Breve descrizione dei contenuti:
This study analyzed the relationship between bibliometric metrics—specifically the H-index and citation counts—obtained from Google Scholar and Scopus, two widely used databases for assessing research impact. The analysis was based on data from 30 academics affiliated with the University of Verona. Strong correlations within each database were observed, demonstrating that both consistently capture similar patterns of scientific impact. The high degree of concordance between Google Scholar and Scopus metrics also indicates that they provide comparable rankings and relative measures of academic performance, despite differences in absolute values. On average, citation counts from Scopus were 33.8% lower than those from Google Scholar, while H-index values from Scopus were 16.8% lower. These findings highlight the critical importance of database selection in research evaluations, advocating the use of complementary metrics derived from multiple databases to achieve a balanced and comprehensive assessment of scientific impact, while also accounting for the unique strengths and limitations of each bibliometric source.
