摘要
Elsevier's (Scopus) CiteScore, a journal-based metric (JBM), has been assigned to more journals than Clarivate Analytics' Journal Impact Factor (JIF), including journals indexed by Scopus that do not carry a JIF. Unlike JIFs, CiteScore values are openly accessible. The advertisement of CiteScore, like other metrics, by journals or publishers may be in violation of DORA (Declaration on Research Assessment) principles. While use of the CiteScore can provide interesting information about how a journal is being cited, the use of this JBM as a "quality" metric is cautioned.
