Abstract
Based on an analysis of the 377 documents that cited Griffith's publications in the ISI citation databases, it has been found that Griffith made pioneer and significant contributions with his collaborators to the fields of bibliometrics and scholarly communication among scientists. His research work has also greatly influenced people from all over the world conducting research in psychology, bibliometric information science, and social studies of science in the past several decades.
