FUNDORA-MIRABAL, Jorge A e DORTA-CONTRERAS, Alberto J. Some comments on the metric alternative methods. Gac Méd Espirit [online]. 2016, vol.18, n.3, pp. 05-11. ISSN 1608-8921.
An important and indispensable part of the activity of the scientists and teachers of universities and investigation institutes it is the popularization of their results through the publication in specialized magazines and on the base of these rests their evaluation. In Cuba the mensuration of the scientific results is carried out by the simple count of the articles that professionals publish: A scientist has a bigger merit if he publishes more articles, a teacher one to pass from a category to another superior has to have in his reference a certain number of publishing; that is to say, this is the quantitative stage to which still traffic many countries. Then the methods arose to combine the quantity with the quality and then to pass to a superior scale that happens when the published works are read and quoted in other articles, this is already a metric that measures quality because it means that the science has been "consumed."
