“…In the first one, one of the most influential proposals is the h-index by Hirsch (Hirsch 2005), which has been subject of multiple extensions and corrections (Alonso et al 2009). Other individual researcher indices have also been proposed extending the h-index, such as the g-index (Egghe 2006), q 2 -index (Cabrerizo et al 2010), and others (Bornmann et al 2010;Kosmulski 2009). …”

The problem of comparing academic institutions in terms of their research production is nowadays a priority issue. This paper proposes a relative bidimensional index that takes into account both the net production and the quality of it, as an attempt to provide a comprehensive and objective way to compare the research output of different institutions in a specific field, using journal contributions and citations. The proposed index is then applied, as a case study, to rank the top Spanish universities in the fields of Chemistry and Computer Science in the period ranging from 2000 until 2009. A comparison with the top 50 universities in the ARWU rankings is also made, showing the proposed ranking is better suited to distinguish among non-elite universities.

“…The hpd-index (Kosmulski 2009) is very similar to the h-index, except that it adjusts for 983 the age of a publication. Rather than adjust per year, the metric is adjusted per decade.…”

6Personal impact factors (e.g., the h-index) are becoming more and more important in evaluations 7 of faculty with respect to job hiring, promotion, and tenure, but they are largely poorly 8 understood by the community at large. The purpose of this study is to educate biologist and other 9 scientists about some of the wide literature about impact factors, including highlighting their 10 strengths and weaknesses. This includes a thorough exploration of dozens of such indices by 11 comparing how they perform through repeated calculation of data representing 15 years of 12 scientific output of a single individual from beginning through mid-career. Indices are examined 13 with respect to factors such as interpretability, consistency, and stability. 14 15 16PeerJ PrePrints | http://dx.doi.org/10.7287/peerj.preprints.477v1 | CC-BY 4.0 Open Access |
