Science-Metrix


The Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) asked Science-Metrix to identify current practices in bibliometric evaluation of research in the social sciences and humanities (SSH). The resulting study involves a critical review of the literature in order to identify the specific characteristics of the SSH and their effects on the use of bibliometrics for evaluating and mapping research. In addition, this report presents an overview of methods of research benchmarking and mapping and identification of emerging SSH fields. This part of the report is particularly relevant because of the need to exercise considerable caution when using bibliometrics to evaluate and map SSH research.
