An index to quantify an individual’s scientific research output
F the few scientists who earn a Nobel prize, the impact and relevance of their research is unquestionable. Among the rest of us, how does one quantify the cumulative impact and relevance of an individual’s scientific research output? In a world of limited resources, such quantification (even if potentially distasteful) is often needed for evaluation and comparison purposes (e.g., for university...
متن کاملNew Index for Quantifying an Individual's Scientific Research Output
Classifying researchers according to the quality of their published work rather than the quantity is a curtail issue. We attempt to introduce a new formula of the percentage range to be used for evaluating qualitatively the researchers' production. The suggested equation depends on the number of the singleauthor published papers and their citations to be added as a new factor to the known h-ind...
متن کاملFractional counting of authorship to quantify scientific research output
We investigate the problem of counting co-authorhip in order to quantify the impact and relevance of scientific research output through normalized h-index and g-index. We use the papers whose authors belong to a subset of full professors of the Italian Settore Scientifico Disciplinare (SSD) FIS01 Experimental Physics. In this SSD two populations, characterized by the number of co-authors of eac...
متن کاملCalibrated Fair Measures of Measure: Indices to Quantify an Individual's Scientific Research Output
Are existing ways of measuring scientific quality reflecting disadvantages of not being part of giant collaborations? How could possible discrimination be avoided? We propose indices defined for each discipline (subfield) and which count the plausible contributions added up by collaborators maintaining the spirit of interdependency. Based on the growing debate about defining potential biases an...
متن کاملA two-dimensional index to quantify both scientific research impact and scope
Modern management of research is increasingly based on quantitative bibliometric indices. Nowdays, the h-index is a major measure of research output that has supplanted all other citation-based indices. In this context, indicators that complement the h-index by evaluating different facets of research achievement are compelling. As an additional bibliometric source that can be easily extracted f...
