Over-optimization of academic publishing metrics: observing Goodhart’s Law in action

Fire and Guestrin analyzed over 120 million papers to examine how the academic publishing world has evolved over the last century.

  • They found that the number of publications has ceased to be a good metric as a result of longer author lists, shorter papers, and surging publication numbers. Citation-based metrics, such as citation number and h-index, are likewise affected by the flood of papers, self-citations, and lengthy reference lists.
