摘要:Purpose: The main aim of the study is to showcase the productivity and relative impact of research from the University of Kashmir in comparison to the rest of the world. Methodology: The study is based on the application of various InCites indicators for the purpose of analysis. Findings: Research output of the University of Kashmir has shown promising growth except with a negative impact for some years which can be attributed to the political instability in the Valley of Kashmir. The number of papers published from the University of Kashmir are less for the initial years with a promising growth over the later years. Even the citation graph including the ones cited in international sources has also improved over the years. The relative impact of documents has also shown promising growth. Chemistry; Plant and Animal Sciences; Physics; Mathematics; Clinical Medicine and Environment/Ecology are the subjects having highest growth. The subject of Physics witnesses a majority of works published in international sources. The disciplines Chemistry; Plant & Animal Science; and Clinical Medicine receive higher citations. Relative impact in terms of subject area in total indicates that it is high for Engineering; Computer Science; Mathematics; Plant & Animal Science; and Clinical Medicine with Plant & Animal Science; Clinical Medicine; Space Science; and Social Sciences, General in lead in terms of relative impact to the subject area in international sources. Research implications: The study is limited to the data available through InCites. Future research: The study is first of its kind deciphering the research output and performance from a politically unstable region, Kashmir. The use of InCites as a comparison tool is also first of its kind. Keywords: Research output; Research output evaluation; Research performance; Incites; Performance indicators; University of Kashmir Paper type: Research
