Advances in Research

A full, reproducible breakdown of this journal's ScPedia Score — reported across 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-year windows, the same way Scopus publishes CiteScore Tracker alongside its fixed-year figure — and its h-index, including every citation source that contributed and the complete article ranking.

Methodology & Limitations

ScPedia Score of a Journal

Modelled on the methodology used for CiteScore (as available in Wikipedia — en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CiteScore), the ScPedia Score is calculated by dividing the total citations credited to documents published during the N complete calendar years preceding the current year by the total number of documents published during the same period.

The current, still-in-progress calendar year is always excluded. For example, a 2025 score would use data from 2022–2025 and would exclude any data from 2026.

H-Index of a Journal

The H-index is the largest value h such that at least h articles published by the journal have each received at least h citations. It is calculated across the journal's entire publication history rather than being restricted to a specific citation window.

Known Approximation / Limitation

For the purpose of calculating the ScPedia Score, "Citations received" represents the all-time combined citation count for each document. This combines the platform's resolved citation index with citation counts reported by external sources.

This is used as an approximation because the available citation sources do not provide citation-event timestamps that identify the specific year in which each citation was received. Consequently, a citation associated with a document published within the calculation window may have been recorded before or after that publication window.

Therefore, the resulting figure should be interpreted as a real and reproducible citation ratio based on the platform's indexed data, rather than as an exact replication of any particular commercial citation metric.

Data as of 8 Nov 2026, 14:02. Figures are computed live from this platform's own citation records on every page load.

2-Year ScPedia Score

2024–2025
ScPedia Score (2Y) = Citations received in 2024–2025 ÷ Documents published in 2024–2025

This journal's calculation

954 citations ÷ 541 documents = 1.8

541 of this journal's 1,707 total articles were published in this window.

Citations by publication year

The same 954 citations and 541 documents above, split by which year in the window each cited document was published — not when the citations themselves happened, which none of this platform's citation sources record.

How the h-index is calculated

Every article is ranked by its combined citation count (this platform's own resolved index plus every external source's own reported count); h is the last rank where the citation count still meets or exceeds the rank itself.

This journal's result

h-index = 31 — 31 articles with at least 31 citations each.

Counts toward h Below the h-index cutoff Showing top 40 of 987 cited articles
