This is a step-by-step guide for NTU's Promotion and Tenure (PT) candidates in non-STEM fields (including computer science and mathematics) on how to generate a citation report from Google Scholar Profile.
Please contact the Library after you have created and updated your Google Scholar Profile.
Please expect a turnaround time of at least 2 weeks from the Library for a verified PT Citation Report. It will take less time if your Google Scholar Profile is accurate, clean and up-to-date.
4. Add publications to your Google Scholar Profile by selecting “Add article groups” or “Add articles”. You may search using your name and/or publication title. Do NOT add article manually.
5. If you find '∗' beside the citation count, it indicates that the "Cited by" count includes citations that might not match this article. Check if the citations tally by clicking on the article's title and looking for "Scholar articles" with '∗' next to their title.
-- If the citations match, no further action is required from you.
-- If the citations do not match and are not authored by you, please remove.

4. To merge any duplicate publications in your Google Scholar Profile (e.g. two records of the same title), select the records and click "Merge".
5. Check each and every item in the Publication List against your Google Scholar Profile. Resolve any discrepancy by using the following checklist:
