Scholarly impact refers to the influence that a scholar's work has on their academic field and beyond. It is typically measured by how often their research is cited, adopted, or built upon by other researchers. This includes bibliometrics, which is the field of study that uses quantitative analysis and statistics to measure and analyze publications of researchers, journals, or even entire fields of study.
However, scholarly impact can also encompass broader contributions, including
societal, educational, or interdisciplinary impact of scholarly work, such as:
Invited Talks
keynote addresses,
or editorial roles
Research Funding
such as grant
awards received
Policy influence
or real-world
application of research
