’s does not—meaning the readability gap grows over authors’ careers. In a dynamic model of an author’s decision-making process, I show that tougher editorial standards and/or biased referee assignment are uniquely consistent with this pattern of choices. A conservative causal estimate derived from the model suggests senior female economists write at least 9 percent more clearly than they otherwise would. These findings indicate that higher standards burden women with an added time tax and probably contribute to academia’s “Publishing Paradox” Consistent with this hypothesis, I find female-authored papers spend six months longer in peer review. More generally, tougher standards impose a quantity/quality tradeoff that characterises many instances of female output. They could resolve persistently lower—otherwise unexplained—female productivity in many high-skill occupations. Publishing while Female Are women held to higher standards? Evidence from peer review.∗ Erin Hengely November 2017 I use readability scores to test if referees and/or editors apply higher standards to women’s writing in academic peer review.

In response, this paper investigates 2,448,055 citations to 2,299 English-language highly-cited documents from 252 GS subject categories published in 2006, comparing GS, the WoS Core Collection, and Scopus. GS consistently found the largest percentage of citations across all areas (93%-96%), far ahead of Scopus (35%-77%) and WoS (27%-73%). GS found nearly all the WoS (95%) and Scopus (92%) citations. Most citations found only by GS were from non-journal sources (48%-65%), including theses, books, conference papers, and unpublished materials. Many were non-English (19%- 38%), and they tended to be much less cited than citing sources that were also in Scopus or WoS. Despite the many unique GS citing sources, Spearman correlations between citation counts in GS and WoS or Scopus are high (0.78-0.99). They are lower in the Humanities, and lower between GS and WoS than between GS and Scopus. The results suggest that in all areas GS citation data is essentially a superset of WoS and Scopus, with substantial extra coverage.

Keywords: Digital bias, digital discrimination, algorithms, platform economy, racism 1 Abstract Racially biased outcomes have increasingly been recognized as a problem that can infect software algorithms and datasets of all types. Digital platforms, in particular, are organizing ever greater portions of social, political, and economic life. This essay examines and organizes current academic and popular press discussions on how digital tools, despite appearing to be objective and unbiased, may, in fact, only reproduce or, perhaps, even reinforce current racial inequities. However, digital tools may also be powerful instruments of objectivity and standardization. Based on a review of the literature, we have modified and extended a “value chain–like” model introduced by Danks and London, depicting the potential location of ethnic bias in algorithmic decision-making.1 The model has five phases: input, algorithmic operations, output, users, and feedback. With this model, we identified nine unique types of bias that might occur within these five phases in an algorithmic model: (1) training data bias, (2) algorithmic focus bias, (3) algorithmic processing bias, (4) transfer context bias, (5) misinterpretation bias, (6) automation bias, (7) non-transparency bias, (8) consumer bias, and (9) feedback loop bias.

  • In Defence of Working Papers
    Stream: Culture/Politics/Technology, 5(1): 1-7 http://journals.sfu.ca/cpt/index.php/stream/index In Defence of Working Papers Scott Timcke School of Communication, Simon Fraser University Graeme Webb School of Communication, Simon Fraser University Jay McKinnon School of Communication, Simon Fraser University Sibo Chen School of Communication, Simon Fraser University Abstract Working papers are academic articles in various stages of completion, which represents a significant publication venue in various academic disciplines. Nonetheless, there have been considerable amount of critiques on working paper in recent years, especially on its quality and conflict with formal publications. Given the above situation, this article offers a defence of the academic values of working papers. After outlining and addressing common misunderstandings of working papers, the article discusses their four major benefits: the provision of valuable feedback on interim findings, the potential for collaboration, flexible means of dissemination, and the value for intellectual development and capacity building (especially for graduate students). Overall, these benefits underscore a commitment to open-access research that is accessible to the public at large. Keywords working paper, open access, academic collaboration Introduction Working papers are academic articles in various stages of completion, which represents a significant publication venue in various academic disciplines. Specifically, working papers can be works in progress, under submission, or forthcoming and are often freely circulated at a certain level within a specific academic community. These working versions are generally offered in the interest of personal and public scholarship: they serve to notify others in the same academic community that a person happens to be working on a particular problem, which opens up the work to a wide audience and furthers public dialogue.

  • Scooped! Estimating Rewards for Priority in Science∗
    Scooped! Estimating Rewards for Priority in Science∗ Ryan Hilly Carolyn Steinz August 12, 2020 Abstract The scientific community assigns credit or “priority” to individuals who publish an important discovery first. We examine the impact of losing a priority race (colloquially known as getting “scooped”) on subsequent publication and career outcomes. To do so, we take advantage of data from structural biology where the nature of the scientific process together with the Protein Data Bank — a repository of standardized research discoveries — enables us to identify priority races and their outcomes. We find that race winners receive more attention than losers, but that these contests are not winner-take-all. Scooped teams are 2.5 percent less likely to publish, are 18 percent less likely to appear in a top-10 journal, and receive 20 percent fewer citations. As a share of total citations, we estimate that scooped papers receive a credit share of 45 percent. This is larger than the theoretical benchmark of zero percent suggested by classic models of innovation races. We conduct a survey of structural biologists which suggests that active scientists are more pessimistic about the cost of getting scooped than can be justified by the data. Much of the citation effect can be explained by journal placement, suggesting editors and reviewers are key arbiters of academic priority. Getting scooped has only modest effects on academic careers. Finally, we present a simple model of statistical discrimination in academic attention to explain how the priority reward system reinforces inequality in science, and document empirical evidence consistent with our model.
