Comparison of the Hirsch-index with standard bibliometric indicators and with peer judgment for 147 chemistry research groups
@article{Raan2013ComparisonOT, title={Comparison of the Hirsch-index with standard bibliometric indicators and with peer judgment for 147 chemistry research groups}, author={A. V. Raan}, journal={Scientometrics}, year={2013}, volume={67}, pages={491-502} }
In this paper we present characteristics of the statistical correlation between the Hirsch (h-) index and several standard bibliometric indicators, as well as with the results of peer review judgment. We use the results of a large evaluation study of 147 university chemistry research groups in the Netherlands covering the work of about 700 senior researchers during the period 1991–2000. Thus, we deal with research groups rather than individual scientists, as we consider the research group as… CONTINUE READING
