JOURNAL QUALITY LIST Sixtieth Edition, 14 September 2017

Compiled and edited by Professor Anne-Wil Harzing, http://www.harzing.com

Introduction The Journal Quality List is published primarily to assist academics to target papers at journals of an appropriate standard. We would be concerned if the list were used for staff evaluation pur-poses in a mechanistic way. Whilst every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the Journal Quality List, we recommend that it be checked before used extensively for evaluation purposes. The editor will not be held responsible for omissions or errors.

Acknowledgements The first version of the JQL was collated when the editor was with the University of Bradford School of Management (UBSM). The editor gratefully acknowledges the assistance and contri-butions of the following people: Kathy Cousens (UBSM) for the initial data entry work, Victoria Lim, Ulrike Magner, Sebastian Reiche, Dinuka Wijetunga, Shea Fan, Sofie Schütte, Markus Goelz (all University of Melbourne) and Sara de Marco (Middlesex University) for data entry work between 2006 and 2015, Jos Benders, Yehuda Baruch, Malachy Carey, Graham Hooley, Andrew Kirchner, Gunther Maier, Rudolf Sinkovics, and Heinz Tuselmann for pointing out and supplying me with various journal ranking lists and providing corrections. A special thank-you goes to Yves Barlette for consistently reliable updates on new versions of any of the French rankings and to Lars Nondal for updating the Danish Ministry list.

DISCUSSION OF THE RANKINGS [The 53rd edition removed several older rankings that were created between 2001-2005 and had not been updated since then by their providers. It also removed a range of journals in non-core Economics & Busi-ness areas that – after removing the older rankings – only appeared on a single ranking list. The 60th edi-tion removed several older rankings (UQ 2007, Aston 2008, Cranfield 2012) that had not been updated since then by their providers and were probably replaced by the ABDC and ABS rankings.]

EJIS 2007 — European Journal of Information Systems 2007 Mingers & Harzing

This list provides an integrated ranking of all journal rankings available in the JQL as at Decem-ber 2005 (17th edition). The details of its construction as well as a range of additional analyses have been published in the European Journal of Information Systems, vol. 16, no. 4. An earlier working paper is also available from http://www.harzing.com/papers.htm#jqlrank. Two rankings are available (EJIS07 and EJIS07-CI); the second ranking includes the JIF for 2004 as part of its analysis.

[Editor’s note] Some journals had to be removed from this analysis because they had a very lim-ited number of rankings (e.g. all communication journals that were only ranked on the UQ list). Further, many journals have been added to the JQL since this list was constructed. Hence, rat-ings for some 200 journals are not available.

WIE 2008 — WU Wien Journal Rating May 2008 List developed by the Wirtschaftsuniversität Wien (Vienna University of Economics and Busi-ness Administration). For more information and the complete list see: http://bach.wu-wien.ac.at/bachapp/cgi-bin/fides/fides.aspx/fides.aspx?journal=true;lang=DE

The 2001 journal list was updated in the context of an incentive scheme that provided financial incentives for publication in top journals. As such the 2008 list only contains journals with an A+ and A ranking.

[Editor’s note] Journals that were mentioned on the WIE 2008 list, but were not included in the JQL were only included if they had an A+ ranking.

HEC 2011 — Hautes Études Commerciales de Paris Ranking List July 2011 The overall approach to construct this list consisted of searching for an algorithm to combine the different sources of information in a standardized way across all journals of all fields. These sources were expert opinions (solicited from outside of HEC), existing rankings, and journal im-pact factors. Borderline cases were then discussed and some corrections made. All corrections were based on additional factual information (e.g. acceptance rates, evolution of impact factors). The following five existing ranking were used: ABS — Association of Business Schools Academic Journal Quality Guide CNRS — Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (2008), section 37, Economics and Management ERIM — Erasmus Research Institute of Management Journals Listing (2006) FT— Financial Times Journal List (2010) VHB — Verband der Hochschullehrer für Betriebswirtschaft (2008) A detailed description of the method is available at the following address: www.hec.edu/library/HEC-journal-list-method [Editor’s note] In order to keep the JQL to a manageable length, lower-ranked journals (ranking B-C) of the HEC list were only added if they already featured in the JQL. The same principle was applied to French-language journals. Also excluded were journals in the area of law and statistics (unless related to Business & Economics).

