Business & Society (BAS) - update on citation impact factor

  • 1.  Business & Society (BAS) - update on citation impact factor

    Posted 07-02-2013 11:14

    PLEASE EXCUSE ANY UNAVOIDABLE CROSS-LISTINGS

     

    Each year Journal Citation Reports ® (Thomson Reuters) provides among other information two-year and five-year citation impact factors.  BAS does not yet have a five-year citation impact factor.  The 2012 factors were released in late June.  I provide below 2010 (initial), 2011, and 2012 (latest) two-year impact factor information as reported in JCR.

    Two-Year Factor

    Rank Among SSCI Business Journals

    Two-Year Factor Without Self-Cites

    0.951

    0.867

    1.723

     

    Two-year impact factors should be treated as likely more volatile than five-year impact factors (yet to be calculated for BAS). 

     

    I express my appreciation to all associate editors, members of the editorial board, reviewers, and authors for their very important contributions to improving BAS over the past years.
