Cited Journal Graph

The Cited Journal Graph shows the distribution by cited year of citations to articles published in a journal.

Cited Journal Graph

  • The white/grey division indicates the approximate position of the cited half-life (if < 10.0). Half of the journal's cited articles were published more recently than the cited half-life.

  • The top (gold or yellow) portion of each column indicates journal self-citations: citations to articles in the journal from articles in the same journal.

  • The bottom (dark blue) portion of each column indicates non-self citations: citations to the journal from articles in other journals.

  • The two light blue columns indicate citations used to calculate the impact factor (always the 2nd and 3rd columns)
