Most cited articles
How is this computed?
h-index and citations are computed from the citation counts of this academic’s YÖKSİS articles matched in OpenAlex (not Google Scholar, WoS or Scopus). Unmatched articles are not included. 1 articles (9 citations) tagged with this academic’s YÖK author id in co-authors’ YÖKSİS records count only towards citations, h-index and i10; article counts, percentiles and rankings use their own YÖKSİS list.
