Q: What will happen to the impact factors?
A: There will be an impact factor for either Journal of Materials Chemistry, or Journal of Materials Chemistry A, B and C, every year. The 2014 Journal Citation Reports ® will include the last impact factor for Journal of Materials Chemistry, and the first impact factors for the three new journals.
刚问了编辑,A,B,C这两年应该是没有IF 了!
编辑的回答如下:
The new journals, Journal of Materials Chemistry A, B and C will not have an initial impact factors for 2013.
However, Journal of Materials Chemistry will continue to have an impact factor for the next two years and following that three new journals will each get their first partial impact factor after that. Therefore the Journal of Materials Chemistry family will always have an impact factor.
他第一句说There will be an impact factor for either Journal of Materials Chemistry, or Journal of Materials Chemistry A, B and C, every year. 2014年以前,这三个分刊的IF是不是和JMC的一致呢
