T<\/span>hey are the unsung heroes, the scientists. Few of them are celebrities, and few of them are at the forefront of public debate. Toiling away on a specific subject, within a narrow topic, of a small field, they pursue their own interest for the good of all of us.<\/p>\n

But then there are the citations.<\/p>\n

When scientists cite each others\u2019 work in their papers and articles, they mostly give credit to, and indirectly praise each other\u2019s work. So much so, that a whole method called \u2018bibliometrics\u2019 analyzes these citations to unpack how a research field has developed.<\/p>\n

READ ALSO:<\/strong> Top 10 most cited scientific articles from Denmark 2012-2021<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Little wonder then, that researchers like it when they are cited. Little wonder that they like it even more when they are cited a lot. A citation is not just a \u2018thumbs up\u2019 from another scientist. Citations are used by universities and the agencies that fund them to assess researchers\u2019 originality and impact.<\/p>\n

There are however lots of reasons why citations are a really<\/em>\u00a0bad way to assess the relative value of a piece of research, and they are partly unpacked in this article here.<\/a><\/p>\n

But a list that shows which articles are the most cited within each subject area can sometimes unearth topics that would otherwise go unrecognized and unreported. Like the article on hate speech detection on Twitter<\/a>, that we found in our Humanities list. Or the STRING v11: Protein-protein association<\/a> article on our Science list. Not to mention the article on the French sociologist Bourdieu<\/a> that is still doing the rounds in the Law community.<\/p>\n

The below list of articles has been extracted from the Scopus database<\/a> <\/strong>on 12 December 2022. The methodology we used to extract the data is described in the fact box on the right.<\/p>\n

Note: Subject areas on Scopus are not demarcated in the same way as University of Copenhagen faculties, so the list below is divided into broad subject areas, not University of Copenhagen faculties. This may disadvantage some University of Copenhagen articles with high citation numbers.<\/em><\/p>\n

Note: Citation numbers cannot be compared between fields. Natural science subjects have, for example, an advantage over humanities and social science subjects on bibliometric databases like Scopus, partly due to many natural science articles having multiple co-authors. It is not possible on Scopus to separate Faculty of Theology subject-related publications.<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

What did we do<\/p>\n

The list extracted data from the Scopus database’s analytical tool SciVal.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

We filtered for ‘Publications<\/strong>‘ from the ‘University of Copenhagen’<\/strong> in the date range ‘2012 to 2021<\/strong>‘ using the ASJC<\/strong> (All Science Journal Classification scheme) and extracted the data set for each of the 27 subject areas<\/strong>. We then assorted them into University of Copenhagen faculty groups and found the top three publications with the highest citations.<\/p>\n

Our list includes ‘All publication types<\/strong>‘.<\/p>\n

Thanks to Thea Marie Drachen<\/a>, research librarian at the Library of the University of Southern Denmark, for her assistance in navigating SciVal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

It might be a negative citation disproving the claims of an article.\r\n\r\nAlso, the humanities and social sciences are simply not covered adequately by the databases. A 2018 analysis by Scopus showed wide discrepancies between the coverage of the different disciplines. According to Scopus' own numbers, 80.17 per cent of articles within the field of Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology are covered in the database, but only a miniscule 20.75 per cent of the Art and Humanities corpus are covered.\n<!-- end of module 1 -->\nBut a top list<em> can<\/em> help to highlight topics of research with international impact within institutions that otherwise remain unrecognized by the general public and that go unreported in the media.\r\n\r\n<strong>READ ALSO: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/danish-numbers-reveal-how-scientists-get-cited-by-other-scientists\/\"><em>Danish numbers reveal how scientists get cited by other scientists<\/em><\/a>\r\n\r\nSo this is why we have chosen to release a ranked list of cited publications from Danish universities anyway.

