Try Scopus to Calculate your H-Index Score



The h-index is an attempt at measuring the productivity and impact
of a scientist or scholar based on his/her total body of work and
citation counts in other publications. The h-index can be used for
various scholarly tenure and promotional purposes. The following are
detailed steps for calculating a researcher’s h-index using the Scopus database.


  1. Click Scopus under TOP DATABASES on the Library homepage
  2. Click the Author Search tab in Scopus
  3. Enter the researcher’s last name, first initial, and affiliation (using simply sloan kettering for our organization)
  4. Click the green magnifying glass button to search
  5. Locate the researcher from the list of results and click on the name to view their profile
  6. Out of the links at the top of the profile, choose View h-graph
Aside from the actual h-index number displayed on the screen, you’ll
notice that a nice visual is generated providing all published works and
their number of citations. You can also update this graph to include
only specific years of publications if you like.


For more help with calculating your or another researcher’s h-index, please Ask Us! We would be happy to provide further details on using Scopus or another database for finding an h-index.
