Author Metrics

Finding your h-index in Google Scholar requires two things:

• a Google account.  You may have this already; to log in requires the same information as getting to a Google Doc account, or gmail, or Google Drive
• a Google Scholar Profile.  If you already have a Google Scholar Profile set up, simply log in and click on My Profile as shown below.  Your  H-Index and links to your published papers are immediately available.

To set up a Google Scholar Profile:

• Go to Google Scholar (simply type the word "scholar" in the Google search box)
• Login to your Google account (if you do not have a personal Google account you will need to create one)
• Click on "My Profile"

This will bring up a screen that shows the information Google Scholar has about you as an author.   Your h-index is above the bar chart to the right.
