Abstract

This paper analyzes the h-index and its different variations (h5, i10) in programs related to the economic, administrative and accounting areas, taking as a case study the Faculty of Economic Sciences, FCE, of the University of Cartagena. A descriptive methodology was used with a sample of 37 teachers; the analysis included the collection of the h-index of each author, considering the academic programs of the FCE. A statistical calculation was performed to answer the initial question of the study. In addition to evaluating the h-index, aspects such as academic background, the program to which they belong, gender and the most productive author were explored. The study sought to provide a complete understanding of the academic landscape in economic sciences at the University of Cartagena, using the aforementioned methodology and presenting the current state of the indexes according to the theoretical review.
