  • Title: A comparison of bibliometric indicators in occupational therapy journals published in English.
    Author: Brown T, Gutman SA.
    Journal: Can J Occup Ther; 2019 Apr; 86(2):125-135. PubMed ID: 31023075.
    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND.: The use of bibliometrics to evaluate the quality and impact of refereed journals has increased along with access to electronic databases and citation counts. PURPOSE.: This analysis compared and contrasted the range of publication metrics available for English-language occupational therapy journals. METHOD.: Bibliometric data were sourced for 23 English-language occupational therapy journals, including data from the Journal Citation Reports (JCR) 2- and 5-year impact factor, JCR Immediacy Index, Eigenfactor Score, Article Influence Score, Scopus Source Normalized Impact per Paper, SCImago Journal Rank (SJR) score, and ResearchGate journal impact score. H-indexes for journals were also sourced. FINDINGS.: The American Journal of Occupational Therapy had the highest publication metrics. SJR-based scores included a larger number of journals, whereas JCR-based metrics were more restrictive in the number of journals included. IMPLICATIONS.: Multiple metrics should be used to comprehensively understand occupational therapy journal performance.
