i10-Index
Created by Google Scholar and used in Google's My Citations feature.
i10-Index = the number of publications with at least 10 citations.
This very simple measure is only used by Google Scholar, and is another way to help gauge the productivity of a scholar.
Advantages of i10-Index
- Very simple and straightforward to calculate
- My Citations in Google Scholar is free and easy to use
Disadvantages of i10-Index
- Used only in Google Scholar
