- Title
Are we ready for an impact factor?
- Authors
Finlayson, Marcia; Miller, William C.
- Abstract
The authors examine the readiness of the "Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy" (CJOT) to implement journal impact factor (JIF) of the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI). They found that the Web of Knowledge (WoK) database of ISI does not include all articles of CJOT published from 2000 to 2002. They add that CJOT abstracts in summary reports of Ingenta were searched by people in 53 countries. They believe that the citation rates of CJOT reflects that it is not yet ready for JIF.
