- The Hirsch Index and measuring the quality of scientific papers
v. t. e. The h-index is an author-level metric that measures both the productivity and citation impact of the publications, initially used for an individual scientist or scholar. The h -index correlates with success indicators such as winning the Nobel Prize, being accepted for research fellowships and holding positions at top universities. [1 ...
Apr 21, 2011 · Hirsch himself suggested that an h -index of 10–12 might be a useful guideline for tenure decisions at major research universities, a value of 18 could mean a full professorship, and an h -index of 45 or higher could mean membership in the United States National Academy of Sciences (N.B. 11 (30%) of the Dutch professors could become a member).

Our main results are on the researchers’ estimations of the h-index and their state of knowledge on this scientometric indicator. We found a clear binary division between the academic knowledge fields: For the sciences (including geosciences, agriculture, etc.) and medicine the h-index is important for the researchers themselves and for their disci...
Especially the obvious differences between the academic areas demand further explanation. Participants from the natural sciences and from medicine estimate the importance of the h-index as “important” or even “very important,” and they know details on this indicator to a high extend. The participants from the humanities, the social sciences, econom...
A clear limitation of the study is our studied population, namely university professors from Germany. Of course, researchers in other countries should be included in further studies. It seems necessary to broaden the view towards all researchers and all occupational areas, too, including, for instance, also lecturers in polytechnics and researchers...

For instance, an h-index of 17 means that the scientist has published at least 17 papers that have each been cited at least 17 times. If the scientist's 18th most cited publication was cited ...

Jul 7, 2011 · Physicist Jorge E. Hirsch at the University of California, San Diego, first explained the calculation of the h-index in 2005 in his seminal publication as follows: "a scientist has the index h if h of his or her N p papers have at least h citations each and the remainder of the papers (N p - h) have ≤ h citations each, where N p is the number of papers published over n years". For example ...
