  1. The h-indices of all papers and of 1st authored papers as of 1 June 2008. Ranking follows each column in italics. Individuals with more than one initial were also scored for initials less than their total. On average, these Dutch professors score 39.3 on all papers and 13.2 on 1st authored papers.

  2. 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).

  3. 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 ...

    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...

  4. (The h-index was suggested by Jorge E. Hirsch, physicist at San Diego State University in 2005. The h-index is sometimes referred to as the Hirsch index or Hirsch number.) e.g., an h-index of 25 means the researcher has 25 papers, each of which has been cited 25+ times. STEP 1: Setting up a Google scholar profile

  5. Aug 22, 2024 · Dr. Hirsch. Dr. J. E. Hirsch created the h-index in the paper "An index to quantify an individual’s scientific research output" in 2005. He asked and answered "How does one quantify the cumulative impact and relevance of an individual’s scientific research output?" A scientist has index h if h of his or her Np papers have at least h ...

  7. Oct 19, 2012 · First introduced by Jorge E. Hirsh in 2005, it is a relatively simple way to calculate and measure the impact of a scientist (Hirsch, 2005). It divides opinion. You either love it or hate it. I happen to think the H-index is a superb tool to help assess scientific impact. Of course, people are always favourable towards metrics that make them ...