The University Post has released <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/the-top-10-most-cited-scientific-articles-from-denmark\">a top 10 list of the most cited articles coming out of Danish universities throughout recent history<\/a>.<\/strong>\r\n\r\nWhen a scientist references another scientists\u2019 work in an article it is called a \u2018citation\u2019. A minority of scientific articles get a huge number of citations from other scientists, and the number of citations is often used as a proxy to assess an article\u2019s impact and originality.\r\n<div class=\"factbox\">\r\n<p class=\"factbox-header feature-color\">5 things IN highly cited papers<\/p>\r\n<strong>Mohamed Elgendi<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.natureindex.com\/news-blog\/five-features-highly-cited-scientific-article\">identified in 2019<\/a> five features of highly cited articles:\r\n\r\n<strong>1.<\/strong> A title of 7-13 words\r\n<strong>2.<\/strong> Common words in the titles of highly cited papers\r\n<strong>3.<\/strong> Six authors or more\r\n<strong>4.<\/strong> 35,000 characters (no spaces) at a minimum\r\n<strong>5.<\/strong> Six figures and two tables at a minimum\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n\u00bbThese lists are fascinating. But they are also interesting in terms of seeing what it is that characterises a paper with a lot of citations,\u00ab says Claus Emmeche, who is an associate professor at the Research Group on History and Philosophy of Science \u00a0at the Faculty of Science. He adds that the lists \u00bbhelp answer the question: 'Why do scientists cite papers?'\u00ab\r\n<h3>Cite for many different reasons<\/h3>\r\nWhen scientists apply for funding \u2014 and when government agencies and foundations assess scientists \u2014\u00a0 it can be with reference to the number and quality of their citations, sometimes expressed as their \u2018h-index\u2019. But not all of the reasons for citing another paper have to do with the article\u2019s originality in a field, according to Claus Emmeche.\r\n\r\nThe pioneer in counting citations as a method, Eugene Garfield, mentioned a few of them in his own (see fact box lower right) seminal paper.\r\n\r\n\u00bbScientists cite to do a number of things. To pay homage to pioneers, to give credit for work, to provide background reading, to correct the work of others, to substantiate the work of others, and even to disclaim the work of others, just to mention a few of them,\u00ab says Claus Emmeche.\r\n\r\nThe University Post's list extracted and analysed the top 10 list of articles with high citation numbers from the<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scopus.com\/\">Scopus database<\/a>.<\/strong> It shows the most cited articles, all-time, and throughout recent history, by scientists who at the time of publishing were associated with a Danish university.\r\n<h3>Reveals how scientists cite<\/h3>\r\nThe list renders a surprising overview of the research coming out of Denmark that was \u2014 and is \u2014 hot among the international scientific community.\r\n<div class=\"factbox\">\r\n<p class=\"factbox-header feature-color\">Why do scientists, really, cite other scientists?<\/p>\r\nEugene Garfield, a pioneer in citation indices, listed 15 reasons why scientists cite other scientists. Not all of them are simply giving credit to original work. <strong>When scientists cite they may also be:<\/strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Identifying methodology, equipment, etc.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Providing leads to poorly disseminated, poorly indexed, or uncited work<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Disclaiming the work or ideas of others (negative claims)<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Disputing priority claims of others (negative homage)<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n \r\n\r\nSource: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.garfield.library.upenn.edu\/essays\/V1p084y1962-73.pdf\">'Can Citation Indexing Be Automated?'<\/a>, <strong>E. Garfield<\/strong> in Statistical Association Methods for Mechanized Documentation (1964)\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\nAll of the articles have had a large scientific impact. But they also reveal something about how scientists cite.\r\n\r\nTop of the list, for example, is a paper co-authored by British geologist David Harper, <a href=\"https:\/\/palaeo-electronica.org\/2001_1\/past\/past.pdf\">'Past: Paleontological statistics software package for education and data analysis'<\/a>. He was working at the University of Copenhagen 20 years ago when this paper was released.\r\n<blockquote>Highly quoted papers have brief titles, use common words in the title, have six authors or more, are relatively long papers, and have six figures and two tables as a minimum\r\n<p class=\"quotee\">Claus Emmeche, associate professor, summarising the work of Mohammed Elgendi<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\nDavid Harper, now retired and an emeritus professor in the UK, was a pioneer in introducing numerical and statistical methods into the field of geology. He freely <a href=\"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/most-cited-danish-article-was-about-using-statistics-on-rocks-and-fossils\">admits in this interview with the University Post<\/a> that the high number of citations has a lot to do with the fact that users of his free software package were asked to cite his paper when they used the software in their own research.