摘要: Abstract The purpose of this article is to come up with a valid categorization and examine the performance properties wide range h-type indices presented recently in relevant literature. By exploratory factor analysis (EFA) we study relationship between h-index, its variants, some standard bibliometric indicators 26 physicists compiled from Science Citation Index Web Science.
