The journals shown below are the only behavior analysis journals indexed in the SCImago Journal & Country Rank data base. Journal-ranking services do not attempt to track all of the tens of thousands of scientific journals that exist (with more appearing daily). Instead, they make judgements about which ones really matter. The SCImago site does not specify its criteria for choosing journals to track.
Note:
- Axes are not consistent across journals, so you have to compare carefully.
- No data were available for Behavior & Philosophy.
