Abstract

Abstract  
International collaboration enhances citation impact. Collaborating with a country increments the citations received from
it. But some collaborating countries provide greater increments in this sense than others, and likewise some countries receive
greater increments from their partner countries than others. We observed a certain tendency for these increments to be lower
in countries with greater impacts. Also, all the countries studied had higher Domestic Impacts as a result of collaborating,
although this increment was less than that obtained from other countries. Finally, there were differences in the behaviour
of the countries between the various scientific disciplines, with the effects being greatest in Social Sciences, followed
by Engineering.
