A bibliometric approach to the role of author self-citations in scientific communication
TLDR
The results characterise author self-citations - at least at the macro level - as an organic part of the citation process obeying rules that can be measured and described with the help of mathematical models and can be used in evaluative micro and meso analyses to identify significant deviations from the reference standards.
