Other methods of evaluationISI's Impact factor Decide usefulness of a journals

Those who read and cite the paper in their publications.

Year specific

average number of citations to articles in the journal during the

preceding two years from all articles published in that given year

(in the particular collection of journals indexed by Thomson

Scientific).H- indexGiven by Jorge Hirsch . The h-index can be explained as follows.

Suppose a researcher has 15 publications. If 10 of these

publications are cited at least 10 times by other researchers, the

h-index of the scientist is 10, indicating that the other 5

publications may have less than 10 citations. If one of these 10, out

of the 15, publications receives, let us say, 100 citations, the h-

index still remains 10.

Conclusion comprehensive approach should be used to evaluate the

research work of a scientist. 90% of papers that have been published in academic

journals are never cited.

50% of papers are never read by anyone other than their

authors.

We should not rely excessively on a single metric such

as peer review

some newer methods which not only contain better

assessment capability but also easy to use for research

group should we welcomed.
