In this poster, we describe partial findings from a larger study that explores the influences of three different citation bases (reference entries, in‐text citations, and essential citations) on the results of citation analysis in social sciences and humanities. Various citation characteristics such as document type, document language, self‐citation rate, cited half life, and subject distributions of cited works will systematically compared to understand whether the selection of citation base did have an influence on the results. The completed analyses of the sociology discipline will be presented in this poster.
