Resumen
El Journal Citation Reports es una publicación anual que
mide el impacto de las publicaciones científicas a través de
diversas medidas de rendimiento; siendo, el factor de impacto,
el de mayor influencia. A pesar de la popularidad de este
índice, su uso no ha estado exento de cierta controversia,
motivo por el cual se han propuesto en años recientes indicadores
adicionales conocidos como Altmetrics. En general,
todos estos índices se agrupan según el algoritmo de cálculo
de métricas en: indicadores basados en razones, aquellos
que se obtienen de dividir el total de citas entre el total de
productos, tales como el factor de impacto; indicadores basados
en cartera, los cuales se fundamentan en puntajes asignados
a documentos clasificados, tales como el H-Index; e
indicadores basados en la red, los que consideran el impacto
del autor dentro de una red de citas más amplia, tales como
el Scimago Journal Rank. Con base en una investigación
documental exhaustiva, esta revisión presenta las características
más importantes de estos indicadores, agrupándolos
de acuerdo a la clasificación ya mencionada, y discutiendo
acerca de las ventajas y desventajas asociadas a cada uno.
The Journal Citation Reports is an annual publication that measures the impact of scientific publications through various measures of performance; of which, the Impact Factor is the most influential. Despite the popularity of this index, its use has not been exempt from some controversy, which is why additional indicators known as Altmetrics have been proposed in recent years. In general, all these indexes are grouped according to the algorithm of calculation of metrics in: based-ratios indicators, those that are obtained by dividing the total of citations among the total of products such as the impact factor; portfolio-based indicators, which are based on scores assigned to classified documents such as the HIndex; and network-based indicators, which consider the impact of the author within a wider network of citations such as the Scimago Journal Rank. Based on exhaustive documentary research, this review presents the most important characteristics of these indexes, grouping them according to the previous classification, and discussing the advantages and disadvantages of each one of them.
