The
University of Kent write-up is here. |
I made a research presentation to John Mingers and
his faculty and PhD students at University of Kent
on 10-17 on behalf of the SIR group.
The
gist of my presentation was: "What we have
found is that the present method of evaluating scholarly
output, counting publications in 'quality' journals,
while expedient, does not assure a correct assessment
of the ability of the scholar and is biased in favor
of the status quo. We suggest that It is better
to use the assessment of the field revealed in citations,
co-authorships, and breadth of publication venues
to evaluate the influence of the scholar. The profile
of metrics thus achieved allows the nature of influence
scholars in their field to be readily seen."
