“…For example, the use of some specific sources such as recommended articles from F1000 (Bornmann, 2014;2015;Bornmann;Haunschild, 2015;2018) or articles from specific journals such as PLoS One (Zahedi et al, 2014c;De-Winter, 2015;Costas, 2018) and Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology (Bar-Ilan et al, 2019) produce specific results that can hardly be generalised. Another important bias is introduced when local studies are analysed, mainly from emergent regions such as Latin America (Maricato;Filho, 2018;Alperin, 2015) or from non-English-speaking countries such as Spain (Torres-Salinas et al, 2016;Torres-Salinas et al, 2018b), Peru (Eléspuru-Briceño; Huaroto, 2016) or China (Wang et al, 2016). The selection of specific formats such as books (Hammarfelt, 2014;Torres-Salinas et al, 2017a;2017b;Torres-Salinas et al, 2018a) and datasets Peters et al, 2016;Kraker et al, 2015) also limits the extrapolation of the results.…”

“…Visitors often gain access to new papers through the information given by diverse referrals, instead of direct searches. This is also a reason for the relatively low visits of China to new papers, as Chinese people are inactive on mainstream social media platforms (Wang et al , 2016a) and, therefore, have a much lower chance of quickly gaining access to new papers. In contrast, older papers have already lost the awareness created by social media and other referrals.…”

“…Algumas pesquisas se dedicaram à avaliação da produção científica resultante de pesquisas financiadas com bolsas de produtividade, mas o foco geralmente é voltado para a análise de métricas tradicionais e medidas bibliométricas (WAINER;VIEIRA, 2013;FONSECA;DIGIAMPIETRI, 2016). São necessários estudos que, além do impacto acadêmico que recebem, a partir das citações, avaliem a mesma produção na perspectiva da atenção online que tais pesquisas despertam dentro e fora da comunidade científica, tema em que ainda há poucos trabalhos publicados, mesmo na literatura internacional (WANG, X. et al, 2016).…”

“…Consideradas complementares aos tradicionais indicadores bibliométricos de citação, as métricas alternativas ainda contam com poucos estudos que tenham examinado a relação entre produtividade acadêmica e o desempenho altmétrico em nível nacional (ALHOORI et al, 2014;THELWALL;MAFLAHI, 2014;WANG et al, 2016;CHO, 2017;PARK;PARK, 2018). Além disso, não está claro se a altmetria pode ser considerada uma ferramenta de medição universal, já que o acesso à Internet e o uso de ferramentas de mídia social variam de um país ou região para outro (ALHOORI et al, 2014;WANG et al, 2016), assim como seu idioma (ALPERIN, 2013;THELWALL;MAFLAHI, 2014).…”
