Definition of an Impact Factor
The impact factor, often abbreviated IF, is a measure reflecting the average number of citations to articles published in science and social science journals. It is frequently used as a proxy for the relative importance of a journal within its field, with journals with higher impact factors deemed to be more important than those with lower ones.

Uses and Limitations
The IF is used to compare different journal titles in the same field
There are queries about the validity of the measure
The IF can be calculated using Web of Science, Scopus and Publish or Perish
Are they useful for your research?Are they useful for Arts & Humanities?
