“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 The Journal of Economic Education a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag The Journal of Economic Education. 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 The Journal of Economic Education indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, The Journal of Economic Education 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 The Journal of Economic Education?
Papers in The Journal of Economic Education are cited about 1.1 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q2, with an h-index of 86. 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 The Journal of Economic Education (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
Scimago places The Journal of Economic Education in Q2 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; The Journal of Economic Education is cited about 1.1 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 86. 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 The Journal of Economic Education?
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 The Journal of Economic Education. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q2, 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 The Journal of Economic Education open access?
Our index records its access status as "hybrid". 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.
How long does The Journal of Economic Education take to publish a paper?
Submission to first decision for The Journal of Economic Education takes about 30 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.
What is the acceptance rate of The Journal of Economic Education?
The Journal of Economic Education reports an acceptance rate of about 17% — Publisher-reported. Acceptance rates vary by article type and change from year to year, and a publisher-stated figure is the journal's own, so treat it as indicative rather than a guarantee.
