There are qualitative and quantitative factors to consider when choosing a journal in which to publish your latest research. This webinar will unpick some of the quantitative factors in your decision-making process by exploring a range of journal indicators and how journal impact can be measured beyond citations.
This webinar will cover:
- Journal-level indicators such as the Journal Impact Factor (JIF), SCImago Journal Rank (SJR) and Source Normalised Impact per Paper (SNIP), and their strengths and limitations
- Identifying top-tier journals in a subject area and comparing journals on a range of indicators
- How journals fare on rejection rates, the percent of non-cited material in a journal and the percentage of review articles
- Comparing journals on citations in patents and policy documents
