Title Suppressions Metrics for the title of Journal of Chemical Society of Pakistan is not published in the 2012 JCR. Suppressed titles were found to have anomalous citation patterns resulting in a significant distortion of the Journal Impact Factor, so that the rank does not accurately reflect the journal’s citation performance in the literature. The Journal Impact Factor provides an important and objective measure of a journal’s contribution to scholarly communication, and its distortion by an excessive concentration of citations is a serious matter. JCR staff will monitor such kind of journals going forward and the titles will be included in a future edition of JCR when the problem of citation concentration has been resolved. Coverage of such kind of journals in Web of Science and other Thomson Reuters products is not immediately affected by suppression from the JCR, however, the titles may be subject to review to determine if they continue to meet the quality and publication standards necessary for inclusion in Web of Science. Correct title for citation of Journal of Chemical Society of Pakistan is "J CHEM SOC PAKISTAN". Please share
