what criteria are used to rank results in google scholar
Google Scholar While most academic databases and search engines allow users to select one factor (e.g. relevance, citation counts, or publication date) to rank results, Google Scholar ranks results with a combined ranking algorithm in a "way researchers do, weighing the full text of each article, the author, the publication in which the article appears, and how often the piece has been cited in other scholarly literature".[16] Research has shown that Google Scholar puts high weight especially on citation counts[21] and words included in a document's title.[22] As a consequence, the first search results are often highly cited articles.
Big Five personality traits The Big five personality traits was the model to comprehend the relationship between personality and academic behaviors.[5] This model was defined by several independent sets of researchers.[6] These researchers began by studying relationships between a large number of known personality traits. They reduced the lists of these traits (arbitrarily) by 5â€“10 fold and then used factor analysis to group the remaining traits (using data mostly based upon people's estimations, in self-report questionnaire and peer ratings) in order to find the underlying factors of personality.[7][8][9][10][11]
