Citation metrics are updated annually mid-year. Speed data is updated every six months, based on the prior six months. Usage and acceptance rate data above are for the last full calendar year and are updated annually in February. In addition, a single article should always be assessed on its own merits and never based on the metrics of the journal it was published in.įor more details, please read the Author Services guide to understanding journal metrics. We strongly recommend that you always use a number of metrics, alongside other qualitative factors such as a journal’s aims & scope, its readership, and a review of past content published in the journal. Each metric has its limitations which means that it should never be considered in isolation, and metrics should be used to support and not replace qualitative review. However, any one metric only tells a part of the story of a journal’s quality and impact. Journal metrics can be a useful tool for readers, as well as for authors who are deciding where to submit their next manuscript for publication. ![]()
