Abstract

The study aims to explore the online attention received by the top twenty highly cited publications on plagiarism published between 2011 to 2020 from India by using the observation method. The bibliographical data were collected from SCOPUS database and the altmetric data were collected by using the altmetric harvesting tools AltmetricIt and PlumX. The study's findings show that the citation count and the Altmetric Attention Score of the top twenty highly cited publications on plagiarism published between 2011 to 2020 from India are much lower than those from other countries. The Spearman correlation analysis of the citation count and AAS shows that they are not correlated. The study hopes that in the future, the publications to be published from India on important subjects such as plagiarism will have a more significant online impact on the research community and will help the authors and the publishers to understand the current status of the popularity of their research publications and the impact they have made on the research community.
