Slides of a Lightning Talk given at the 5th Swiss Year of Scientometrics Workshop on 14 November 2024. There is agreement that impact factors and h-indexes are not valid and reliable indicators for assessments of research and researchers. It has become clear that there is no simple one indicator to take over the role of impact factors and h-indexesHence we need to look at what kind of assessment stakeholders do want and to what extent that can be supported with indicators being developed. Future research assessment is expected to be more customised and thus use diverse data for specific fields, levels (from individual to country/discipline) and goals. Customisation is a lot of work, hence the need to openly develop and share approaches, code and pipelines, for others to tweak to their needs.Link to online version of this presentation (Google Slides): https://edu.nl/abvcxBased on poster presented at STI2024: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.13311430
citations This is an alternative to the "Influence" indicator, which also reflects the overall/total impact of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network (diachronically). | 0 | |
popularity This indicator reflects the "current" impact/attention (the "hype") of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network. | Average | |
influence This indicator reflects the overall/total impact of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network (diachronically). | Average | |
impulse This indicator reflects the initial momentum of an article directly after its publication, based on the underlying citation network. | Average |