\r\n\r\nFurther down the list is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S037026931200857X\">2012 scientific paper announcing the discovery of the Higgs Boson particle at the CERN facility<\/a>. \u00a0It had 2,932 \u2014 yes that is right, two-thousand-nine-hundred-and-thirty-two \u2014 co-authors, some of them associated with Danish universities. It was a huge scientific achievement, and the paper announcing the discovery is no doubt on the top 10 list for good reason. But citation practices in the natural sciences play a part in it being at the top also.\r\n\r\nAnother question is what it is that characterizes highly cited papers.\r\n\r\nMohammed Elgendi, a postdoc at the University of British Columbia in Canada, recently found, according to Claus Emmeche, that \u00bbhighly quoted papers have brief titles, use common words in the title, have six authors or more, are relatively long papers, and have six figures and two tables as a minimum.\u00ab (see fact box top right).\r\n\r\nThis last point has to do with the fact that the figures and tables somehow correlate with the paper showing new work being done in the field.\r\n<h3>Different citation culture in humanities<\/h3>\r\nHighly cited papers tend to be ones that report discoveries, according to Claus Emmeche. But they are also ones that \u2018map\u2019 a field, or ones that do metaanalysis \u2014 examining a number of other studies on the same subject.\r\n\r\nThese papers will be widely read. And widely cited.\r\n\r\nIf you want to top the citation rankings as a scientist you have to do papers with many co-authors.\r\n\r\nThis is one of the reasons why humanities scholars hardly ever fare well in citation databases. Humanities and non-empirical social scientists have fewer authors, write more often books compared to articles, and have a different culture of citation. <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.lse.ac.uk\/impactofsocialsciences\/2014\/04\/23\/academic-papers-citation-rates-remler\/\">82 per cent of humanities articles, for example, are never cited. The numbers are 27 per cent for the natural sciences and 32 per cent for the social sciences.<\/a>\r\n<h3>Multiple fields, multiple citations<\/h3>\r\nIn the natural or empirical sciences, having multiple authors on a paper has become more common in recent history. This is not just because scientists are trying to game the citation system, according to Claus Emmeche.\r\n\r\nTake an article that is well cited, and which has multiple authors like, for example, <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/25352553\/\">\u2018STRING v10: Protein-protein interaction networks, integrated over the tree of life\u2019<\/a>. This article is just outside the all time top 10 list for Denmark, but on the top 10 for the University of Copenhagen.\r\n<blockquote>The citation indices are not only measuring the field, they are ... changing the game.\r\n<p class=\"quotee\">Claus Emmeche, associate professor<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n\u00bbNew findings nowadays need to integrate different tools and competences and this can be seen in the titles. \u2018The protein-protein\u2019 article is not only chemistry but also network science, and each of these scientific communities will gain from the work, and scientists from each of the fields will cite the article,\u00ab Claus Emmeche says.\r\n\r\nThe Higgs Boson paper with the thousands of authors is another example of multiple authorship, in this case to an extreme degree.\r\n\r\n\u00bbThere again you have fundamental physics, but also communities of applied physicists, engineers building the machinery, computer scientists analysing the data,\u00ab says Claus Emmeche.\r\n<h3>Changes the focus of science<\/h3>\r\nThere may be a correlation between a paper\u2019s \u2018impact\u2019 on a scientific field and its high numbers of citations. But of course there are other ways to measure impact, and a paper may have been important even though it does not score high on the citation rankings.\r\n\r\nAnd the measuring, indexing and ranking \u2014like what the University Post is doing with this article \u2014 subtly changes how science is practiced, according to Claus Emmeche.\r\n\r\n\u00bbIt becomes problematic when you install these indices to evaluate science. When scientists ask for funding, they are checked for their \u2018h-index\u2019 and their citation numbers. Scientists in turn then attempt to manipulate their publishing practices to boost their own h-index scores. So the citation indices are not only measuring the field, they are ever so slightly changing the game. It changes the focus of science. It becomes a part of the competition game for scientists.\u00ab\r\n\r\n<em>You can see the University Post <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/the-top-10-most-cited-scientific-articles-from-denmark\">top 10 list here.<\/a><\/strong><\/em>\n<!-- end of module 1 -->\n","post_title":"Danish numbers reveal how scientists get cited by other scientists","post_excerpt":"The scientific articles that are cited by many other scientists are seen as having a high 'impact'.

