A pocos días de que salgan los datos definitivos de JCR, continúan los cambios en el factor de impacto y en las posiciones de las revistas en el área de Comunicación recogidas en Web of Science (WoS). No obstante, a pesar de que existen altercaciones en toda la clasificación, estos cambios son más numerosos en el segundo y tercer cuartil.
De este modo, las primeras posiciones se mantienen y las tres primeras plazas son para Journal of Computer Mediated Communication que ocupa el primer puesto, New Media & Society que se posiciona en segundo lugar y la revista Information, Communication & Society que ocupa el tercer puesto de las publicaciones de Comunicación en JCR.
Por su parte, las revistas españolas se mantienen en el primer cuartil, en el caso de Comunicar manteniéndose en la octava posición, y en el segundo cuartil El Profesional de la Información que ha descendido un puesto con respecto a los datos de mayo y ahora se encuentra en el puesto número 44 del ranking.
Está previsto que en los próximos días se publique la clasificación definitiva de las revistas con los últimos datos actualizados y, al igual que viene ocurriendo en los meses anteriores, es previsible que se produzca alguna modificación en las cifras que alteren la clasificación nuevamente.
