CWTS Journal Indicators

Freely accessible at http://www.journalindicators.com/.

Journalindicators.com is provided by the Centre for Science and Technology Studies (CWTS) of Leiden University which is an academic institute specialized in quantitative science and technology studies, with a focus on bibliometric analysis. SNIP (Source Normalized Impact per Paper) values for Scopus journals are freely available at CWTS Journal Indicators.  SNIP takes into account the characteristics of disciplines.   RIP (Raw Impact per Publication) is  fairly similar to the well-known journal Impact Factor.

RIP and SNIP are provided with stability intervals. A stability interval reflects the stability or reliability of an indicator. The wider the stability interval of an indicator, the less reliable the indicator. If for a particular source RIP and SNIP have a wide stability interval, the indicators have a low reliability for this source.
