Journals are usually evaluated by means of citation metrics. Today two major journal-based metrics are in competition, i.e the Journal Impact Factor and CiteScore.
As parts of a multi-dimensional basket of metrics, CiteScore metrics help boost confidence in decision making.
Impact Factor is a quantitative metric for evaluating, comparing, and ranking scientific journals in different fields at the national or international level.
