JSER IBI factor for 2015

Dear colleagues and readers,
We want to inform you that JSER IBI factor for the year 2015 is 3.66.

IBI factor is a measure of evolution of a journal. It is a tool in the hands of a researcher to identify a better evolved journal either to publish his/ her research, or to source articles from, to aid his research. 

As a journal ages, it improves in various parameters like quality of articles published, standardization of review process, distribution of authors, web interface etc. IBI factor takes into account various factors and grades journals submitted to InfoBase Index for evaluation. Higher score indicates that the journal is more evolved. If a publisher chooses to go through the evaluation process, he can also use it as a tool to identify areas in which his/ her journal can improve.

IBI factor takes into account the following criteria-

1.Quality of Articles.

2.Stability of the Journal.

3.Technical Quality of the Journal.

4.Internationalization.

5.Journal Standardization and Transparency.
