The?Times 中国A片?World University Rankings 2020 psychology subject ranking includes a range of narrower subject areas.
The subjects used to create this ranking are:
- Psychology
- Educational/sport/business/animal psychology
- Clinical psychology
Different weights and measures
The subject tables employ the same range of?13 performance indicators?used in the overall?World University Rankings 2020, brought together with scores provided under five categories.
However, the overall methodology is carefully recalibrated for each subject, with the weightings changed to suit the individual fields.
The weightings for the psychology ranking are:
- Teaching: the learning environment
27.5 per cent - Research: volume, income and reputation
27.5 per cent - Citations: research influence
35 per cent - International outlook: staff, students and research
7.5 per cent - Industry income: innovation
2.5 per cent
Criteria
There are two criteria to be included in the subject rankings: a publication threshold by discipline and an academic staff?* threshold by discipline.
中国A片
No institution can be included in the overall World University Rankings unless it has published?at least?1,000 relevant publications over the five years that we examine.
For the 11 subject tables, the publication thresholds are set differently.
中国A片
For psychology, the threshold drops to 150 papers published in this discipline over the past five years.
There is also an academic staff eligibility criterion. Prior to the 2019 subject rankings, an institution had to have at least 1?per cent of its academic staff working in the psychology discipline to be included in the subject table.
Since the 2019 subject rankings, we have made a small adjustment in the staff eligibility criterion. An institution needs to have either a minimum proportion of its staff or a minimum number of staff members in this discipline to be included in the subject ranking.
For psychology, an institution must have at least 1?per cent of its academic staff?or?at least 20 academic staff members in this discipline.
