Metrics
“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. Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline.

Frequently asked
Is Basic and Applied Social Psychology a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Basic and Applied Social Psychology. 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 Basic and Applied Social Psychology indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, Basic and Applied Social Psychology 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 Basic and Applied Social Psychology?
Papers in Basic and Applied Social Psychology are cited about 1.6 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q3, with an h-index of 121. 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 Basic and Applied Social Psychology (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
Scimago places Basic and Applied Social Psychology in Q3 for its subject category. Quartiles split the journals in a field into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; Basic and Applied Social Psychology is cited about 1.6 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 121. A journal is ranked per subject category, so one spanning several fields can sit in different quartiles depending on the category.
What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of Basic and Applied Social Psychology?
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 Basic and Applied Social Psychology. 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 Basic and Applied Social Psychology open access?
We hold no reliable open-access classification for Basic and Applied Social Psychology. Check the journal's own site for its access model and any article processing charge.
