Abstract
This guide provides you with practical step-by-step guidance on using the Publish or Perish software. After reading this guide, you will know more about citation analysis than 99% of your academic colleagues! You will learn all about its user interface and multi-searches centre, the metrics that PoP calculates, as well as the eight data sources that the software interfaces with. The two most frequently used of these data sources – Google Scholar and Google Scholar Profiles – are discussed in detail in separate chapters.
The guide then shows you how to conduct effective author, journal, topic, and affiliation searches, as well as how to use the software for a wide variety of purposes. This includes tenure or promotion applications, conducting literature reviews and meta-analyses, deciding where to submit your paper, preparing for job interviews, writing laudations or obituaries, finding reviewers, examiners, or keynote speakers, preparing for a meeting with your academic hero, uncovering “citation connections” between scholars, doing bibliometric research and much much more.