UQ 2011 — University of Queensland Adjusted ERA Rankings List This list is a combination of the UQ 2007 list and the ERA (Excellence in Research Australia) list. Information on the ERA list is available at: http://www.arc.gov.au/era/era_journal_list.htm. It is a "Revised ERA" list in that some journals are ranked higher on the UQBS journal list and their higher score is maintained, but no journal is ranked lower than its ranking on the ERA list [Editor’s note] In order to keep the JQL to a manageable length, lower-ranked journals (ranking 3&4) of the UQ list were only added if they already featured in the JQL. The UQ list also includ-ed some professional journals, but these were only ranked if they were already included in the JQL.

Rank Interpretation 1 Highest quality rating, A* ERA 2 Intermediate quality rating, A ERA 3 Intermediate quality rating, B ERA 4 Lowest quality rating, C ERA

ABS 2015 — Association of Business Schools Academic Journal Quality Guide February 2015

The first version of this list was published by Bristol Business School in June 2004, while the second version appeared in 2005 as the Harvey Morris Business Journals List. The original list stems from an analysis of where UK academics declared publications for the purposes of RAE 2001. Other journals were then added through comparison with other lists in circulation. Rank-ings in these lists were standardized at this stage, bearing in mind the UK RAE 2008 classifica-tion of research outputs as 4* (best work in the field), 3* (international excellence), 2* (interna-tionally recognised) 1* (nationally recognised).

In converting the second edition of the HM List to the ABS list the editors followed a nine stage procedure involving significant peer review and review of the quality standards, track records, contents and processes of each journal. For the 2nd (March 2008), 3rd edition (March 2009), 4th edition (March 2010) and 5th edition (February 2015) a review panel of experts considered feed-back from academic associations, publishers and individual academics. For further details see the Introduction to the guide accessible here:

http://www.bizschooljournals.com/

[Editor’s note] In order to keep the JQL to a manageable length, lower-ranked journals (1-3) were only added if they already featured in the JQL. Also excluded were journals in the area of law, education (unless related to Management), psychology (unless related to OB), general so-cial sciences (unless related to Management) and medicine.

Rank Interpretation 4* A world elite journal 4 A top journal 3 A highly regarded journal 2 A well regarded journal 1 A recognised journal

VHB 2015 — Assoc. of Professors of Business in German speaking countries A ranking developed on behalf of the Association of University Professors of Business in Ger-man speaking countries (Verband der Hochschullehrer für Betriebswirtschaft - VHB). This ver-sion (VHB-JOURQUAL 3) is the 4th edition of this list. For details about the update and the pro-cedures followed, see: http://vhbonline.org/service/jourqual/

There is an English-language article on the second edition of the VHB-JOURQUAL which is published as: Schrader, U.; Hennig-Thurau, T. (2009) VHB-JOURQUAL2: Method, Results, and Implications of the German Academic Association for Business Research's Journal Ranking, BuR - Business Research, Official Open Access Journal of VHBVerband der Hochschullehrer für Betriebswirtschaft e.V, Volume 2, Issue 2, December 2009, pp. 180-204.

[Editor’s note] In order to keep the JQL to a manageable length, lower-ranked journals (ranking B-D) of the VHB list were only added if they already featured in the JQL. The same principle was applied to German-language journals. The list also included a range of Engineering and Computer Science as well as Health journals that were not included in the JQL as they were seen as less relevant to Management/Business/Economics.

[Editor’s note] In the current version of the list, a range of journals had fewer than 25 survey re-sponses and hence remained unranked. However, as this would lead to significant loss of in-formation, for these journals we retained their JOURQUAL 2.1 rank in the JQL.

[Editor’s note] The current list is more tightly focused on Business & Management and hence in-cludes fewer Economics and Sociology journals than the previous JOURQUALs.

Rank Interpretation A+ World leading A Leading B Important and respected C Recognised D Peer-reviewed E Ranking no longer included in this version

ABDC 2016 — Australian Business Deans Council Journal Rankings List September 2016

The ABDC Journal List is a collaborative list developed by the Australian Business Deans Council that seeks to list journals relevant to Australian business academics and group these journals into four quality categories ranging in descending order from:

Rank Interpretation A* Best or leading journal in its field - publishes outstanding, original and rigorous

research that will shape the field. Acceptance rates are typically low and the edi-torial board is dominated by leading scholars in the field or subfield, including from top institutions in the world. Where relevant to the field or subfield, the jour-nal has the highest impact factors or other indices of high reputation.

A Highly regarded journal in the field or subfield - publishes excellent research in terms of originality, significance and rigour, has competitive submission and ac-ceptance rates, excellent refereeing process and where relevant to the field or subfield, has higher than average impact factors. Not all highly regarded journals have high impact factors, especially those in niche areas.

