    A thoughtful and well-researched article that offers positive and negative quality indicators for evaluating open access journals for publishing considerations, while the authors caution against a "one-size fits all" approach and the importance of guiding faculty and researchers to make informed personal choices.

  • The authors argue that “impact measures can be categorized according to whether the active role in promoting the research is played by the researchers (producer-push measures), decision-makers (user-pull measures) or both researchers and decision-makers (exchange measures).”x

    * A common reason for measuring the impact of research is to demonstrate accountability, but results of measuring can also be used to guide improvements in research and programming. * Health research impacts generally include: knowledge production; research capacity-building; informed decision-making; health and health sector benefits; and economic benefits. * Among some of the widely used methods for measuring the benefits from research are bibliometric analysis, economic rate of return, peer review, case studies, logic modelling, and benchmarking. Taking a multi-indicator, multi-method approach is advised.

    Formerly, the impact of authors and their scientific production was measured by the average citation frequencies of journals publishing their research: the Journal Impact Factor (JIF), calculated by the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) in the United States and published annually in the Journal Citation Reports (JCR)-the most frequently used quantitative indicator to measure the quality/value/impact of research works published in the core international journals. It has been suggested that, by calculating the number of webpages pointing to a given site, analogously, a Web Impact Factor can be calculated as a way of comparing the attractiveness of sites or domains on the World Wide Web.
