Abstract

Journal Impact Factor (JIF) has been widely used for a long time as a proxy marker of journal prestige. However, off late, accuracy and reliability of JIF for evaluation of scientific journals has been increasingly questioned by numerous stakeholders in the field of scholarly publications. Having realized the perils and pitfalls of JIF, there is an increasing understanding among academia to develop and consider alternatives to the traditional JIF. It is possibly time for all concerned to understand the pros and cons of JIF to overcome this obsession. Limitations of JIF and possible alternative and emerging bibliometric indicators are being discussed in this article for the benefit of the readers of MJAFI.

摘要

期刊影响因子（JIF）长期以来一直被广泛用作期刊声望的替代指标。然而，近来，学术出版领域的众多利益相关者对JIF评估科学期刊的准确性和可靠性提出了越来越多的质疑。意识到JIF的风险和缺陷后，学术界越来越理解需要开发并考虑替代传统JIF的方法。也许现在是所有相关方了解JIF的利弊以克服这种痴迷的时候了。本文将讨论JIF的局限性以及可能的替代和新兴文献计量指标，以飨《印度武装部队医学杂志》的读者。
