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.
随着电子数据库的普及和引用次数的增加，使用文献计量学来评估同行评审期刊的质量和影响力的情况也日益增多。
本分析对英文职业治疗学期刊可用的一系列出版指标进行了比较和对比。
获取了23种英文职业治疗学期刊的文献计量数据，包括来自《期刊引证报告》（JCR）的2年和5年影响因子、JCR即时指数、特征因子得分、文章影响力得分、Scopus每篇论文源标准化影响力、SCImago期刊排名（SJR）得分以及ResearchGate期刊影响力得分。还获取了各期刊的H指数。
《美国职业治疗杂志》的出版指标最高。基于SJR的得分涵盖的期刊数量更多，而基于JCR的指标所涵盖的期刊数量则更为有限。
应使用多种指标来全面了解职业治疗学期刊的表现。
