What is peer review?
Definition of peer review

5 Year Journal Impact Factor
Based on cites in the current year received by articles published in the prior 5 years
For journals – Where body of citations is not large enough to make
reasonable comparisons
– With consistently late publication schedules
– Of subject fields which require longer citation period, e.g. Mathematics, Geology or Management or Sociology, etc

Journal immediacy index

Issues to note when using impact factor
Different disciplines have different publication cultures & citation practices – Cannot compare journals across disciplines – Impact factor varies considerably among disciplines
Short citation window favours rapidly moving fields – In some disciplines, many citations occur outside of the
2-year window
Not all journals are indexed, analyses are limited to the journals listed in JCR, few publications from languages other than English are included

May be subject to manipulation ‒ Eg Self citations; publish a larger percentage of review
articles which receive more citations
Review journals tend to have higher impact factors than those publishing original research in the same field
Citation profile of journals often skewed
‒ Distribution of citation counts for individual papers in a journal is highly skewed

Some misconceptions
Articles published in a high impact journal will receive more citations
– No correlation between publishing in a high impact journal and the citations an article receives
Individual articles published in a high impact journal must also be of excellent quality
It is inappropriate to use impact factors to assess quality of individual articles or evaluate/compare researchers

Other Journal Metrics Eigenfactor Score
Rates journals according to the number of incoming citations, similar to page-rank algorithm used by Google & citations from highly-ranked journals are weighted higher
Article Influence Score
Measures the average influence, per article, of the papers in a journal
SCImago Journal Rank (SJR)
Also uses algorithms similar to page-rank in Google. Considers the prestige of the journal based on the ranking of the sources of the incoming citations
Source Normalised Impact per Paper (SNIP)
Accounts for subject differences by weighting citations based on the total number of citations in a subject field (Citations in subject field less likely to receive citations are given more weight)

Citation based metrics Number of publications Citation Count h-index
Other measures: Peer review (Gold standard)
- Assessment by fellow researchers
Measures of esteem such as invitations, membership on editorial boards, funding grants & awards

Issues & limitations of citation metrics
Citations take time to accrue
Citation comparisons are only meaningful if comparing like with like, i.e. researchers in the same field of research and at similar career stages
Raw count of citations & analyses depend on coverage of the data sources/citation databases

Issues & limitations of citation metrics
Different disciplines have different citation behaviours
Science: Dominated by international, peer reviewed journals published in English; sometimes involve multiple co-authors
Social Sciences & humanities: Publish more in books & conference papers which are less likely to have citation counts; usually single author
No. of references/paper published varies with field e.g. Mathematics – low, Biomedical - high

Researcher A publishes exactly 10 papers of 10 citations each.
Researcher B publishes 10 papers with 10 citations and an additional 90 papers with 9 citations each.
Case 2:
Researcher C publishes exactly 10 papers of 10 citations each.
Researcher B publishes exactly 10 papers of 100 citations each.

From Hirsch himself ….

“Obviously a single number can never give more than a rough approximation to an individual’s multifaceted profile, and many other factors should be considered in combination in evaluating an individual.”
“This and the fact that there can always be exceptions to rules should be kept in mind especially in life-changing decision such as the granting or denying of tenure.”

“…it is flattering to be the ‘most cited author’ but I am afraid it does not signify great scientific accomplishment…
Although method development is usually a pretty pedestrian affair, others doing more creative work have to use methods and feel constrained to give credit for the same…”

Be consistent in the use of your name syntax in all your publications, e.g. James Tiberius Kirk
Distinguish yourself from other authors by choosing a name syntax that is complex enough
List your institutional affiliations over the course of your career correctly, including
