Most cited references in the paper’s bibliography
Do I get it right:

I check the references in Google Scholar, for a most cited one there?

alternative:
I check which reference the authors cited the most?

Thanks


This is correct.

Cheers, Nick


Should we really check ~40 single references in google scholar? Or is there a more elegant way of doing it?
Thanks for your help


Hey,
is it true, that we are not allowed to cite important books because they are not scientific paper even if they are written by a professor?

Thx!


I’d also be interested in a response to that question. My gut says „yes, don’t list books“, but i’m not certain.
