Abstract

The Dutch Economics top40 based on publications in ISI listed journals is—to the best of our knowledge—the oldest ranking of individual academics in Economics and is well accepted in the Dutch academic community However this ranking is based on publication volume rather than on the actual impact of the publications in question This paper therefore uses two relatively new metrics the citations per author per year CAY metric and the individual annual hindex hIa to provide two alternative citationbased rankings of Dutch academics in Economics Business As a data source we use Google Scholar instead of ISI to provide a more comprehensive measure of impact including citations to and from publications in nonISI listed journals books working and conference papers The resulting rankings are shown to be substantially different from the original ranking based on publications Just like other research metrics the CAY or hIaindex should never be used as the sole criterion to evaluate academics However we do argue that the hIaindex and the related CAY metric provide an important additional perspective over and above a ranking based on publications in high impact journals alone Citationbased rankings are also shown to inject a higher level of diversity in terms of age gender discipline and academic affiliation and thus appear to be more inclusive of a wider range of scholarship
