What is the Scimago Journal Rank (SJR)?
Scimago Journal Rank (SJR) is a measure of the prestige of scholarly journals. SJR scores are computed using network analysis of citations received by journals. The methodology accounts for the number of citations as well as the source of citations, with citations from high prestige journals being worth more than those from journals with lower prestige. The prestige value depends on the field, quality and reputation of the source journals citing the article published.
