scite: Reference Check

What is a reference check?

You can check how other articles have used each of your references and whether there are any editorial concerns (e.g. retraction) with your references.

 

How to conduct a reference check?

1. Expand [Product] on the top and select [Reference Check].

 


 

2. Upload your manuscript to scite by following the on-screen instructions.

 


 

 

3. Access your report by clicking [Click here to see it].

 


 

4. Here is an example. The uploaded paper referenced 41 other publications. 53 citation statements are extracted from the uploaded paper ranked by the editorial concerned. The first two citation statements are from the reference with a Retracted label. You can also see the scite information under each reference. 

 

 

Where to find my reference check reports?
