How We Calculate These Metrics

The Impact Factor is calculated by dividing the number of citations in the current year to articles published in the two preceding years, by the number of articles published in those two years. The SJR indicator weights citations based on the prestige of the citing journal. The H-Index represents the journal’s number of articles (h) that have received at least h citations each.
