How do I find my h-index?
Uppdaterad
When you want to know your h-index, you have to start by finding your publications in a citation database, i.e. Web of Science, Scopus or Google Scholar.
Web of Science
- Search for your name in the Author field (or search by your ORCID/ResearcherID):
- When your publications are listed, choose ”Create Citation Report”:
- Citation Report gives you the h-index:
Scopus
- Search for your name in the Author field (or by your ORCID):
- When your publications are listed, mark them and choose ”View Citation Overview”:
- Citation Overview gives you the h-index
Google Scholar
There are two tools available for getting citation metrics based on Google Scholar-publications:
- Google Scholar Citations - you can create a profile (private or public) and add your publications, and then your citation metrics are computed and presented.
- Download Publish or Perish – a software programme that retrieves and analyzes academic citations. It uses Google Scholar to obtain raw citations. Search by Author’s name to see your metrics.
