Journals are positioned in this ranking according to a unique bibliometric score developed exclusively by Research.com. This score incorporates the estimated h-index of each journal and the number of leading scientists who have actively endorsed the journal over the past three years, ensuring that both quantitative impact and peer recognition are appropriately reflected.
