Criteria for Quality Assessment and Inclusion in SCOPUS: A Comparison of Bibliometric Indicators in Three BH Journals
Journal Title: Bosniaca - Year 2022, Vol 27, Issue 27
Abstract
Based on the selected corpus of journals, this paper aims to analyse the criteria for their inclusion in the bibliographic and citation database Scopus. The paper takes a sample of three scientific journals from Bosnia and Herzegovina – Social Sciences and Humanities Studies, Philologist – Journal of Language, Literary and Cultural Studies and Historical Views. The results of this paper show that the DHS journal follows the official Scopus guidelines, which indicates the lack of a causal relationship between the journal indexing criteria and its implementation in practice – indexing Philologist and Historical Views while rejecting Social Sciences and Humanities Studies. The importance of these results lies in the systematization of criteria for indexing scientific journals in a specific database, as well as in a better understanding of the Scopus inclusion process, guided by a comparison of recent bibliometric indicators.
