The journal investigates studies in Epidemiology, Demography, Ethnic group, Health equity and Gerontology. Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities focuses on Epidemiology but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Psychological intervention, Logistic regression, Health care, Family medicine and Socioeconomic status. Discussions in the journal are anchored in the subject of Health care and the similar topic of Nursing.
The studies in Demography featured incorporate elements of Obesity, Odds and Race (biology). Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities focuses on Obesity research which is adjacent to topics in Body mass index. It explores topics in Ethnic group which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Mental health, Disease, Clinical psychology and Environmental health.
Topics in Mental health were tackled in line with various other fields like Depression (differential diagnoses) and Anxiety. The research on Health equity featured in it combines topics in other fields like Racism, Social determinants of health and Health promotion. The study on Gerontology presented in the journal intersects with subjects under the field of Quality of Life Research.
The published papers are mainly concerned with subjects like Epidemiology, Ethnic group, Demography, Gerontology and Socioeconomic status. The journal articles address concerns in Epidemiology which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Logistic regression, Obesity, Race (biology), Mental health and Depression (differential diagnoses). While Ethnic group is the key highlight in the journal articles, thet also covered some subjects on Diabetes mellitus and Stroke.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 0.84% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 20.62% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 14.41% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 20.06% of all publications and 44.92% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
