The Glory and Tyranny of Citation Impact: An East Asian Perspective
从东亚管理研究视角审视引文影响力对学术的塑造，指出追求引用排名可能扭曲研究自然进程，导致东亚学者追随西方模式而缺乏理论创新。
This article examines the influence of citation impact on scholarship. Citation analysis allows authors to determine how often their work has been cited by others. This creates a quantitative hierarchy of influence and relevance, potentially boosting the author's reputation. However, the author suggests the pressure for prestige may distort the natural processes of research and publication. He analyzes citation impact through the perspective of East Asian management research and finds many researches are following Western models instead of offering innovative new theories.
