The bibliometric analysis of scholarly production: How great is the impact? (2015, background): “Later on, the same types of problems have been raised in the Leiden Manifesto by Hicks et al. (2015) that research evaluation is now led by data rather than sound judgement and good practice.”
Relative Citation Ratio (RCR): A New Metric That Uses Citation Rates to Measure Influence at the Article Level (2015, background): “These authors [41] also found that RCR is better correlated with expert opinion than citation percentiles, which is the measure bibliometricians have previously recommended as best for evaluating the impact of published work [43].”
Dimensions: Building Context for Search and Evaluation (2018, background): “There is now a signiﬁcant body of literature that seeks to guide the sector and argues for diverse metrics and indicators to support rather than replace reviewers (DORA, 2013; Hicks et al., 2015; Wilsdon, 2015; Leydesdorﬀ et al., 2016; Waltman, 2016; Sugimoto and Lariviére, 2018).”
The science of science: from the perspective of complex systems (2017, background): “Two key moves to correct this trend are the ‘‘San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment’’ [458] by biologists in 2012 and the ‘‘Leiden Manifesto for research metrics’’ [459] by scientometricians in 2014.”
Determinants of citation impact: A comparative analysis of the Global South versus the Global North (2017, background): “A common debate in bibliometric studies is the use of social ciences and humanities for analysis (e.g. Hicks et al., 2015; Marx nd Bornmann, 2014).”
