Abstract | Abstract Hirsch’s h-index gives a single number that in some sense summarizes an author’s research output and its impact. Since an individual author’s h-index will be time-dependent, we propose instead the h-rate which, according to theory, is (almost) constant. We re-analyse a previously published data set (Liang, 2006) which, although not of the precise form to properly test our model, reveals that in many cases we do not have a constant h-rate. On the other hand this then suggests ways in which deeper scientometric investigations could be carried out. This work should be viewed as complementary to that of Liang (2006). |
