內(nèi)容簡介：
This talk deals with research evaluation, more specifically the problems related to the fact that the so-called crown indicator (as used by CWTS-Leiden) is not consistent. A solution, namely the Karolinska indicator is given. Yet also this indicator has some practical problems. Recently it has been discovered that also the impact factor behaves in an "unnatural" way in the sense that articles with zero citations can positively influence a journal's ranking. As all these problems are related to the use of average new proposals for research evaluation have seen the light. These new proposals do not use averages. Finally, some observations are made related to the social sciences and humanities in research evaluations.
