SAE Earns New Impact Factors from Clarivate Analytics’ Institute of Scientific Information

Posted: August 27, 2024

In June 2024, the Institute of Scientific Information (ISI) from Clarivate Analytics released a list of 2023 impact factors.

SAE International has earned Journal Impact Factors (JIFs) for nine journals.

Understanding Impact Factors

Clarivate determines journal impact factors using a ratio that measures how often an article is cited in a year against the total number of citable content piece published in the previous two-year period.

The ISI uses a quality-driven process to determine which journals receive impact factors. Subject matter experts evaluate content and measure the citations of each journal found within the Web of Science platform. Authors and librarians around the world look to ISI impact factors when deciding which journals to purchase and where to publish them.

Due to a crowded market of publications, ranking on the scale is difficult to achieve, and any journal that earns an impact factor is seen as a valuable contributor to the field. 

The SAE Journals earning impact factors include:

Why It Matters

With fraudulent behavior on the rise, JIFs serve as indicators of reliability and trustworthiness. These numerical scores validate SAE's dedication to its journals, authors, and editorial boards by gauging the rate at which journals are cited in scholarly content.

Clarivate Analytics has identified over 21,000 academic journals from 250 scientific research fields. Its annual Journal Citation Report examines thousands of publications for JIF consideration and marks Clarivate as one of the most reliable sources for identifying cutting-edge data.

The SAE Approach

The SAE International Scholarly Journals Program ensures quality through a rigorous peer-review process.

Kim Martin, SAE’s Editorial Director, Journals, Technical Papers, and SAE MobilityRxiv®, recognizes the need for a reliable, credible outlet to publish research that’s beneficial to both the author and the reader.

“One of the big things for publishing with SAE is that we have a name in this business, and there is authority behind the SAE brand. We're working with many different universities and organizations across industry. Publishing with us can provide authors that boost in credibility,” she previously shared in an SAE Blog.
