Basics of the H-index

The h-index, a popular metric used to evaluate researchers, signifies the impact and consistency of an individual’s scientific research. This blog post provides an overview of the h-index, its advantages, and its limitations in measuring academic productivity.

An author’s h-index is determined by their total number of papers that have been cited at least the same number of times. For instance, if you have 10 published papers, each cited 10 times or more, your h-index would be 10.
