| Based on the 2010 SSCI Impact Factor report, we are proud to announce that
MOR's debut impact factor was 2.806. This places us 22nd among the 140 management journals tracked by SSCI. However, as explained below,
MOR does better after the necessary adjustment. SSCI includes operations management/information systems journals on their list of management journals. Seven of the top 25 SSCI management journals fall into the OM/IS domain. Excluding these seven journals moves MOR's rank up to 15th. Additionally, the SSCI data gives two impact factors, one including and one excluding self-citations, which are citations to the same journal. Excluding self-citations, MOR's rank among management journals, as distinct from OM/IS journals, stays in 15th place. There appear to be three distinct clusters among the top 18 pure management journals. The "big four" comprise three Academy journals (AMR, AMA, and AMJ) plus ROB (Research in Organizational Behavior) with impact factors in the high 4's and above. The second tier includes Organizational Research Methods, JIBS, JMS, Org. Science, JOM, ASQ, and SMJ, with impact factors from the mid 3's to the mid 4's. MOR is clustered with Personnel Psychology, Leadership Quarterly, Asia Pacific Journal of Management, Human Resource Management Review, Corporate Governance, and Strategic Organization, with impact factors from the high 2's to the low 3's. We are particularly excited to see two Asia-based outlets (APJM and MOR) among the top 25 management journals globally. In addition, both are among the top 18 if OM/IS journals are not counted as management. The re-centering of the global economy in Asia is now paralleled by a shift of management research toward Asia. This, in the judgment of the MOR editors, is the most important finding emerging from the 2010 SSCI citation ratings, and it is a fact that all of us can celebrate. MOR could not have achieved this level of impact without the contribution of our authors, reviewers, editors, and readers. We would like to extend our thanks to all of you, and we look forward to our continuing collaboration on this important mission: contributing to global management knowledge in general, and Chinese management knowledge in specific, through publishing high quality and high impact articles in MOR! ¡@ |
