Biophysics Journals Impact Factor

The impact factor of Biophysics journal may be a measure reflecting the typical number of citations to recent articles published within the journal. it's frequently used as a proxy for the relative importance of a journal within its field, with journals with higher impact factors deemed to be more important than those with lower ones. The impact factor was devised by Eugene Garfield, the founding father of the Institute for Scientific Information Biophysics Impact factors are calculated yearly ranging from 2013 for those journals that are indexed within the Journal Citation Reports. A journal can adopt editorial policies to extend its impact factor. for instance , journals may publish a bigger percentage of review articles which generally are cited quite research reports. Thus review articles can raise the impact factor of the journal and review journals will therefore often have the very best impact factors in their respective fields. Some journal editors set their submissions policy to "by invitation only" to ask exclusively senior scientists to publish "citable" papers to extend the journal impact factor. Journals can also plan to limit the amount of "citable items"—i.e., the denominator of the impact factor equation either by declining to publish articles that are unlikely to be cited or by altering articles in hopes that Thomson Scientific won't deem it a "citable item". As a results of negotiations over whether items are "citable", impact factor variations of quite 300% are observed. Interestingly, items considered to be uncitable and thus aren't incorporated in impact factor calculations can, if cited, still enter into the numerator a part of the equation despite the convenience with which such citations might be excluded. This effect is tough to guage , for the excellence between editorial comment and short original articles isn't always obvious. for instance , letters to the editor may ask either class.
