Record A Record A Reference Record B Record B Record D Record D Reference D is a “Related Record” of A, because B is cited by both of them Record C Record C A is a “Cited Reference” of C, i.e. A is cited by C A is a “Citing Reference” of B, i.e. B is cited by A 40

Exercise 1.Search for topics “social and cognitive development” 2.Refine with keywords “language”, “school” 3.Limit to “Article” document How many records found? What is the most highly cited record? How many times this article is cited? 41
