Ranking of countries by scientific output

[Mughal-Prince]

Great.So India produces over 12.2 times More scientific documents than Pakistan.

Compare ur likewise in the field. Their is no harm to accept the reality we are way behind India in science and technology we are even short from Iran let alone others but I hope if we have a visionery leadership we may turn into a new leaf in no time.

Nope. I do not agree that Iran will overtake Turkey. I think that both countries will share a similar scientific level in the future.

I don't have time for these childish games, friend. People can use their eyes and see whether Iran has overtaken certain nations or not.
Iran's scientific growth was 11 time faster than world average during sanctions, one can only imagine the pace that could be attained now that much more funding will be available.
Iran was ranked 48th in 2000, 20th in 2010 and in 2013-14 16th. The trend is clear. More openness due to sanctions relief now will also see HI rise greatly as well.

Just simply wait and see where the rankings go in the future.

wow Germany at 4th awesome

 

[Kyusuibu Honbu]

Difference between India and US is 1:5, by mid next decade I wonder if its possible to achieve 1:2 ration

 

[RiazHaq]

^Interesting so in 2014 India produced 14 times more scientific research than Pakistan.

@Donatello @RiazHaq @Windjammer

Look at the H-index that measures the impact of research produced which is much more important than the raw quantity. Pakistan's H-index is 148 to India's 383, a ratio of 2.5

 

[Post Colonnial]

I know lacking more accurate ways of measuring research output, we use things like citations and associated indices. But these only measure INPUTS to research and NOT output of reaserch.

For example, China and India produce tens of thousands of Phds every year most of whom generate dozens of papers and citations...sometimes I think they trade citations to just muscle up their scores! So much of it is useless derivative drivel good only for getting their degree.

We need better measures.

I do agree that China and India increase their chances for real scientific outcome when they create more and more PHds. It is like buying more lottery tickets.

You are welcome.

Brother that guy is right, why are you keep on posting about Iran. They are not our competition. They are much poorer than us and behind in nearly everything.

I'm just trying to show him that Iran is not perfect. No country in our region is perfect (including Turkey). Several aspects highlight that the regional differences aren't very wide. Unfortunately, there are even negative tendencies in Iran. But he did not accept this.

It's the first time that I meet an Iranian who is so one-sided.

 

[yolo2016]

Of course America leads. We don't put rubbish papers to get the quantity going, to then have a low response/citations.

 

[Malik Alashter]

Iraq jumped from 89 to 69 20 spots not bad but all in all Saddam and his follower nailed the country real bad I'm waiting to see this year 2015 if there is any progress It's too bad alas for a country like Iraq.

Lol.H-index cannot be calculated in per capita terms as it gives the scientific quality of an average science paper published l.So this means not only Pakistan produces way less scientific research than India but also much poor in quality in average.

So it takes 12 times more output to get 2.5 more effectiveness? Way to go!!!

So it takes 12 times more output to get 2.5 more effectiveness? Way to go!!!

Lolzz.Average HH-index decreases with increase in output.
For example China has 3.62 times the research output of India but her H-index score is only 1.29 times of India's

Some people often think too much of themselves and try to punch above their weight class. They then get smacked silly by heavyweights and wonder what happened. It's just the fact that if you are a featherweight trying to fight heavyweights, you're going to get destroyed. That's why they are separate in boxing.

Better step away from the ring otherwise you'll end up like a random kid fighting Yip Man or Mike Tyson.

Just as I expected, science is dominated primarily by the West and the US is still the leading power.

hmmmmmm,,,,,,,,,,the U.S has as much as the next top 5 combined??
Surprised China is ahead of us. However we are still second only to the U.S in citations, self citations, citations per document, and H index(which is one of the most important parameters here, since it measures both the productivity and citation effect.impact of a scholars publications). So not bad at all, though more needs to be done.

I noticed that all the P5 +1 countries top the list (outside Japan) bar Russia who is lagging behind Australia and even India? Putin needs to reform Russia from its over dependence on natural resources,nuclear industry and weapons. needs more diversification.

Keep repeating this same comment hoping people will agree with you as a form of pity

I've already addressed your retarded comments like 50 times. Since you ran away and did not reply to my previous comment, I'll give you a snip of it:

Iran is already ahead of Turkey in quantity as of 2014. This is what matter. I don't care where turkey was a decades ago. Today you're behind Iran. Don't like that fact? Go kiss picture of that jew ataturd and see if it makes you feel better.
The best way to judge your universities is to check for the output of your country and I cannot see anything worth mentioning. You keep running away from answering the question I keep asking. I am still waiting to see what work your super duppa unis have done. In what fields are you even worth mentioning? In most major field, Iran is way ahead of turkey, such a space, nuclear, stem cell, robotics etc etc. Where are you people in these fields? Brain drain has to do with economy and not scientific ranking. I suppose even this simple fact is beyond your understanding.

I am only interested to see the scientific output of a country not how wonderful your think your unis are because clearly, they aren't even worth anything as turkey as a whole is nothing to talk about in scientific fields. You jokers will not in the next 20 years probably even manage to build a heavy water reactor, or launch even an apple into space

I dont understand why you people are insulting each other for no good reason. You are both doing well in this field. SSo why not be more respectful when debating against each other? Jeez........always fighting even over non issues.
Turkey is ahead of Iran in some fields and Iran is ahead of Turkey in others. However overall we cant deny that Turkey is ahead of Iran, since its more advanced/developed and productive compared to Iran , even though they have virtually no natural resources unlike many middle eastern countries.

I am only saying these people are blinded etc and cannot accept reality. It is very clear that Iran is ahead in science output as of 2013 to present and will leave them in the dust in the future. Also, no, there is denying they are overall ahead of Iran. Ahead in what? They have nothing even worth mentioning. They rely way too much on the outside for their technology etc. In all important areas like space, nuclear, nanotech etc etc Iran is very ahead. We don't even see these people as competition. They are simply too behind.
Economics wise if you mean, then yes they are ahead, however, are you surprised? Iran went through the most severe sanctions in modern times bro. But eventually, they'll be overtaken in this sector as well.

As for resources. That can actually be a curse (search "resource curse"). Saudi arabia has resources but where are they? No need to assume turks would be any better off the saudi arabia were they resource rich.
