Research metrics are quantitative measurements that identify and acknowledge research output while enhancing article, author and journal impact within the academic community. The article impact depends on the number of times that same article is cited by other authors, while an author's impact depends on the number of citations received on the total number of published articles by the same author. With the advancement in technology and the increased availability of open access journals, article-level metrics has become a popular metric. This is the aggregation of the traditional article citations and the article online presence through blogs, tweets and newspapers, which further enhances the author's impact within the academic community. A journal's impact will depend on the average number of citations received by the articles published within the journal over a period of time. The academic reputation within the academic community will therefore depend on both article and author metrics and is further enhanced by publishing in high impact journals.
研究指标是一种定量测量方法，用于识别和认可研究成果，同时提高文章、作者和期刊在学术社区中的影响力。文章的影响力取决于同一篇文章被其他作者引用的次数，而作者的影响力则取决于同一作者发表的所有文章所获得的引用次数。随着技术的进步和开放获取期刊的增多，文章层面的指标已成为一种流行的指标。这是传统文章引用次数与文章通过博客、推文和报纸在网络上的曝光度的汇总，进一步提高了作者在学术社区中的影响力。期刊的影响力将取决于该期刊在一段时间内发表的文章所获得的平均引用次数。因此，在学术社区中的学术声誉将取决于文章和作者指标，并且通过在高影响力期刊上发表文章会进一步提高声誉。
