Clear decisions start here

The Scopus Journal Analyzer provides a quick, easy and transparent view of journal performance.

Using citations from over 15,000 peer-reviewed journals from 4,000 publishers, the Scopus Journal Analyzer gives editors, publishing teams, researchers and librarians quick, easy access to a transparent and objective overview of the journal landscape going back to 1996.

The Scopus Journal Analyzer turns a laborious task into a simple comparison – leaving you with more time to analyze the results and make clear, informed decisions.

How does it work?

The Scopus Journal Analyzer allows you to select up to 10 journals in a specific field. The results are uploaded into graphs, making it easy to see how journals are performing relative to each other. The data displayed can also be limited to a shorter time period than the default from 1996 to the present.

Did you know?
The data in the Scopus Journal Analyzer is updated every two months. For the first time ever, you can see where your journals stand right now, not where they were last year.

How can you benefit?

Journal evaluation is becoming increasingly relevant within academic, government and corporate markets. All these user groups can benefit from the Scopus Journal Analyzer’s unique time-saving and comparative features.

Editors/publishing teams

Researchers
The Scopus Journal Analyzer enables you to search for journals within a specific field, identify which are the most influential and find out who publishes them.

The Scopus Journal Analyzer’s unique functionality provides you with three graphical representations of the journals:
Total Citations displays the total number of citations the selected journals receive over the course of each year.
Articles Published shows the number of articles published by each journal over time.
Trend Line provides the number of citations received in that year, regardless of the publication date of the cited document, divided by the total number of documents published in that year.
