Resumo: Objective: the study aims to determine the visibility and the impact of the Cuban scientific production in the Emerging Sources Citation Index to contribute as necessary to include this database in the evaluation system within the process of institutional scientific evaluation in Cuba. Method: from a descriptive bibliometric approach, we analyze the main data of the primary and citing scientific production that circulate by ESCI. The Cuban scientific production belongs to time frame covered by ESCI (2005-2021) and was delimited in the last 10 years (2012-2021). Results: when analyzing the 19 Cuban newspapers indexed by non-ESCI, it was obtained as a result that 3 Cuban newspapers from institutions of the province of Cienfuegos stand out as the most productive (Universidad y Sociedad, Conrado Magazine and Medisur), not the same, only University and Society and the Cuban Journal of Physics reach the highest values of the h-index for a value of 5. The ESCI is a database that allows a closer approximation of the evaluation of the research in Social Sciences, taking into consideration the thematic categories that most We represent the indexed Cuban scientific production. During the period from 2005 to 2021, ESCI makes 43.4% of the Cuban scientific production visible within the main collection of the WoS, which shows that not only the main indices should be taken into account for the evaluation of scientific production in Cuba. The Cuban scientific production in ESCI has had a growing trend where the Cuban newspapers indexed in this database represent 56% of the total volume analyzed. The Cuban research visible from the ESCI affects 94% of the thematic categories according to citing scientific production, where they are corroborated by 143 countries and where the Cuban research impacts 2,452 newspapers. 40% of the self-citations in this database come from Cuban newspapers. Conclusions: it is essential for the evaluation of two scientific processes in Cuba to include the ESCI database of the main WoS collection, taking into account the performance achieved since the beginning of the indexing of scientific production. It constitutes a source of information with levels of indexation and evaluation of the quality of journals. It is also important to consider self-citation as a phenomenon that can lead to inbreeding and harm future scientific visibility. This study presents for the first time the situation of Cuban magazines in ESCI.

Método: desde un enfoque bibliométrico descriptivo, se analizan los principales datos de la producción científica primaria y citatoria desde y hacia Cuba que fluye a través de la ESCI. La producción científica primaria cubana se obtuvo para toda la ventana temporal que abarca la ESCI (2005-2021). La producción científica citada se analizó en un período de los últimos 10 años (2012-2021). Resultado: al analizar las 19 publicaciones periódicas cubanas que se encuentran indexadas en ESCI, se obtuvo como resultado que 3 publicaciones periódicas cubanas de instituciones cienfuegueras se destacan como las más productivas (Universidad y Sociedad, Revista Conrado y Medisur), sin embargo, solo Universidad y Sociedad y Revista Cubana de Física alcanzan los valores más altos del índice h para un valor de 5. La ESCI es una base de datos que permite un acercamiento más cercano a la evaluación de la investigación en Ciencias Sociales, teniendo en cuenta las categorías temáticas que más representan la producción científica cubana indexada. Durante el período de 2005 a 2021, la ESCI visibiliza el 43,4 % de la producción científica cubana dentro de la colección principal de WoS, lo que demuestra que no solo los principales índices deben tenerse en cuenta para el equilibrio de los procesos científicos en Cuba. La producción científica cubana en ESCI tuvo una tendencia creciente, representando las revistas cubanas indexadas en esta base de datos el 56% del volumen total analizado. La investigación cubana visible desde la ESCI influye en el 94% de las categorías temáticas según la citada producción científica donde se corroboraron 143 países donde la investigación cubana impacta en 2452 revistas. El 40% de las autocitas de esta base de datos proviene de revistas cubanas. Conclusiones: es fundamental para la evaluación de los procesos científicos en Cuba incluir la base de datos ESCI de la colección principal de WoS, teniendo en cuenta el desempeño alcanzado desde el inicio de la indexación de la producción científica. Es una fuente de información con niveles de indexación y evaluación de la calidad de las revistas. También es importante considerar la autocitación como un fenómeno que puede conducir a la endogamia y perjudicar la visibilidad científica futura. Este estudio presenta por primera vez el estatus de las revistas cubanas en la ESCI.Objetivo: o estudo visa determinar a visibilidade e o impacto da produção científica cubana no Emerging Sources Citation Index para contribuir com a necessária inclusão desta base de dados no sistema de avaliação dentro do processo de avaliação científica institucional em Cuba. Método: a partir de uma abordagem bibliométrica descritiva, analisam-se os principais dados da produção científica primária e citante que circulam pelo ESCI. A produção científica cubana obtida corresponde ao período abrangido pelo ESCI (2005-2021), e a análise foi delimitado aos últimos 10 anos (2012-2021). Resultados: ao analisar os 19 periódicos cubanos indexados no ESCI, obteve-se como resultado que 3 periódicos cubanos de instituições da província de Cienfuegos se destacam como os mais produtivos (Universidad y Sociedad, Conrado Magazine e Medisur), no entanto, apenas a Universidad y Sociedad e a Revista Cubana de Física alcançam os valores mais altos do índice h para um valor de 5. O ESCI é uma base de dados que permite uma aproximação mais próxima da avaliação da pesquisa em Ciências Sociais, levando em consideração as categorias temáticas que mais representam a produção científica cubana indexada. Durante o período de 2005 a 2021, ESCI torna visível 43,4% da produção científica cubana dentro da coleção principal da WoS, o que mostra que não apenas os principais índices devem ser levados em conta para a avaliação da produção científica em Cuba. A produção científica cubana na ESCI tem tido uma tendência crescente onde os periódicos cubanos indexados nesta base de dados representam 56% do volume total analisado. A pesquisa cubana visível desde o ESCI afeta 94% das categorias temáticas segundo a produção científica citante, onde foram corroborados 143 países e onde a pesquisa cubana impacta 2.452 periódicos. O 40% das autocitações nesta base de dados provêm de periódicos cubanos. Conclusões: é fundamental para a avaliação dos processos científicos em Cuba incluir a base de dados ESCI da coleção principal WoS, tendo em conta o desempenho alcançado desde o início da indexação da produção científica. Constitui uma fonte de informação com níveis de indexação e avaliação da qualidade das revistas. Também é importante considerar a autocitação como um fenômeno que pode levar à endogamia e prejudicar a visibilidade científica futura.
