About the "WJCI Report"
The World Journal Citation Report (WJCI) is a journal evaluation report that reflects the results of global journal competition.
The WJCI report aims to establish a new journal evaluation system to comprehensively evaluate the publishing and dissemination services provided by scientific and technological journals to global scientific innovation activities and their academic influence in today's society. It objectively reflects the real contributions of emerging scientific and technological powers, represented by China, and is conducive to promoting fair evaluation and homogenous and equivalent use of world scientific and technological journals. The WJCI report not only provides a reasonable journal evaluation system to achieve the major task of cultivating world-class scientific and technological journals in China but also returns the publication and dissemination of papers to their original purpose, guiding high-level papers to be primarily published domestically, serving the country's innovation-driven development strategy, and providing support for world scientific and technological development, especially the scientific and technological development of developing countries.
