Journal Title：Journal Of Informetrics

Journal of Informetrics (JOI) publishes rigorous high-quality research on quantitative aspects of information science. The main focus of the journal is on topics in bibliometrics, scientometrics, webometrics, patentometrics, altmetrics and research evaluation. Contributions studying informetric problems using methods from other quantitative fields, such as mathematics, statistics, computer science, economics and econometrics, and network science, are especially encouraged. JOI publishes both theoretical and empirical work. In general, case studies, for instance a bibliometric analysis focusing on a specific research field or a specific country, are not considered suitable for publication in JOI, unless they contain innovative methodological elements.

Journal of Informmetrics (JOI) 发表关于信息科学定量方面的严格高质量研究。该杂志的主要重点是文献计量学、科学计量学、网络计量学、专利计量学、替代计量学和研究评估等主题。特别鼓励使用其他定量领域的方法研究信息计量问题，如数学、统计学、计算机科学、经济学和计量经济学以及网络科学。 JOI 发表理论和实证工作。一般来说，案例研究，例如专注于特定研究领域或特定国家的文献计量分析，不适合在 JOI 中发表，除非它们包含创新的方法元素。
