Over-optimization of academic publishing metrics: observing Goodhart’s Law in action https://t.co/F4mK4YqARP
Mostly common sense in this analysis of science metrics (essential theme being Goodhart’s law) but this graph on average length of publication titles 😳 https://t.co/UCYiHMUjRx https://t.co/PLkUqP9UhM

See https://t.co/hEnf5Z8ECA “Citation-based metrics, such citation number and h-index, are likewise affected by the flood of papers, self-citations, and lengthy reference lists. Measures such as a journal’s impact factor have also ceased to be good metrics
Very interesting from @GigaScience . "Moreover, by analyzing properties of >2,600 research fields, we observed that citation-based metrics are not beneficial for comparing researchers in different fields, or even in the same department."
