“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric (how the two differ). Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline. What the other figures mean: journal quartile, SJR, h-index and article processing charge.

The quartile is the one Scimago prints for each category.

The document count is what Scopus indexed that year, which can be lower than a journal's full output. Source: SCImago Journal Rank 2025 edition, from Scopus data (scimagojr.com, CC BY-NC).

Frequently asked

Is African Journal of Reproductive Health a predatory journal?

Our screening does not flag African Journal of Reproductive Health. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, which is a positive signal.

Is African Journal of Reproductive Health indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?

Per our venue index, African Journal of Reproductive Health appears in: Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.

What is the impact factor of African Journal of Reproductive Health?

Papers in African Journal of Reproductive Health are cited about 0.9 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q3, with an h-index of 59. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.

What Scimago quartile is African Journal of Reproductive Health (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?

In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, African Journal of Reproductive Health is Q3 in all 3 of its subject categories. By category: Reproductive Medicine: Q3, #65 of 101; Obstetrics and Gynecology: Q3, #132 of 220; Public Health, Environmental and Occupational Health: Q3, #478 of 728. Quartiles split the journals in a subject category into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; African Journal of Reproductive Health is cited about 0.9 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 59.

What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of African Journal of Reproductive Health?

The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for African Journal of Reproductive Health. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q3, derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.

Is African Journal of Reproductive Health open access?

Our index records its access status as "gold". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.
