The international critique of bibliometric indicators of researchers' work continues

 I recently felt ashamed to read how Lithuanian scientists on purpose created shady journals to print each other's crappy works and secure their careers in Lithuanian science through that press presentation. It is a shame that our scientists are behaving like uncivilized people, deceiving society with alleged achievements. How do scientists in developed countries deal with this?

"Along with other elements, the University Medical Center Utrecht in the Netherlands candidates now provide a short essay about who they are and what their plans are as faculty members. They must discuss achievements in terms of five domains,

only one of which is scientific publications and grants.

First, candidates describe their managerial responsibilities and academic duties, such as reviewing for journals and contributing to internal and external committees.

Second, they explain how much time they devote to students, what courses they have developed and what other responsibilities they have taken on.

Then, if applicable, they describe their clinical work as well as their participation in organizing clinical trials and research into new treatments and diagnostics.

Finally, the portfolio covers entrepreneurship and community outreach."
