Abstract
OBJECTIVES
This study aims the analysis of the journal metrics of Journal of Craniofacial Surgery based on 2024 Journal Citation Reports (JCR) data.
METHODS
In the Journal Citation Reports 2024, shared by Clarivate Analytics on June 20, 2024, the journal metrics of the Journal of Craniofacial Surgery were examined in detail.
RESULTS
According to the reports published by Clarivate Analytics in 2024, the journal's impact factor in 2023 was determined as 1.0 and the impact factor excluding self-citations was calculated as 0.8. These values show that the impact factor of the journal has increased in recent years. Also, it is seen that the Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, which has been in the fourth quartile (Q4) among the journals in the "Surgery" category for the last 10 years, has risen to the third quartile (Q3) this year.
CONCLUSIONS
The increase in the impact factor and ranking of the Journal of Craniofacial Surgery shows that the journal has strengthened its position in the scientific field and is moving toward higher levels. However, it is suggested that other metrics should be taken into consideration in addition to the impact factor.
