International Conference on Advances in Social Network Analysis and Mining (ASONAM)

This page presents a comprehensive ranking of scientific conferences in the field of Psychology, meticulously curated to reflect scholarly excellence within the discipline. The ranking has been prepared by Research.com, recognized as one of the leading websites for science research across all major academic fields, including Psychology, and a trusted provider of scientific data and analyses since 2014.

The ranking methodology is based on a unique bibliometric score developed by Research.com, which incorporates both the estimated h-index and the number of leading scientists who have presented at each conference over the last three years. This distinctive scoring system aims to provide an accurate and insightful assessment of each conference’s impact and the caliber of its contributors. The Impact Score values used for this ranking were gathered on 2024-11-27, ensuring that the information reflects the most current trends and developments in Psychology research.

The compilation of this ranking involved an extensive and detailed process in which over 377 conferences were evaluated. Candidates were selected following a rigorous inspection of more than 871 scientific documents published over the last three years by 10,697 influential and respected scientists in the domain of Psychology. This exhaustive approach underscores the depth of research, the stringent standards applied, and the complexity of the analysis conducted by the expert team behind this initiative.

Papers citation over time

A key indicator for each conference is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.

The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.

Publication chance based on affiliation

The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions at the conference edition to all articles published within that conference. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the conference.

The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.

During the most recent 2017 edition, 2.38% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 7.32% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 7.80% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 18.05% of all publications and 66.83% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of conferences they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same conference from year to year.

The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the conference in relation to all participants in a given year.

Returning Institution Index

The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.

The experience to innovation index

Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing at a conference. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a conference, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).

The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:

• Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
• Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
• Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
• Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
• Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
