“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.

Frequently asked
Is Child and Adolescent Social Work Journal a predatory journal?

Is Child and Adolescent Social Work Journal indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?

What is the impact factor of Child and Adolescent Social Work Journal?
Papers in Child and Adolescent Social Work Journal are cited about 0.8 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q1, with an h-index of 75. 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 Child and Adolescent Social Work Journal (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
Scimago places Child and Adolescent Social Work Journal in Q1 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; Child and Adolescent Social Work Journal is cited about 0.8 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 75. 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 Child and Adolescent Social Work Journal?
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 Child and Adolescent Social Work Journal. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q1, 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 Child and Adolescent Social Work Journal open access?
We hold no reliable open-access classification for Child and Adolescent Social Work Journal. Check the journal's own site for its access model and any article processing charge.
How long does Child and Adolescent Social Work Journal take to publish a paper?
Submission to first decision for Child and Adolescent Social Work Journal takes about 15 days (median) — Publisher-reported. Treat it as indicative rather than a guarantee: editorial times vary by article type, reviewer availability and season, and a self-reported figure is the journal's own. We do not hold a peer-review acceptance rate for Child and Adolescent Social Work Journal.
