Hi all

An update on this query - the student has completed their dissertation and thanked Science Metrix for the help offered. 

'In terms of output, the analysis by the company provided the best-estimate of every author’s gender for each publication in my query. The analysis wasn’t perfect however as some results returned unisex (U) or unknown (X) genders for some authors. 

They did send me a helpful document about how the algorithm assigns gender, including its limitations (http://www.science-metrix.com/en/publications/reports#/en/gender-report).'

Best wishes, and thanks again to all the responses,
Ruth

Head of Scholarly Communications Management
