Research Impact

To find your Scopus Author ID:

1. Go to Scopus
2. Do an Author Search for your name and Affiliation (i.e. Western University)
3. If you find a record for yourself, make a note of your Author ID. You can add this Author ID to your ORCID profile.

Using this Author ID you can also get citation alerts and request corrections of your details in Scopus.

Author metrics may be used for tenure and promotion applications, grant proposals and other research performance-based decisions; therefore, it is important to ensure each researcher's profile correctly reflects their publishing information.

Despite the sophisticated algorithmic profiling used by Scopus, algorithms in general can rarely match all documents to a single profile with 100% accuracy.

The Scopus Author Feedback Wizard allows researchers to review their Scopus profiles and submit feedback, including the ability to:

• Set a preferred name
• Merge profiles
• Add and remove documents to and from your profile
• Update affiliation

See Scopus: Profile and content corrections Support Center for more information.

To link your Scopus Author ID and ORCID:

4. If you have an Author ID, select ‘Connect to ORCID’ (located in 'Profile Actions')
