All marketing journals indexed in the Journals Citation Report, particularly those that take a big-tent approach to the marketing discipline, saw healthy increases. While the impact factors identified in the Journal Citation Report are not the only metric that should be used when assessing the quality and value of a journal, they represent another strong indicator that the ÂÜÀòÉç¹ÙÍø’s journals, and all marketing journals, continue to offer both rigorous and relevant scholarship.
In addition to these healthy impact scores, ÂÜÀòÉç¹ÙÍø Journals have all seen increased readership and digital downloads over the last five years as well as substantially increased Altmetric scores, which monitor citations in popular press and social media.
