Unlike parametric methods, nonparametric statistics are ideal for nominal and ordinal data, requiring fewer assumptions about the population's nature or distribution. This makes nonparametric methods easier to apply and interpret, as they do not depend on parameters like mean or standard deviation. One common approach in nonparametric analysis is to sort data according to a specific criterion. For instance, we might arrange weather data from hottest to coldest days in a month or rank cities...

Area of Science:

  • Bibliometrics
  • Public Health
  • Academic Ranking

Background:

  • No established ranking system exists for global schools of public health.
  • Bibliometric data can be used to assess academic performance and impact.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To create the Public Health Academic Ranking (PHAR) for global schools of public health.
  • To establish a bibliometric-based methodology for ranking public health institutions.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized InCites Benchmarking and Analytics™ and Web of Science™ Core Collection.
  • Collected bibliometric data from 26 schools of public health across continents (August-September 2022).
  • Included 11 research indicators across productivity, quality, accessibility, and international collaboration (2017-2021).

Main Results:

  • The top five institutions in the pilot Public Health Academic Ranking (PHAR) were identified.
  • The London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine ranked highest, followed by the Public Health Foundation of India and Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.

Conclusions:

  • The Public Health Academic Ranking (PHAR) provides a method for worldwide bibliometric ordering of public health schools.
  • This pilot study's results should be interpreted with caution, and the methodology warrants critical discussion and future refinement.
