Publication Ratings versus Peer Ratings of Universities

Anderson, Richard C.; And Others

Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 29, 2, 91-103, Mar 78

A quantitative comparison of peer versus bibliometric procedures for rating the quality of U.S. universities is presented. The quality of graduate faculty is measured by the Roose-Andersen peer rating, while bibliometric ratings are based on the number, average "quality," and total influence of university papers in each field.
