The Measurement of Intellectual Influence
基于学术出版物间的引用数据,用公理化方法研究智力影响力的测量,发现满足若干性质的唯一排序方法,该方法不同于经济学等领域的常用方法。
This paper examines the problem of measuring intellectual influence based on data on citations between scholarly publications. We follow an axiomatic approach and find that the properties of invariance to reference intensity, weak homogeneity, weak consistency, and invariance to splitting of journals characterize a unique ranking method. This method is different from those regularly used in economics and other social sciences. Copyright The Econometric Society 2004.
