Publication type

The set of journals have been ranked according to their SJR and divided into four equal groups, four quartiles. Q1 (green) comprises the quarter of the journals with the highest values, Q2 (yellow) the second highest values, Q3 (orange) the third highest values and Q4 (red) the lowest values.

The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Evolution of the number of published documents. All types of documents are considered, including citable and non citable documents.

This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.

Evolution of the total number of citations and journal's self-citations received by a journal's published documents during the three previous years. Journal Self-citation is defined as the number of citation from a journal citing article to articles published by the same journal.

Evolution of the number of total citation per document and external citation per document (i.e. journal self-citations removed) received by a journal's published documents during the three previous years. External citations are calculated by subtracting the number of self-citations from the total number of citations received by the journal’s documents.

International Collaboration accounts for the articles that have been produced by researchers from several countries. The chart shows the ratio of a journal's documents signed by researchers from more than one country; that is including more than one country address.

Not every article in a journal is considered primary research and therefore "citable", this chart shows the ratio of a journal's articles including substantial research (research articles, conference papers and reviews) in three year windows vs. those documents other than research articles, reviews and conference papers.

Ratio of a journal's items, grouped in three years windows, that have been cited at least once vs. those not cited during the following year.

Evolution of the percentage of female authors.

Evolution of the number of documents cited by public policy documents according to Overton database.

Latest from the nber, a research summary from the monthly nber digest.

Workers Auto-enrolled in Pensions Save, but also Borrow, More

Many countries require employers to enroll their workers in retirement savings plans that deposit a regular percentage of their paycheck in a retirement account unless the worker opts out. These automatic enrollment programs are meant to address concerns that the employees, left to their own devices, might save too little for retirement. Previous research has documented that automatic enrollment in a savings plan significantly increases participation and contribution rates.

Immigration Policy and Entrepreneurs’ Choice of Startup Location

Immigrants play a significant role in the entrepreneurial landscape. In the United States, immigrants are 80 percent more likely to start businesses than native-born Americans. More than half of America's billion-dollar startup companies trace their roots to immigrant founders. There is limited research, however, on the factors that influence immigrants' decisions about where to locate their startup businesses.

Program Report: International Finance and Macroeconomics

Affiliates of the International Finance and Macroeconomics (IFM) Program study financial interactions among nations, including cross-border capital flows, exchange rates, responses to global financial crises, and the transmission of economic shocks. Rather than attempting to summarize the more than 1,000 working papers these researchers have distributed since the last program report in 2015, we focus here on three issues that have attracted substantial research attention from this group: impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, global supply chain shocks, and the privileged position of the US dollar in global asset...

C-section Rates and Birth Outcomes

Cesarean section (C-section) is the most common surgical procedure performed in the United States.  Sarah Robinson ,  Heather Royer , and  David Silver report that C-section rates for first-time, singleton births increased from 24 percent to 32 percent between 1989 and 2017 alongside significant changes in medical practices during this period. In 2001, for example, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists began recommending C-sections for breech births. The rising rate of C-sections has sparked a debate about whether this procedure is being overused. 

In  Geographic Variation in Cesarean Sections in the United States: Trends, Correlates, and Other Interesting Facts (NBER Working Paper 31871), the researchers study how cross-county differences in C-section usage correlate with infant and maternal...

Social Security and Retirement around the World

Over the past 25 years, labor force participation at older ages has increased dramatically. In the 12 countries that are part of the NBER’s International Social Security (ISS) project, participation among those aged 60 to 64 has risen by an average of over 20 percentage points for men and over 25 percentage points for women.

Featured Working Papers

A study by  Adam Kapor  of Texas’ Top Ten Percent Plan finds that increased clarity of the admissions threshold at selective institutions had a significant impact on the likelihood of top-decile applying to flagship institutions. The students who enrolled as a result of this plan were more likely to come from low-income high schools and to academically outperform the students whom they displaced.

Oliver Binz ,  John Graham , and  Matthew Kubic  document a strong positive relation between the impact of earnings announcements on a company’s stock price and the level of inflation. The impact of inflation is greater for firms that are more sensitive to discount rate changes. 

Using data from an Arizona State University-Uber partnership that allows eligible drivers to enroll in online college courses without charge,  Esteban M. Aucejo ,  A. Spencer Perry , and  Basit Zafar find little trade-off between total time spent working and time spent learning, suggesting that flexible hours can help students balance the two. 

Reduction in federal authority over education policy following the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 led to a retreat from the use of output-based assessments of teachers, which was associated with significantly lower student achievement growth, research by  Eric A. Hanushek ,  Patricia Saenz-Armstrong , and  Alejandra Salazar shows. 

At two universities which allowed students to conceal grades from their transcripts during the COVID-19 pandemic, women were less likely than men to conceal grades that would harm their GPAs,  Christine L. Exley ,  Raymond Fisman ,  Judd B. Kessler ,  Louis-Pierre Lepage ,  Xiaomeng Li ,  Corinne Low ,  Xiaoyue Shan ,  Mattie Toma , and  Basit Zafar find.

Considering the serious water crisis in the world and the use of saltwater resources of the seas and oceans as available water resources, desalination technology for these waters is to be raised in all societies of the world. Due to the protection and increasing efficiency of desalination methods, the design of a suitable pretreatment method for desalination of salt water has made the process more economic. The methodology used in this research for the analysis of technological schemes includes two groups of technological and economic indicators: (A) water quality data and (B) economic characteristics of the processes. The study is based on a set of experimental projections of water quality data after pretreatments, such as turbidity and the SDI15 (silt density index) index. These data were received from several full-scale systems and full-scale plants. These plants are (1) conventional pretreatment, (2) MF (microfilter) pretreatment, and (3) UF (ultrafilter) pretreatment method. The average SDI 15 index of filtrate during the study time provided by the UF and MF systems was 1.5 and 2.9, respectively. The daily decay of permeability by UF and MF systems was 0.86% and 0.45%, respectively. The total cost of the produced water (including investment and O&M) for the conventional treatment full-scale plant, the pretreatment based on the MF membrane, and the UF membrane were obtained at approximately 0.42, 0.46, and 0.55euro/m3 of produced water. Membrane-based pretreatment is a competitive technological alternative to conventional methods.
