“…When analyzing all these indexes taking into consideration the four criteria proposed by Finch (2010) for the selection of a single good indicator to measure an author's performance, they fail in one, two or all of these criteria. Furthermore, these indexes are more effective when measuring the citation-based impact of high impact authors or authors that mainly publish their papers in journals with high impact factors.…”

“…Introduction GARFIELD (2014) the founding father of the Intitute for Scientific Information (ISI) Database, states: "Citations are the currency of scholarship". Following this belief, throughout the world, research bodies begun to quantify research quality through citation analysis (FINCH, 2010). Thus, to measure the performance of a researcher using objective measurements has become one of the major challenges in science (GAJENDRA;SINGH, 2009).…”

“…36 Other critiques of JIF (and other journal metrics), such as the article by Finch, point out that no perfect method for evaluating articles and journals exists. 37 Sala and Brook explore the bias introduced into JIFs when multiple authors in an article cite their previous work. 38 Critiques of journal lists within the business literature are similar to those of other fields.…”

“…Hirsch (, p. 16572) proposed an “easily computable index, h, which gives an estimate of the importance, significance, and broad impact of a scientist's cumulative research contributions.” This h‐index, and its many variants, has proved popular and several systems, including Scopus and Google Scholar, now automatically calculate this measure for authors. Finch (, p. 746) reviews several citation‐based variants of the h‐index and concludes: “perhaps trying to find a single metric by which to evaluate authors is a quixotic endeavour at best.”…”
