Research on the Index for Evaluating Academic Activeness of Researchers

Academic conferences can promote academic exchanges among researchers. As the core of academic conferences, they inject soul into academic conferences. Here, we put forward the evaluation of researchers' academic conference active degree from the perspective of participation. This paper mainly proposes to apply the h-index and the p-index to the active degree evaluation of researchers, which is a particularly simple and useful method to describe the scientific output of a researcher in academic meetings. The relevant indices are extended to the participation indices, forming the p-index of participation. Introduce the participation rate to improve the original h-index and form the h-index of participation. The evaluation effect of each index is analyzed from the consistency, difference and correlation between them. The results support the conclusion that the p(p)-index can well reflect the value of researchers' lifetime contribution, and the h(p)-index can reflect the degree of loyalty of researchers better. 84 Annual Meeting of the Association for Information Science & Technology | Oct. 29 – Nov. 3, 2021 | Salt Lake City, UT.
