利物浦大学康健与生命科学学院规划裁人数十人，作为重组规划的一部门。在一仲春份，该大学通知了47名钻研职员，他们的事情有可能保不住了。

In a statement to Nature’s news team, the university says that a five-year average of research income was used to identify researchers whose jobs could be at risk, and that “a range of factors that might remove colleagues from thepoolof those potentially at risk were then considered, including the contribution of positive citationmetricswhere appropriate”. The university declined to specify what these metrics were.

在给《天然》杂志消息团队的一份声明中，该大学暗示，他们用钻研职员五年的均匀钻研收入来肯定谁有可能被裁人，“然后斟酌了一系列可能解除掉同事裁人危害的身分，包含在得当的处所踊跃援用文章的进献度”。但该大学回绝阐明这些指标详细是甚么。

Critics say that using metrics in such a decision is inappropriate because they tend to focus on a small part of an academic’s job. They add that the institution at the centre of therow— the University of Liverpool — used a metric based on citations that is designed to evaluate large groups of researchers, rather than individuals.

The debate highlights broader unease about the use of metrics in science as more data are collected to assess the quality of researchers’ work. Some say these quantitative measures of performance concentrate too much on publication records while failing to acknowledge other types of work, including teaching, co妹妹ittee

work and peer review.

跟着愈来愈多的数据采集起来用于评估钻研职员的事情质量，这场争辩凸显了人们对付在科学中利用权衡指标，广泛存在不安情感。有人说，这些权衡绩效的量化指标过于注意文章颁发量，而疏忽了其他类型的事情，包含讲授、委员会事情和同业评审。

A letter, dated 21 February, outlines how metrics can be biased towards certain research topics or ages, and says this “maycontravenethe basic principle of equal treatment in employment”. This is the first time to their knowledge that metrics have been used tosingle outresearchers for job cuts at a university in Europe, the authors add. Rafols says the group has not yet received a response.

一封2月21日发出的信件，概述了权衡指标是若何向特定钻研主题或春秋歪斜的，并暗示这“可能违背了就业平期待遇的基来源根基则”。据他们所知，这是欧洲的大学中第一次有黉舍利用指标来筛选钻研职员举行裁人，作者弥补道。拉夫说他们今朝还没有收到复兴。
