Did anybody knows anything about how the point count in Google Scholar Citations?
In my Google Scholar Citation account, this index is at the value of 17 for more than a year, do you how this index calculated?
Laith A. Jawad
To he best of our knowledge, it is calculated, based on the publications and citations that appear on a given Google Scholar site. The h-index then gets calculated in this way:
First, publications are ranked in descending order by the number of citations received.
Second, the value, h, is calculated as equal to the number (N) of publications that have N or more citations.
With good wishes !
Dear Uwe
Many thanks for your reply.
In my case, why the value of h-index does not change from 17 for more than a year? any reasons for this?
Regards
Laith
Than you Mary, but I want to know why the h-index value does not change from 17 for more than over a year?
Regards
Laith
Laih, the h-index reflects the N of publications that have N or more citations. That, then, governs the level of stability or change in the index.

Dear Laith,
h index is the "N of publications having at least N citations". For example h index is 17 in your case it means your 17 publications have atleast 17 citations. h index is unchanged for more than over a year in your case because citations of only those publications may have increases which already contributed in calculation of h index
hope that helps,
Ashish
