Best Social Sciences and Humanities Journals

Each journal's position within the ranking is determined by a unique and robust bibliometric score developed by Research.com. This score is calculated based on the estimated h-index and the number of distinguished scientists who have endorsed the journal over the past three years, thus reflecting both the academic impact and the academic community's recognition of each journal.

The ranking incorporates Impact Score values collected as of 2024-11-27. In the process of constructing this ranking, our experts conducted an in-depth analysis of more than 1,373 journals, selected after a thorough and critical inspection of over 127,753 scientific documents published in the last three years. These documents represent the cutting-edge research contributions of 27,036 leading and respected scientists working within Social Sciences and Humanities.
