How can I determine whether the number of citations received by a paper is higher than expected for its field and age, or what percentile it falls into?
The total citation count for a paper in a specific field and year can be compared with the average citation rate in the Baselines section. If the citation count is greater than the average for the appropriate field and year, then it has exceeded the expected value. The level of citation can also be gauged by finding the closest percentage in the Percentiles table for the appropriate field and year. The available Percentile levels are 0.01%, 0.1%, 1.0%, 10%, 20.00%, and 50.00% (50.00% corresponds to the median citation value). The percentage value indicates the fraction of papers in that field and year having that number of citations or greater.
