Altmetrics: métricas alternativas de impacto científico com base em redes sociais [PDF]
Perspectivas em Ciência da Informação, 2015 Métricas alternativas ou "altmetrics" podem ser definidas como o estudo e uso de medidas de impacto acadêmico com base na atividade de ferramentas e ambientes online. Altmetrics visam medir as diferentes formas e padrões de significado e uso dos produtos

Altmetrics can capture research evidence: a study across types of studies in COVID-19 literature [PDF]
Profesional De La informaci\'on 32 (2023), 2023 There has been a proliferation of descriptive for COVID-19 papers using altmetrics. The main objective of this study is to analyse whether the altmetric mentions of COVID-19 medical studies are associated with the type of study and its level of evidence. Data were collected from PubMed and Altmetric.com databases.

An extensive analysis of the presence of altmetric data for Web of Science publications across subject fields and research topics [PDF]
Scientometrics, 2020, 2020 Sufficient data presence is one of the key preconditions for applying metrics in practice. Based on both Altmetric.com data and Mendeley data collected up to 2019, this paper presents a state-of-the-art analysis of the presence of 12 kinds of altmetric events for nearly 12.3 million Web of Science publications published between 2012 and 2018.

Altmetrics of "altmetrics" using Google Scholar, Twitter, Mendeley, Facebook, Google-plus, CiteULike, Blogs and Wiki [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 We measure the impact of "altmetrics" field by deploying altmetrics indicators using the data from Google Scholar, Twitter, Mendeley, Facebook, Google-plus, CiteULike, Blogs and Wiki during 2010- 2014. To capture the social impact of scientific publications, we propose an index called alt-index, analogues to h-index.

A call for broadening the altmetrics tent to democratize science outreach. [PDF]
PLoS BiolCommon altmetrics indices are limited and biased in the social media that they cover. In this Perspective, we highlight how and why altmetrics should broaden its scope to provide more reliable metrics for scientific content and communication.

Do altmetrics correlate with the quality of papers? A large-scale empirical study based on F1000Prime data. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 In this study, we address the question whether (and to what extent, respectively) altmetrics are related to the scientific quality of papers (as measured by peer assessments).

Altmetrics as traces of the computerization of the research process [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 I propose a broad, multi-dimensional conception of altmetrics, namely as traces of the computerization of the research process. Computerization should be conceived in its broadest sense, including all recent developments in ICT and software, taking place in society as a whole.

Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow: five altmetric sources observed over a decade show evolving trends, by research age, attention source maturity and open access status. [PDF]
Scientometrics, 2023 The study of temporal trends in altmetrics is under-developed, and this multi-year observation study addresses some of the deficits in our understanding of altmetric behaviour over time. The attention surrounding research outputs, as partially captured by altmetrics, or alternative metrics, constitutes many varied forms of data.

Altmetrics, Legacy Scholarship, and Scholarly Legacy
Pennsylvania Libraries: Research & Practice, 2017 When using alternative metrics (altmetrics) to investigate the impact of a scholar’s work, researchers and librarians are typically cautioned that altmetrics will be less useful for older works of scholarship.
