Abstract: | The citation potential is a measure of the probability of being cited. Obviously, it is different among fields of science because of systematic differences in publication and citation behaviour across disciplines. In the past, the citation potential was studied at journal level considering the average number of references in established groups of journals. In this paper, some characterizations of the author’s scientific research through three different research dimensions are proposed: production (journal papers), impact (journal citations), and reference (bibliographical sources). An empirical application, in a set of 120 randomly selected authors in four subject areas, shows that the ratio between production and impact dimensions is a normalized measure of the citation potential at the level of individual authors. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10553/13812 | ISBN: | 9789755183817 | ISSN: | 2175-1935 | Source: | Proceedings of ISSI 2015 Istanbul: 15th International Society of Scientometrics and Informetrics Conference, p. 409-410 |
