Comparison of citation indexes between leading journals of Excellence Action Plan for China STM Journals and the world leading counterparts

[Purposes] By comparing the journals included in the leading journals of Excellence Action Plan for China STM Journals (hereinafter referred to as "leading journals") with their world leading counterparts, this paper explores the countermeasures to narrow the gap between China's scientific journals and the world's top journals, thus providing a reference for developing China's top scientific journals. [Methods] The index data of leading journals and the corresponding world top journals were retrieved from Web of Science and journal official websites and summarized. Then, we analyzed the development of leading journals in recent five years. [Findings] The main citation indexes of 22 leading journals were significantly improved. A total of 4025 papers (articles and reviews) were published by the leading journals in 2020, up 53.0% from the 2630 papers in 2019. The average number of articles of single leading journal published in 2020 was 183, an increase of 53.0% compared with the 120 in 2019. The total cites of leading journals surged from 99767 in 2019 to 153610 in 2020. The average cited half-life of leading journals was 3.73 years in 2020, in comparison of the 9.35 years of their counterparts. A total of 16 leading journals were put on the list of top 10% in corresponding discipline in JCR, and 10 on the list of top 5%. [Conclusions] Leading journals should establish a sound development mode, dynamically adjust the development goal and direction, follow national major strategies to meet the development needs, attach importance to talent development and reserve, and build an independent and controllable international communication platform and channel, so as to lead the development of the industry, achieve sustainable development, and drive the overall development and progress of the journal industry in China.
