2021 DMPHP JOURNAL IMPACT FACTOR 5.556
The Journal Impact Factor (JIF) is a journal-level metric calculated from data indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection.
It should be used with careful attention to the many factors that influence citation rates, such as the volume of publication and citations characteristics of the subject area and type of journal.
The Journal Impact Factor can complement expert opinion and informed peer review. In the case of academic evaluation for tenure, it is inappropriate to use a journal-level metric as a proxy measure for individual researchers, institutions, or articles.
