Paediatric Journals

Journals have been ranked by their impact factor (2000). Impact factor is a measure reflecting the average number of citations to articles published in science and social science journals. It is frequently used as a proxy for the relative importance of a journal within its field, with journals with higher impact factors deemed to be more important than those with lower ones. Some people argue that this does not necessarily determine the usefulness or the quality of the journal.
