Rank variability of the Publish or Perish metrics for economics and finance journals

Haley, Ryan M

Rank variability of the Publish or Perish metrics for economics and finance journals created by M. Ryan Haley - Applied economics letters Volume 20, number 9 .

This article analyses the 10 citation-based journal ranking metrics reported by Harzing's (2007) Publish or Perish (PoP) software (http://www.harzing.com/pop.htm) for 163 economics and finance journals. The results indicate that the 10 metrics produce rankings that are highly correlated. However, closer examination reveals that the variability in rank across the 10 metrics is significantly larger for some journals than others; this article identifies journals for which this is most poignant and offers possible solutions.
