Scopus Journal Exclusions for November 2024

Why might a journal be excluded from the Scopus database?
Getting indexed in Scopus is a fairly lengthy and complex process that scientific journals go through. There are a number of criteria that publications must meet in order to get into this database.

Every month, Scopus monitors indexed scientific journals. The platform analyzes how well they adhere to the rules and records violations. There are a number of reasons why a journal may be excluded from the database, namely:

Fraud: journals engage in illegal publishing activities (promising quick publication for a fee or posing as reputable publications, misleading researchers)
Violation of scientific ethics and academic integrity: publications do not comply with the basic principles of honesty and transparency
Low quality of articles: journals publish materials that do not meet indonesia phone numbers quality and reliability standards
lack of relevance of materials: outdated or irrelevant data is published
abrupt changes in scientometric indicators: Scopus monitors suspicious activity that may lead to abrupt changes in journal scientometric indicators such as citation rate and h-index
change in the subject matter and direction of the journal: deviation from the original concept and scope

How are scientific journals monitored?
Scopus takes a comprehensive approach to analyzing the activities of scientific journals and identifying violations. The main tool used during this process is a special monitoring system from Elsevier – Radar.

This tool monitors the deterioration of journal scientometric indicators. Based on the information received, the database makes a decision regarding the continuation or termination of indexing of the publication. The most common reasons for exclusion from Scopus include:

Artificial increase in the citation level.
Acceptance of articles without proper verification and selection.
A sharp change in the scientific subject matter and direction of the journal.
Lack of peer review process.
Violation of the principles of publication ethics.
Inadequate number of publications, which calls into question their quality.

It is also worth noting that in addition to the results of the Radar system analysis, another reason for excluding journals from the database is “Publication Concerns”.

"Publication Concerns" are issues that may arise during the publication process and affect the reputation of a scientific journal. These include various violations that can undermine the credibility of published articles.

This concerns unfair publishing practices, the posting of materials that do not meet scientific standards, and data manipulation.

Exclusion of scientific journals from the Scopus database is a necessary step that helps maintain a high level of publication quality and authority. In addition, the list of publications that have lost indexation helps scientists when choosing a journal to publish their research.
