摘要
The Spanish scientific policy has reinforced the value of academic journals and the evaluation of its quality. The aim of this article is to contribute to this debate from communication sciences by analysing some of the problems of the indexes used as reference of the journal's scientific quality, especially of those directly related to communication sciences. At the same time, the author proposes some improvements for these indexes and strategies for a better management and impact of the journals in Internet.
