    19. 19 Limitations of Journal Impact Factors Journal impact factors are not representative of individual journal articles Journal impact factors correlate poorly with actual citations of individual articles Authors use many criteria other than impact when submitting to journals Potentially manipulateable via self citations Journals can inflate impact factors by publishing greater proportion of review articles, which are heavily cited Long articles collect many citations and give high journal impact factors Short publication lag allows many short term journal self citations and gives a high journal impact factor Citations in the national language of the journal are preferred by the journal's authors journal self citation: articles tend to preferentially cite other articles in the same journal Editorial board coerced self citation: editors may suggestively coerce authors to include and cite additional relevant articles from the same journal as criteria for resubmitting manuscript Citations to "non-citable" items are erroneously included in the database Coverage of the database is not complete Books are not included in the ISI database as a source for citations Database has an English language bias The database of included journals may vary over time, causing instability of impact factor values Research fields with literature that have high rates of citation due to the nature of rapidly updated and outdated study results Impact factor depends on dynamics (expansion or contraction) of the research field Small research fields tend to lack journals with high impact Relations between fields (clinical v basic research, for example) strongly determine the journal impact factor A.A.

    24. Journal Choosing Criteria Relevancy Level of your work History, Well known, Prestige, Specialty ISI and Impact Factor) Indexed PubMed Indexed in Scopus Frequency 24 A.A. Kolahi MD

    25. Continue Accessibility (Open Accessed) Print or E-journal Assessment of Iranian authors accepting Acceptation time Rejection Rate On time publication Country of Publication, Language of country 25 A.A. Kolahi MD

    26. For this Go PubMed Find Check indexed, Iranian author, open, free, print or e, freq, on time, Make an excel file Current Impact Factor ISI website, IF list or J own website Chose a appropriate journal Chose alternative journals 26 A.A. Kolahi MD
