Common Challenges Faced by Journals in Bibliometric Evaluation
Many journals struggle to navigate and leverage bibliometric indicators effectively, hindering their ability to attract high-quality submissions, improve rankings, and secure prestigious indexations. Key challenges include a lack of clarity around how metrics like impact factor or CiteScore influence rankings, inadequate tools for tracking citations and analyzing journal influence, and limited visibility into critical trends such as author collaboration patterns, submission demographics, and citation distributions.
Additionally, journals often face difficulties benchmarking their performance against leading competitors, leaving them unable to identify strategic gaps or prioritize improvements. Without consistent, data-driven strategies to address these issues—such as optimizing bibliometric growth or aligning with prestigious indexer criteria—journals risk stagnation, missed indexation opportunities, and diminished reputational impact.
