Clarivate enriquece la plataforma Web of Science con la integración de ProQuest Dissertations and Theses Global

Descubrimiento y acceso a >5,5 millones de disertaciones y tesis globales para hacer más eficiente la investigación

Londres, Reino Unido, 13 de julio de 2023 - Clarivate Plc (NYSE: CLVT), líder mundial en la conexión de personas y organizaciones con la inteligencia en la que pueden confiar para transformar su mundo, ha anunciado hoy la integración de ProQuest™ Dissertations & Theses Global con su reconocida plataforma Web of Science™. Esta integración permite a los investigadores acceder de forma rápida y sencilla a una vasta colección multidisciplinar de erudición temprana de más de 5,5 millones de disertaciones y tesis globales.

La nueva solución, ProQuest™ Dissertations & Theses Citation Index, ofrece una experiencia de investigación completa con acceso para descubrir la investigación de carrera temprana junto con revistas, preprints y otras fuentes académicas dentro de una única plataforma. Al eliminar la necesidad de buscar en múltiples bases de datos, proporcionará un flujo de trabajo optimizado para estudiantes e investigadores, facilitando su éxito académico e impulsando nuevos avances en la investigación.

Clarivate se compromete a satisfacer las opiniones y peticiones de los usuarios. En una encuesta reciente realizada a los usuarios de Web of Science, los investigadores expresaron su interés por las disertaciones y tesis como la fuente más deseada de contenido secundario y complementario. En respuesta, Clarivate ha integrado ProQuest Dissertations & Theses Global con la Web of Science para ofrecer una colección multidisciplinar de tesis y disertaciones de más de 4.100 instituciones de más de 60 países.

Esta integración permite a investigadores y estudiantes llevar a cabo revisiones bibliográficas más amplias al incorporar estudios inéditos y perspectivas diversas. El proceso de investigación no suele ser sencillo y es importante para el avance del conocimiento abarcar tanto los hallazgos científicos positivos como los negativos, lo que garantiza a los investigadores el acceso a una visión completa de las pruebas científicas disponibles y puede evitar la duplicación de esfuerzos en investigaciones posteriores.

Además, los investigadores pueden mostrar sus primeros logros profesionales a compañeros y evaluadores indicando su disertación o tesis en su perfil de investigador de Web of Science. Clarivate está trabajando activamente para añadir Referencias Citadas Vinculadas y Registros Relacionados - cuyo lanzamiento está previsto para el cuarto trimestre de 2023 - para mejorar aún más las conexiones entre las tesis y la plataforma Web of Science.

This volume is a timely intervention that not only helps demystify the idea of a digital dissertation for students and their advisors, but will be broadly applicable to the work of librarians, administrators, and anyone else concerned with the future of graduate study in the humanities and digital scholarly publishing.

Roxanne Shirazi, The City University of New York

Digital dissertations have been a part of academic research for years now, yet there are still many questions surrounding their processes. Are interactive dissertations significantly different from their paper-based counterparts? What are the effects of digital projects on doctoral education? How does one choose and defend a digital dissertation? This book explores the wider implications of digital scholarship across institutional, geographic, and disciplinary divides.

The volume is arranged in two sections: the first, written by senior scholars, addresses conceptual concerns regarding the direction and assessment of digital dissertations in the broader context of doctoral education. The second section consists of case studies by PhD students whose research resulted in a natively digital dissertation that they have successfully defended. These early-career researchers have been selected to represent a range of disciplines and institutions.

Despite the profound effect of incorporated digital tools on dissertations, the literature concerning them is limited. This volume aims to provide a fresh, up-to-date view on the digital dissertation, considering the newest technological advances. It is especially relevant in the European context where digital dissertations, mostly in arts-based research, are more popular.

Shaping the Digital Dissertation aims to provide insights, precedents and best practices to graduate students, doctoral advisors, institutional agents, and dissertation committees. As digital dissertations have a potential impact on the state of research as a whole, this edited collection will be a useful resource for the wider academic community and anyone interested in the future of doctoral studies.
