OneShe summary
Do not choose a journal by one number alone. Check topical fit, official scope, article type, peer-review policy, publication costs, indexing, and recent issues alongside the metrics.
Submission decision
Speed, cost, and article fit should be read together; this section turns raw metadata into decision support.
| Factor | Current status | How to complete or calculate it |
|---|---|---|
| Submission-to-acceptance time | Pending extraction | Received / Revised / Accepted / Published dates from article HTML, JATS, and PDFs |
| First decision | Waiting for official source | Shown only when the journal, publisher, or DOAJ provides a reliable average |
| Base APC | Needs review | DOAJ, OpenAlex APC, and publication fee pages |
| Submission fee | Needs review | Extract from official Author Guidelines and Fee Policy |
| Waivers and discounts | Needs review | Extract from publisher policies, author country, and article type |
| Article fit | After manuscript upload | Calculated by comparing title, abstract, keywords, method, and article type with recent journal papers |
Journal Fit
Search this journal articlesAfter you enter a title, abstract, or manuscript file, OneShe compares the journal with recent articles from the same journal: topic, method, article type, study population, country/region, terminology, and article structure. This is not an acceptance probability; it is a scientific-fit signal.
Metrics and ranking
Metrics should be read with source and year. JCR and Scopus/SJR do not always mean the same thing.

Citations and real impact
Impact Factor is not enough; citation distribution, self-citation, and citation velocity need separate signals.
A simple OpenAlex-based calculation; not sufficient for scientific decisions alone
Requires article-level citation distribution, not just total citations
Calculated with a fixed citation window such as 24 months after publication
Can be estimated from OpenAlex/Crossref citation graph or Scopus
