Clarivate releases enhanced 2018 Journal Citation Reports

July 20, 2018

Clarivate Analytics has announced the 2018 update of its Journal Citation Reports (JCR), offering what it describes as richer, more detailed information to enhance users’ understanding of journal performance. 

These additional insights will help researchers, publishers, editors, librarians and funders to explore the key drivers of a journal’s value for diverse audiences, making better use of the data and metrics from the citation index database.

The JCR is the world’s most influential and trusted resource for evaluating peer-reviewed publications and is the leading source of annual journal metrics and indicators, including the Journal Impact Factor (JIF).

This year, the JIF and other indicators have been significantly strengthened with article-level insights and a wide range of additional benefits.

GRAVITY”, developed within the framework of international Erasmus+ project “YOUTH 360”.
