JOURNAL ANALYSIS ON OPHTHALMOLOGY AND OTHERS

Objective: To update knowledge and methods to access and view the journals included in Qualis of CAPES Medicine III, and how to measure the impact factor. Method: Document review on the attempt to verify the way Qualis uses for ranking journals cited by the post-graduate programs of Medicine III in their evaluation periods, and the impact factors obtained by journals indexing base. Results: The classification is annual and are ranking in strata ranging from A1, the highest, and A2; B1; B2; B3; B4; B5; C. The latter has zero evaluation weight. These strata take as reference the impact factor of the journals listed by the programs. The same journal can be classified into different Qualis in other areas, and this is no inconsistency, but expressed the assigned value, in each area, at that particular journal. The Impact Factor is measured using the Journal of Citation Report in Web of Knowledge website. Conclusion: Using the criteria established by WebQualis for stratification of journals there is a quality guidance of what is produced by the program and, based on it, can be made scientific comparison of program performance. Consulting the JCR is recommended because it defines exactly what is the journal's impact factor; Qualis stratifies numerical intervals and not individual journal specificity.研究目标：更新CAPES医学III类Qualis收录期刊的获取与查阅知识及方法，以及影响因子的测算方式。 研究方法：采用文献综述法，对CAPES医学III类研究生培养项目在评估周期内引用期刊时所采用的Qualis排名规则，以及期刊索引数据库的影响因子获取途径进行验证梳理。 研究结果：该分级为年度分类，层级从最高等级A1、A2；B1；B2；B3；B4；B5至C，其中C类的评估权重为零。上述层级以各项目收录期刊的影响因子作为划分依据。同一期刊在其他学科领域可被划分至不同的Qualis层级，这并非分类矛盾，而是该期刊在对应学科领域所被赋予的专属分类结果。影响因子通过Web of Knowledge平台的《期刊引证报告》（Journal Citation Report，JCR）进行测算。 研究结论：依托WebQualis制定的期刊分层标准，可为项目产出成果提供质量指引，并以此为基础开展项目绩效的科学对比。建议通过JCR查询期刊影响因子，因其可精准界定期刊影响因子；而Qualis仅对数值区间进行分层，未考虑单刊的特异性。
