DIAZ-CARDENAS, Alfonso Felipe et al. Characteristics of the scientific production of Puebla institutions indexed in the Web of Science. Investig. bibl [online]. 2017, vol.31, n.spe, pp.43-77. ISSN 2448-8321.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iibi.24488321xe.2017.nesp1.57885.

This article describes the scope and characteristics of the research developed in the state of Puebla, Mexico, whose results have been published in journals indexed in the Web of Science. The analyzed corpus was compiled by the search procedure with the word “puebla” in the organization and address fields, restricted to the period 2008-2012. We observed from the data obtained that the Universidad Autónoma de Puebla and the Instituto Nacional de Astrofísica, Óptica y Electrónica are the most productive institutions of Puebla. Our focus was on the 102 most cited articles of the period. Scientific production of Puebla institutions focuses on the physical and biomedical sciences and this production derives mostly from international collaborations. The multiauthor articles (at least three authors) are the most cited publications, while the individual research papers have little impact according to their number of citations. Finally, we analyze the differences in impact factor across scientific fields.
