Firefox addon for calculating "h" index in Google Scholar results
![]()
If you are a researcher and publishing, applying for funding or
grant money, or you are simply curious, you may wish to know what
your "h" index is. You "h" index is a measure of the impact
of your research calculated from your research output. If for
example you have an "h" index of 10, this indicates that from your
publication output 10 papers have been cited at least 10 times. The
"h" index is commonly determined from publications indexed in the
Web of Knowledge and Scopus databases, but now you can receive an
"h" index calculation for your papers and publications cited in
Google Scholar. Download this addon
from Firefox to automatically display some of the most known
citation indices (h-index, g-index, e-index) for citations on
Google Scholar. The advanced interface mode allows manual selection
of papers, editing of self citations and author count values.
Be aware that your "h" index in Google Scholar is likely to be
higher than that calculated by Web of Knowledge or Scopus because
of the greater number of citations listed in Google Scholar.
