File views and downloads of IJSF articles are tracked by RePEc and distributed monthly to journal editors. The report for July came out yesterday. I thought that readers of this blog might be interested in this information.
Page views (file downloads) on participating RePEc services:
Last month: 435 (130)
Previous month: 534 (122)
Last 3 months: 1551 (407)
Last year: 7137 (1900)
Since start: 13472 (3413)
The IJSF is a relatively new journal, so we don’t have a long enough publication run to generate much in the way of impact factors. However, we continue to improve every month, which is encouraging. Here are the impact factors:
Simple impact factor: 0.3
Recursive impact factor: 0.01
Discounted impact factor: 0.15
Recursive discounted impact factor: 0.01
h-index: 2
