The use of bibliometric indicators in research evaluation has a series of
complex impacts on academic inquiry. These systems have gradually spread into a wide
range of locations and disciplines, including the humanities. The aim of the present
study is to examine their effects as perceived by philosophy and ethics researchers in
Spain, a country where bibliometric indicators have long been used to evaluate research.
The study uses a mixed approach combining quantitative and qualitative data from a
self-administered questionnaire completed by 201 researchers and from 14 in-depth
interviews with researchers selected according to their affiliation, professional category,
gender and area of knowledge. Results show that the evaluation system is widely
perceived to affect university researchers in significant ways, particularly related to
publication habits (document type and publication language), the transformation of
research agendas and the neglect of teaching work, as well as increasing research
misconduct and negatively affecting mental health. Although to a lesser extent, other
consequences included increased research productivity and enhanced transparency and
impartiality in academic selection processes. [-]
