Elsevier's Researchtrends publiceert in het januari nummer "New perspectives on journal performance"
"Research has long played an important role in human culture, yet its evaluation remains heterogeneous as well as controversial. For several centuries, review by peers has been the method of choice to evaluate research publications; however, the use of bibliometrics has become more prominent in recent years.
Bibliometric indicators are not without their own controversies (1, 2) and recently there has been an explosion of new metrics, accompanying a shift in the mindset of the scientific community towards a multidimensional view of journal evaluation. These metrics have different properties and, as such, can provide new insights on various aspects of research."
Met hierin aandacht voor SCImago Journal Rank (SJR) en Henk Moed's Source Normalized Impact per Paper(SNIP).
