Centre for Consumer Society Research / University of Helsinki
TAILOMETRICS develops an evaluation system to measure and forecast the impact of FRIF joint research projects. The project builds on the evaluation experience of its members, traditional research impact metrics (bibliometrics, and scientometrics), and also ‘alternative metrics’ that can be used to forecast research impact. Altmetrics can base on information on development of different fields of science (emerging research fields, topics) and information on social networks. TAILOMETRICS is built on desk research (topic modeling, electronic databases), multi-actor workshops, surveys, and network analysis (research collaboration). TAILOMETRICS will develop research evaluation process and toolkit and a visualization tool for showcasing research impact.
