SCImago Journal & Country Rank

About the SJR Metric

SJR is a metric that measures the scientific influence and prestige of academic journals by considering both the number of citations received and the importance of the journals providing those citations.

What Does SJR Measure? The SCImago Journal Rank (SJR) evaluates journal impact by accounting not only for how often articles are cited but also for the prestige of the journals from which those citations originate. Citations from higher-prestige journals therefore carry greater weight.

How Is SJR Calculated? SJR uses a network-based algorithm conceptually similar to PageRank. Prestige is distributed iteratively through citation relationships. The resulting size-independent indicator reflects weighted citation influence over a three-year citation window and supports comparisons among journals of different sizes.
