In the Footsteps of Giants: Navigating the World of Citation Indices
Abstract
This paper explores the intricacies of scholarly impact measurement through citation indices, focusing on the widely used H-index and i10 index. Delving into the world of academic metrics, it elucidates how these indices gauge the influence and productivity of researchers. The discussion encompasses the H-index's nuanced evaluation of publications with a specified citation threshold and the i10 index's straightforward count of papers surpassing 10 citations. Emphasizing the significance of these metrics in academia, the abstract guides researchers in understanding and leveraging them effectively. Whether decoding the meaning behind the numbers or navigating platforms like Google Scholar and Scopus for self-assessment, this exploration aims to empower scholars to comprehend and enhance their scholarly impact.
