What is CiteScore?
CiteScore is a citation impact metric. It is calculated by dividing the number of citations received by a journal over the past four years (including the year the score is reported for) by the number of documents published in that same four-year period. The 2025 CiteScore results cover citations and publications from 2022–2025.
