COMPARATIVE STUDY
JOURNAL ARTICLE
A comparison of bibliometric indicators in occupational therapy journals published in English.
BACKGROUND.: The use of bibliometrics to evaluate the quality and impact of refereed journals has increased along with access to electronic databases and citation counts.
PURPOSE.: This analysis compared and contrasted the range of publication metrics available for English-language occupational therapy journals.
METHOD.: Bibliometric data were sourced for 23 English-language occupational therapy journals, including data from the Journal Citation Reports (JCR) 2- and 5-year impact factor, JCR Immediacy Index, Eigenfactor Score, Article Influence Score, Scopus Source Normalized Impact per Paper, SCImago Journal Rank (SJR) score, and ResearchGate journal impact score. H-indexes for journals were also sourced.
FINDINGS.: The American Journal of Occupational Therapy had the highest publication metrics. SJR-based scores included a larger number of journals, whereas JCR-based metrics were more restrictive in the number of journals included.
IMPLICATIONS.: Multiple metrics should be used to comprehensively understand occupational therapy journal performance.
