- Abstract
- Many mathematicians are not convinced that citation counts provide useful information in the field of mathematics. Describes a study whose aim was to obtain more insight into the significance of citation based indicators in this field. A survey was conducted to answer the question, to what extent do citation scores mirror the opinions of experts concerning the quality of a paper or journal?. Concludes that the experts' views correspond very well with bibliometric indicators based on citation counts
