A guide to the Nature Index
"The Nature Index provides absolute and fractional counts of article publication at the institutional and national level and, as such, is an indicator of global high-quality research output and collaboration."
"A country/territory or an institution is given a Count of 1 for each article that has at least one author from that country/territory or institution."
"The total Share available per article is 1, which is shared among all authors under the assumption that each contributed equally."
The Nature Index is a database that monitors author affiliations and institutional relationships, focusing on contributions to high-quality natural and health science journals. It provides absolute and fractional counts of article publications, serving as an indicator of global research output and collaboration. The Count metric assigns a value of 1 for each article with an author from a specific institution or country, while the Share metric allocates fractional contributions based on authorship.
