ThemesResearch metrics
What is this about?
Research metrics, or Bibliometrics, is a statistical analysis of published articles and journals and their citations. Research metrics analysis can be on journal level, article level or author level (1, 2). Altmetrics is an alternative approach to research metrics (as opposed to traditional ones) which is also used today by some journals.
Why is this important?
Research metrics is used to evaluate the popularity, impact and importance of individual scientists, articles and journals, as well as the performance of employees and projects. The logic behind such approach is that cited items have bigger impact on science and are of bigger value. Such data is then used when granting advancement of researchers. Bibliometrics is also used in research, when analyzing relationships between researchers, and when assessing the impact of research projects and grants.
For whom is this important?
