What is Impact Factor? • Impact Factor is one of the quantitative tools for Journal assessment • ISI A.A. Kolahi MD
Calculation for journal impact factor. • A= total cites in 1992 B= 1992 cites to articles published in 1990-91 (this is a subset of A) C= number of articles published in 1990-91 D= B/C = 1992 impact factor • IFسال 1992 برابر است با مجموع ارجاعات مقالات سال های 1-1990 در سال 1992 تقسیم بر تعداد مقالات چاپ شده در سالهای 1-1990 A.A. Kolahi MD
BMJ 2002 مجموع ارجاعات به مقالات 1-2000 در سال 2002 IF = -------------------------------------------------- تعداد مقالات چاپ شده در سال 1-2000 نکته: A.A. Kolahi MD

Limitations of Journal Impact Factors • Journal impact factors are not representative of individual journal articles • Journal impact factors correlate poorly with actual citations of individual articles • Authors use many criteria other than impact when submitting to journals • Potentially manipulateable via self citations • Journals can inflate impact factors by publishing greater proportion of review articles, which are heavily cited • Long articles collect many citations and give high journal impact factors • Short publication lag allows many short term journal self citations and gives a high journal impact factor • Citations in the national language of the journal are preferred by the journal's authors • journal self citation: articles tend to preferentially cite other articles in the same journal • Editorial board coerced self citation: editors may suggestively coerce authors to include and cite additional relevant articles from the same journal as criteria for resubmitting manuscript • Citations to "non-citable" items are erroneously included in the database • Coverage of the database is not complete • Books are not included in the ISI database as a source for citations • Database has an English language bias • The database of included journals may vary over time, causing instability of impact factor values • Research fields with literature that have high rates of citation due to the nature of rapidly updated and outdated study results • Impact factor depends on dynamics (expansion or contraction) of the research field • Small research fields tend to lack journals with high impact • Relations between fields (clinical v basic research, for example) strongly determine the journal impact factor A.A. Kolahi MD
Limitations of Journal Impact Factors • ژورنال معتبر ولی مقاله کم ارزش • تنوع مخاطب و رشته • دسترسی • ژورنال های غیر ISI • مقاله مروری • ارجاع به خود • ارجاعات سالهای بعد • ............... A.A. Kolahi MD

تعريف شاخص h يك پژوهشگر عبارت است از h تعداد از مقالات وي كه به هر كدام حداقل h بار استناد شده باشد. • H-Indexشاخص جديدي از شاخصهاي علمسنجي است. اين شاخص در سال 2005 ميلادي توسط Jorge E Hirsch در دانشگاه کاليفرنيا ابداع شد. اين شاخص در واقع با هدف ارزيابي کيفي اثر و ارزيابي کمي برونداد پژوهشي محققين ابداع شده است. • مفهوم H-Index عبارت است از تعداد مقالات نويسنده که تعداد ارجاعات برابر با h و يا بيشتر از آن دارند. مثلا چنانچه H-Index محققي 5 باشد، مفهوم آن اين است که اين محقق حداقل 5 مقاله منتشر شده دارد که هرکدام حداقل 5 استناد يا Citation دارند. به عبارت ديگر مفهوم آن اين است که ساير مقالات اين محقق کمتر از 5 استناد دارند. امروزه اين شاخص معادل Impact Factor براي محققين محسوب ميشود.
