Dear Cordula Hinkes

Be careful with the link to SCIJOURNAL.ORG (https://www.scijournal.org/ ) it is mentioned in the Beall’s list of misleading metrics:

https://beallslist.net/misleading-metrics/

But your conclusion is right the journal “Journal of Marketing and Consumer Behaviour in Emerging Markets” is not mentioned in the Clarivate Impact factor list (see enclosed list).

The journal seems legit and genuine though, it is:

-Member of DOAJ (which is often used as white list for open access journals)

-No fee and genuine organization behind it (University of Warsaw, Poland)

Conclusion: Small but decent journal, relatively young with no impact factor.

Best regards.

PS. If you want to know if a particular journal is indexed by Clarivate you can always have a look at their Master Journal List: https://mjl.clarivate.com/home

Greetings,

IF of the journal 0.06 and five years IF 0.03

Rob Keller Sir just need a piece of advice, its clear to me that it has no impact factor, is it SCI journal or NOT? because i just need to submit paper in SCI journal even having no Impact factor

Dear Faheem Akhtar ,

It is confusing I know. Although still frequently used the database of SCI as independent/separated database no longer exists, it is included in the SCIE database (https://support.clarivate.com/ScientificandAcademicResearch/s/article/Master-Journal-List-Removal-of-SCI?language=en_US).

For those interested, you can download the most recent lists of SCIE and ESCI at:

https://mjl.clarivate.com/collection-list-downloads

all you need is for example an ORCID ID (you can register for free and is more and more asked for by journals).

The SCIE database is, as Cordula Hinkes

There is another database from Clarivate (the company behind all this) called ESCI database filled with journals that might be included eventually in the SCIE database (but have no impact factor yet).

Universities sometimes require that the journal is either indexed in SCIE (maybe ESCI is good enough as well, but journals can be removed from this one if they do not pass the complete evaluation) or in the SCIMago database (based on the Scopus list). Scopus provide their own impact factor (Cite Score).

Best regards.

PS. See enlisted file for the most recent ESCI and Scopus list. Your journal is not mentioned in these lists.
