Introduction to Author Assessment
Unfortunately, no complete author assessment exists. Although some sources do provide more data than others for many aspects of author assessment, none of them can provide a complete list of publications.
The Web of Science and Scopus databases (and Experts.ASU, which extracts data from Scopus) are the sources with the most assessment data, however, Web of Science is limited to just journal articles while Scopus is limited to publications only as far back as 1996.
This section is divided into:
- Citation Counts for authors
- h-index for authors
- iCite for Authors to find the Relative Citation Ratio (RCR)
- Collaboration within and external to ASU
