“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 Korean Journal of Pediatrics a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Korean Journal of Pediatrics. 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 DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, which is a positive signal.
Is Korean Journal of Pediatrics indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, Korean Journal of Pediatrics appears in: DOAJ, 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 Korean Journal of Pediatrics?
Papers in Korean Journal of Pediatrics are cited about 2.4 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q1, with an h-index of 65. 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 Korean Journal of Pediatrics (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
Scimago places Korean Journal of Pediatrics 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; Korean Journal of Pediatrics is cited about 2.4 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 65. 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 Korean Journal of Pediatrics?
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 Korean Journal of Pediatrics. 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 Korean Journal of Pediatrics 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.
Is Korean Journal of Pediatrics free to publish in?
Free to publish — DOAJ lists no article processing charge (APC). So there is no fee for authors to publish in Korean Journal of Pediatrics. Fee policies change — confirm on the journal's own site before relying on it.
How long does Korean Journal of Pediatrics take to publish a paper?
Submission to acceptance for Korean Journal of Pediatrics takes about 54 days (median) — Estimated from our library (n=19 papers). 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 Korean Journal of Pediatrics.
