A systematic empirical comparison of different approaches for normalizing citation impact indicators
Waltman, Ludo; Eck, Nees Jan van - In: Journal of Informetrics 7 (2013) 4, pp. 833-849
We address the question how citation-based bibliometric indicators can best be normalized to ensure fair comparisons between publications from different scientific fields and different years. In a systematic large-scale empirical analysis, we compare a traditional normalization approach based on...

Journal topic citation potential and between-field comparisons: The topic normalized impact factor
Dorta-González, Pablo; Dorta-González, María Isabel; … - In: Journal of Informetrics 8 (2014) 2, pp. 406-418
The journal impact factor is not comparable among fields of science and social science because of systematic differences in publication and citation behavior across disciplines. In this work, a source normalization of the journal impact factor is proposed. We use the aggregate impact factor of...
