Journal Impact Factors

On this page you will find information on the 2020 Impact Factors for select Wiley journals in life sciences, materials sciences, environment, chemistry, and physics.

Journal Impact Factors are metrics calculated from data indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection that reflects that years’ average number of citations for articles published in the last two years. They should be used with careful attention to the many factors that influence citation rates, such as the volume of publication and citations characteristics of the subject area and type of journal.

Data in the following tables were calculated by Clarivate Analytics and are collected and updated annually for full calendar years.
