Journal's Performance

Journal Impact Factor

The Journal Impact Factor (JIF) is a journal-level metric calculated from data indexed in the Web of
Science Core Collection. It should be used with careful attention to the many factors that influence
citation rates, such as the volume of publication and citations characteristics of the subject area and
type of journal. The Journal Impact Factor can complement expert opinion and informed peer review.
In the case of academic evaluation for tenure, it is inappropriate to use a journal-level metric as a
proxy measure for individual researchers, institutions, or articles.

Journal Citation Indicator (JCI)
0.84
The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is the average Category Normalized Citation Impact (CNCI) of
citable items (articles & reviews) published by a journal over a recent three year period. The average
JCI in a category is 1. Journals with a JCI of 1.5 have 50% more citation impact than the average in
that category. It may be used alongside other metrics to help you evaluate journals.

Total Citations
4,859
The total number of times that a journal has been cited by all journals included in the database in the
JCR year. Citations to journals listed in JCR are compiled annually from the JCR years combined
database, regardless of which JCR edition lists the journal.

Journal Citation Reports ™ 6-23 © 2023 Clarivate

Citation Distribution
The Citation Distribution shows the frequency with which items published in the year or two years
prior were cited in the JCR data year (i.e., the component of the calculation of the JIF). The graph has
similar functionality as the JIF Trend graph, including hover-over data descriptions for each data
point, and an interactive legend where each data element's legend can be used as a toggle. You can
view Articles, Reviews, or Non-Citable (other) items to the JIF numerator.

Open Access (OA)

The data included in this tile summarizes the items published in the journal in the JCR data year and
in the previous two years. For example, in the 2020 JCR data, released in June 2021, the Open
Access (OA) data show the publication model (Gold OA or subscription) of materials published in
2018, 2019 and 2020, and citations in 2020 to these items. This three-year set of published items is
used to provide descriptive analysis of the content and community of the journal.

Additional metrics
Eigenfactor score
0.00359
The Eigenfactor Score is a reflection of the density of the network of citations around the journal
using 5 years of cited content as cited by the Current Year. It considers both the number of citations
and the source of those citations, so that highly cited sources will influence the network more than
less cited sources. The Eigenfactor calculation does not include journal self-citations.

Normalized Eigenfactor
0.77203
The Normalized Eigenfactor Score is the Eigenfactor score normalized, by rescaling the total number
of journals in the JCR each year, so that the average journal has a score of 1. Journals can then be
compared and influence measured by their score relative to 1.

Journal Citation Reports ™ 20-23 © 2023 Clarivate

Article influence score
0.412
The Article Influence Score normalizes the Eigenfactor Score according to the cumulative size of the
cited journal across the prior five years. The mean Article Influence Score for each article is 1.00. A
score greater than 1.00 indicates that each article in the journal has above-average influence.

Journal Citation Reports ™ 21-23 © 2023 Clarivate

5 year Impact Factor
3.653
The 5-year Impact Factor is the average number of times articles from the journal published in the
past five years have been cited in the JCR year. It is calculated by dividing the number of citations in
the JCR year by the total number of articles published in the five previous years.

The Immediacy Index is the count of citations in the current year to the journal that reference content
