Retaining impressive rankings The Journal Impact Factor (JIF) is a widely used measure of average citations and is often seen as a marker of a journal’s influence. But no single metric can capture the whole picture. As a DORA signatory, BMJ Group offers a more balanced view of research impact. Alongside JIF, we share CiteScore, Altmetric mentions, time to first decision, and more, all available on our journal sites. These metrics help institutions assess quality, reach, and timeliness, and make informed decisions about where to subscribe and publish.
