Title: Run 12 Scopus Advanced Searches and Export Results (CSV) — PhD Literature Search
I am a PhD candidate in Management and need help with a structured literature search in Scopus. I do not currently have full Scopus access, so I am looking for someone who has it, typically through a university or institutional subscription. Scopus Preview (the free version) is NOT sufficient.
THE TASK
- Run 12 predefined search queries in Scopus "Advanced document search". The queries will be provided in a text file, ready to copy and paste.
- For each query, export ALL results as a CSV file, including the fields "Citation information" and "Abstract & keywords".
- Take a screenshot of each results page showing the number of results.
- Note the date the searches were run.
No analysis, writing or reading of papers is required. This is a precise search-and-export task. Estimated time: about 1 hour.
DELIVERABLES
1. 12 CSV files, named A.csv to L.csv
2. 12 screenshots showing the result count for each query
3. The date the searches were run
REQUIREMENTS
- Full, legitimate Scopus access. Please confirm this when applying; the Scopus logo must NOT show "Preview".
- Queries must be pasted exactly as provided, without changes.
- Only the exported records (citations and abstracts) are needed. Please do NOT send full-text PDFs of articles.
- I will not share or request login credentials. You run the searches on your own account.
NICE TO HAVE
- Access to Web of Science as well (the same searches may be requested there as a follow-up task).
- Experience with academic or systematic literature searches.
TO APPLY, PLEASE STATE
- How you access Scopus (e.g., university library subscription)
- Your expected delivery time
- Your price for the task
The instruction sheet and the text file with the queries will be shared once the task is agreed.
