Kritisches, Zynisches etc. zum Impact Factor:
Impact Factor: Who are you bullshitting?
The impact factor frenzy has generated a class system in science where publication in a journal with the glossiest cover page has become the ultimate goal of scientists.
Impact factor is a crutch that is most often used by impotent, unimaginative and incompetent committees in academic institutions for recruitment, promotions, and fiscal matters.
