Criteria
Two criteria determine eligibility for the?色盒直播?subject rankings: a publication threshold by discipline and an academic staff* threshold by discipline.
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 (2018-2022 for the 2024 rankings).?
For the 11 subject tables, the publication thresholds are different. For psychology, the threshold drops to 150 papers published in this discipline over the five-year period.
There is also an academic 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 either at least 1?per cent of its academic staff?or?at least 20 academic staff in this discipline.
*Academic staff is defined as the full-time equivalent number of staff employed in an academic post, for example, lecturer, reader or professor.
