The cyclical hierarchy of citations
Use:Impact on author;
Impact on cited works;Impact on venues
Publish:Writing peer-reviewed;
Work indexed;Cited works receive “+1”
Cite: Show derivation;
Uphold intellectual honesty
Prior work is cited in new
writings
New writing is made “public”
Accessible to future literature
searches
Cited work gets a “+1”
Effect on JIF, H-index, i10-index, etc
Garfield
If the book is the macro unit of thought, and the periodical is the micro unit of thought, then you can consider the citation index as the molecular unit of thought
Theoretical lens for analysis of the landscape
Peer-reviewed literature
Citation-based metrics
Accessible communities for interdisciplinary
learning
Altmetrics
Research questions
• Are there barriers to changing practices around citations?
• Can using qualitative inputs and measures to describe research, alongside statistics-based measures, derive extra value in terms of stimulating communities of practice?
• Will further development in the field of (alt)metrics, and a conceptual framework designed specifically for understanding how to measure impact, result in a better HCI experience for both writers and analysts?
