From P100 to P100: Conception and improvement of a new citation-rank approach in bibliometrics

الأصل · EN

Properties of a percentile-based rating scale needed in bibliometrics are formulated. Based on these properties, P100 was recently introduced as a new citation-rank approach (Bornmann, Leydesdorff, & Wang, in press). In this paper, we conceptualize P100 and propose an improvement which we call P100. Advantages and disadvantages of citation-rank indicators are noted.
