Abstract
PAGNOLA, Marcelo. Otro índice para cuantificar la investigación científica y tecnológica de un individuo. Rev. iberoam. tecnol. educ. educ. tecnol. [online]. 2016, n.18, pp.71-76. ISSN 1851-0086.
The aim of this paper is to propose a methodology to obtain an index that quantifies the scientific and technological work of an investigator according to a weight or importance to give an assessment according to the local scientific and technological policies, or areas of responsibility of the Scientific Technology Sector. This index involves projects, roles, and individual efforts researcher's in the technological system to carry out their investigations. This new index born of a need to expand the J. E. Hirsch's h-index since the latter only evaluates presentations of papers and not the rest of the management and technological performance that it is not considered in his original idea. This limitation of the h-index makes it impossible to assess the full profile of a researcher. In this sense, this paper proposes a complementary index.
Keywords : New index; Methodology; Investigator; Technological science sector; Technological work.
