该文件的目的是评估的研究生产力和性能的国家落在中东。这些数据来自汤姆森路透社的研究分析工具InCites。数据收集时间为33年（1981年至2013年），数据集为“全球比较”，报告名称为“国家比较”。数据收集自15个中东国家（根据InCites分类），即巴林、埃及、伊朗、伊拉克、以色列、约旦、科威特、黎巴嫩、阿曼、卡塔尔、沙特阿拉伯、叙利亚、土耳其、阿拉伯联合酋长国和也门。每个国家都根据六个参数进行评估：Web of Science文件总数;总引用数;每份文件的平均引用次数，引用文件的百分比;相对于世界的影响;以及总体绩效指标。在所有这些参数中，以色列占据第一位。土耳其在科学文献网络总数和总引用数方面排名第二。科威特被引用的文件比例第二高，黎巴嫩在相对影响力方面排名第二（与世界相比）。在总体表现方面，卡塔尔排名第二。
The aim of the paper is to evaluate the research productivity and performance of countries that fall in the Middle East. The data was gathered from the research analytical tool of Thomson Reuters, InCites. The data was collected over a period of 33 years (1981 through 2013) with "global comparisons" as the dataset and "compare countries/territories" as the report name under "national comparisons". The data was collected from 15 countries of Middle East (as per InCites categorization) viz; Bahrain, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, and Yemen. Each country was assessed on the basis of six parameters: total no. of web of science documents; total citation count; average citations per documents, percentage of cited documents; impact relative to the world; and aggregate performance indicator. On all these parameters, Israel occupies the first position. The 2nd rank in terms of total web of science documents and total citation count is occupied by Turkey. Kuwait has 2nd highest percentage of cited documents, and Lebanon occupies 2nd rank in terms of relative impact (in comparison to world). In terms of aggregate performance, Qatar ranks 2nd.
