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 andtype 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 aproxy measure for individual researchers, institutions, or articles.

Journal Citation Indicator (JCI)
0.97
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 inthat category. It may be used alongside other metrics to help you evaluate journals.

Total Citations
4,049
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 ™

6-20© 2022 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 hassimilar 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 canview Articles, Reviews, or Non-Citable (other) items to the JIF numerator.

Additional metrics
Eigenfactor score0.00178
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 thanless cited sources. The Eigenfactor calculation does not include journal self-citations.

Normalized Eigenfactor
0.38123
The Normalized Eigenfactor Score is the Eigenfactor score normalized, by rescaling the total numberof journals in the JCR each year, so that the average journal has a score of 1. Journals can then becompared and influence measured by their score relative to 1.

Journal Citation Reports ™

17-20© 2022 Clarivate

Article influence score
0.576
The Article Influence Score normalizes the Eigenfactor Score according to the cumulative size of thecited 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 ™

5 year Impact Factor
3.782
The 5-year Impact Factor is the average number of times articles from the journal published in thepast 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.
