►SCOPUS  

♦Licensed database

♦Providence University  Academic Research Incentive Programs -Approved source

You can search the basic information of the journal from "Sources", to find out indicators such as CiteScore, rankings, SNIP、SJR ,...etc. You may also compare up to 10 journals as a reference for the manuscript submission.

►SCImago Journal Rank

The SCImago Journal & Country Rank is a publicly available portal that includes the journals and country scientific indicators developed from the information contained in the Scopus® database.  The influence of a journal is measured by the cited number of times and the importance or prestige of the citing journal. This calculation method breaks through the traditional journal citation analysis which simply counts the number of citations and cannot reflect the "value" of individual citations.

►MIAR
     MIAR is an information matrix with data from more than 100 sources, corresponding to journal directories and international indexing and abstracting databases (citation, multidisciplinary or specialised databases). If a journal passes the MIAR inclusion threshold (which consists of the journal being present in at least one of the sources analysed), each and every one of the sources in which their presence is traced is reported in detail. It reports the number and type of sources where a journal is present which greaely supports authors, publishers and other agents who need to identify, characterise and analyse journals.
