Article-level metrics, including downloads and citations, are available and offer valuable insights into a researcher’s contribution to the discipline and the wider community. Furthermore, a full range of journal-level metrics, including downloads and impact data from abstracting and indexing services such as Google Scholar, Journal Citation Reports, and Scopus (where available), can be explored for each journal.
The above features highlight our ongoing commitment to balanced, broad, and responsible research. We are pleased to share our support for the principles of the Declaration of Research Assessment (DORA), which encourages publishers to report on a range of metrics based on the scientific content of an article rather than publication metrics of the journal in which it was published.