His article has the<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/the-top-10-most-cited-scientific-articles-from-denmark\/\">highest number of scholarly citations \u2014 among all articles from scientists affiliated to Danish universities \u2014 all-time<\/a>.<\/strong>\r\n\r\nLater, when the University Post reached him by phone, he said that he was aware that the paper was highly cited, but not that it was the <em>most<\/em> cited of all 'Danish' papers.\r\n<h3>Software set students off on new research path<\/h3>\r\nTo understand what the paper is about, you have to go back to the 1990s, when new software came via a floppy disk.\r\n\r\nMost of us now take for granted that you download software via the internet. But it was not always this way, and a floppy disk-based piece of software called \u2018PAST\u2019 that Professor David Harper and a colleague developed in the 1990s has had a lasting legacy on how scientists now do geology.\r\n\r\nThe article from 2001, that describes the PAST software's purpose and function, is the most cited, all-time, by a scientist affiliated to a Danish university. According to Professor David Harper, their article helped push the use of statistics and numerical methods in the study of rocks, fossils and the Earth.\r\n\r\n\u00bbIn the 19th and early 20th century geology was largely done subjectively, through observing specimens with little reference to numerical and statistical methods. Nowadays, by contrast, we use big samples, measure everything and base our analyses on this.\u00a0 When we are describing fossils, for example, and the distribution of fossils through time and space, we use numbers and statistical methods as a matter of course. Our software package helped students start their own research programmes using numerical and statistical methods in geology, so I think it has had lasting value since the time of its first release,\u00ab he says.\n<!-- end of module 1 -->\nHe himself was at the University of Copenhagen in the period 1998-2011. And his own fieldwork offered an example of how the software could be applied.\r\n\r\n\u00bbWhen I was working in the north of Greenland, and listing the fauna found in the rocks we could build up a list of all the species and compare it numerically to others in other areas across the globe of the same geological time period. We could then calculate the diversity of the set of species and map their global geographic distribution,\u00ab he explains.\r\n\r\nNowadays scientists typically analyse their data via multi-purpose programming languages like \u2018Python\u2019 and \u2018R\u2019. Both the data and the software to analyse it can be hosted on servers elsewhere, or in the \u2018cloud\u2019.\r\n\r\nBut not back then.\r\n\r\n\u00bbWhen I had my first teaching job in Galway in Ireland, a lot of the students did not have any background in statistics and numerical methods. All statistical work was done on mainframe computers, if at all. But a colleague Paul Ryan and I developed software for microcomputers, something called the 'PALSTAT' package for a large format floppy disc. It was cumbersome, but the students could experiment, and the interface was quite easy to use, but this was still just a standalone operation in the geology department. Then in the 1990s we started to migrate it to MS DOS platform, and people started using it on Amstrad computers.\u00ab\r\n<h3>Free, but asked people to cite the paper<\/h3>\r\nIt was when he moved to Copenhagen in 1998 that things really took off for David Harper\u2019s programme.\r\n\r\n\u00bbI met a mathematician and post doc, who was researching palaeontology called \u00d8yvind Hammer on a visit to the Palaeontological Museum in Oslo. I suggested that we migrate it to the Windows platform. All of a sudden it morphed into a real monster package. It was really exciting!\u00ab\r\n\r\n\u00bbBut what should we do with it? Should we sell the software? In the end our decision was to make it free, but we wanted people to cite our paper. So we published it for free, at the same time asking people to cite the paper if they used the package in their work,\u00ab David Harper explains.\r\n\r\nSo this is where most of the 18,786 citations come from.\n<!-- end of module 2 -->\nThe original idea for the package was his, but his colleague \u00d8yvind Hammer was \u00bbthe brains behind expanding the scope of the software and its programming, and together we developed the textbook Paleontological Data Analysis (2006),\u00ab he says.\r\n\r\nAs a geologist, David Harper has focussed on fossil brachiopods, which are animals with shells on the upper and lower surfaces, abundant as fossils, that were attached to the seafloor and were very common during the Paleozoic era 545-248 million years ago.\r\n<h3>Lasting legacy<\/h3>\r\nBut Brachiopods aside, David Harper still sees the software package as one of his most lasting legacies.\r\n\r\n\u00bbIt is strange in a way, because I have written many books, textbooks and papers, but some people are rather dismissive and say: It is only a software package and not fundamental science. But it has helped students and colleagues start and evolve their own research programmes using numerical and statistical methods in the field, so I think it has been of real value.\u00ab\r\n\r\nDavid T. Harper is emeritus professor at the University of Durham in England and chair of the<a href=\"https:\/\/stratigraphy.org\/\"> International Commission for Stratigraphy<\/a> that has the last say in defining the Earth\u2019s geological time periods.\r\n\r\nHe now lives just across the border in Scotland.\n<!-- end of module 3 -->\n","post_title":"Most cited Danish article was about using statistics on rocks and fossils","post_excerpt":"The most cited scientific article, of all-time, from a Danish university is a description of a software package developed and authored by a British paleontologist who used to work at the University of Copenhagen.
