Hello statalisters,
I've been trying to trying to calculate the h index for a large dataset consisting of scientists. The h index is defined as the maximum value of h such that the given author/journal has published h papers that have each been cited at least h times. The dataset looks somewhat like this:
| authorid | year | articleid | citation | hindex | c_hindex | t_hindex |
| A | 1990 | 1 | 7 | 5 | 5 | 15 |
| A | 1990 | 2 | 5 | 5 | 5 | 15 |
| A | 1990 | 3 | 13 | 5 | 5 | 15 |
| A | 1990 | 4 | 12 | 5 | 5 | 15 |
| A | 1990 | 5 | 17 | 5 | 5 | 15 |

*generate h_index for each year, flow
bysort authorid year : egen temp = rank(-citation), unique
bysort authorid year citation : egen rank = max(temp)
by authorid year : egen hindextemp = max(rank) if citation >= rank
bysort authorid year : egen hindex = max(hindextemp)
drop rank temp hindextemp
What I'm having a hard time with is calculating the cumulative h-index of each author-year (c_hindex, column 6). For instance, author A has 7 articles that have been cited at least in 1991, therefore the cumulative h index for A in 1991 is 7.
Could anybody help me up with the command for the cumulative h-index?
Thank you very much in advance!
