Abstract

The impact factor of journals is an important evaluation index of their academic influence. However, the academic evaluation of journals based on this index is biased. Based on the definition of influence factors, the paper analyzes the subjective and objective factors that affect the journals. The results show that among the objective factors, the influence of interdisciplinary differences and statistical periods cannot be followed regularly. The influential factors of periodicals with large proportion of review periodicals and review articles are generally higher than those of other periodicals. The more journal articles and authors, the bigger the impact factor is; the more the statistical samples, the bigger the impact factor of the journal is. By analyzing the definition of influencing factors and the difference of journal citations in different years of different periodicals and citations of theses papers after the completion of the statistics of influencing factors, and with the development of information technology, the papers of scientific papers are proposed according to their published journals. Based on the proper distinction of influencing factors, subsidies should be awarded according to the actual quotation of scientific and technical papers.
