Abstractaim: The purpose of this study was to investigate the status of research outputs of ten first level universities in Iran in the field of psychology during the years 2021-2010.Methodology: The method of this research was applied and was performed using scientometric and altmetric indices. The research community of research outputs of ten first level universities in Iran in the field of psychology indexed in the Scopus database was selected. Data were extracted from Scival, Altmetric Explorer and Seoul databases. To analyze data from Microsoft Excel software (descriptive statistics) and SPSS. Version 22 (correlation test) was used.Results: The results showed that the University of Tehran had a better situation in terms of quantity and number of citations received, but Tarbiat Modares University had a better performance in terms of the quality of research outputs. Findings showed that research outputs with high international collaborations had favorable citations. Then, a statistically significant relationship was found between altmetric score and the number of citations received by Outputs in Scopus.Results: The results showed that research outputs in the field of psychology did not have a favorable presence on social media, so it is necessary to adopt a policy in universities that researchers with active presence and sharing their work on social media, more visibility and increase Cite your inputs to help.Keywords: First level universities in Iran, Psychology, Scientometric, Altmetric, Altmetric Explorer
