Journal Citation Reports

Description

Journal Citation Reports provide access to data that helps you evaluate and compare scholarly journals. It is comprised of JCR Sciences Edition and JCR Social Sciences Edition.

Journal Citation Reports uses citation data drawn from more than 7,500 journals from over 3,000 publishers worldwide. It is a source of citation data on journals, and includes virtually all areas of science, technology, and social sciences. Journal Citation Reports can show you the: highest impact journals; most frequently used journals; hottest journals; and largest journals.

ISI does not recommend that JCR users depend solely on citation data in their journal evaluations. Citation data are not meant to replace informed peer review. Additionally, careful attention should be paid to the many conditions that can influence citation rates, such as language, journal history and format, publication schedule, and subject specialty. Journals publishing in non-English languages or using non-Roman alphabets may be less accessible to researchers worldwide, which can influence their citation patterns. This should be taken into account in any comparative journal citation analysis.