B Well regarded journal in the field or subfield - publishes research of a good standard in terms of originality, significance and rigour and papers are fully ref-ereed according to good standards and practices but acceptance rates are high-er than for Tiers A* and A. Depending on the field or sub-field, will have a mod-est impact factor and will be ISI listed.

C A recognised journal - publishes research that is of a modest standard and/or is yet to establish its reputation because of its newness. This tier is more inclusive than the others but only includes refereed journals.

The 2010 ABDC Journal List has been developed after wide consultation across the sector and stakeholders. The following organisations provided input into the process: • Australian Council of Professors and Heads of Information Systems (ACPHIS) • Accounting & Finance Association of Australia and New Zealand (AFAANZ) • Association of Industrial Relations of Australia and New Zealand (AIRAANZ) • Australia and New Zealand Academy of Management (ANZAM) • Australia and New Zealand Communication Association (ANZCA) • Australia and New Zealand International Business Academy (ANZIBA) • Australian and New Zealand Marketing Academy (ANZMAC) • Australian Society for the Study of Labour History (ASSLH) • Council of Law Deans (CLD) • Council for Australian University Tourism and Hospitality Education (CAUTHE) • Economics Society of Australia (ESA) • Institute of Transport and Logistics Studies (ITLS) • Public Relations Institute of Australia (PRIA) • Sport Management Association of Australia and New Zealand (SMAANZ) • Small Enterprise Association of Australia and New Zealand (SEAANZ) • Society of Organisational Behaviour Australia (SOBA

The 2013 revision followed a similarly comprehensive process, which was supported by public submissions according to a standard template, (all available here: http://www.abdc.edu.au/29.116.0.0.1.0.htm), qualitative and quantitative data assessment, pub-lic exposure feedback and international expert consultation. Leading up to the next full review of the list in 2017/2018, ABDC released an interim list in 2016 in which a limited number of new journals were included, very low quality journals were excluded, field classifications changed, and factual errors were corrected. [Editor’s note] In order to keep the JQL to a manageable length, lower-ranked journals (ranking B and C) of the ABDC list were only added if they already featured in the JQL. Also excluded were journals in the area of law, education (unless related to Management), psychology (unless related to OB), general social sciences (unless related to Management),statistics (unless related to Economics or Management) and medicine.

[Editor’s note] The number of actual changes in the JQL version of the ABDC ranking was lim-ited as none of the about two dozen very low quality journals included in the 2013 ABDC rank-ing (most of which were predatory open access journals) had been included in the JQL. Howev-er, some high-quality new journals were added.

Ess 2016 — ESSEC Business School Paris January 2016 ESSEC is one of the top French business schools. Its first journal ranking list was established 20 years ago. The current list is dated January 2016. The ranking of a journal was decided by a committee of seven ESSEC professors with outstanding performance in research. Factors con-sidered are the aim and scope of the journal, the quality of its board, the SCCI impact factor, ex-ternal opinions about the journal, quality of the papers, readership, scale of distribution in librar-ies, journal lifetime, refereeing process, etc. Although it is based on a relatively small number of key informants, the list was included to provide a French perspective on journal rankings.

[Editor’s note] In order to keep the JQL to a manageable length, lower-ranked journals (1-3) were only added if they already featured in the JQL. Also excluded were journals in the area of law, politics, mathematics, computing (unless related to OR), psychology (unless related to OB), and medicine as well as most French journals. Several journals had to be excluded because their titles were ambiguous and/or could not be found in public sources.]

Rank Interpretation 0+ Recognised internationally as the best in the discipline 0 Excellence at a level close to the top journals in the field 1 High level scientific journals of international reputation and circulation 2 Generally national-circulation journals, or international journals of lesser reputation 3 Journals with a very narrow circulation or low profile.

EJL 2016 — Erasmus Research Institute of Management Journals Listing The strategic purpose of the ERIM Journals List is to contribute to the quality of the scientific output of ERIM and to the academic reputation of the institute (see http://www.erim.eur.nl/ejl). The ERIM Journals List (EJL) helps to define the core domain of ERIM and provides direction as to the type of publications that ERIM would like to produce. The practical purpose is to guar-antee to the ERIM members and aspirant members that publications in the journals of the EJL will qualify for membership. The EJL is believed to cover the whole field of research in man-agement, as far as the ERIM research programs are concerned. This does not imply that no credit will be given for publications in journals that are not on the EJL. It is impossible to make an exhaustive list of all the journals in the domain of research in management. The ERIM jour-nal list is based on judgment by peers and (ISI) impact scores.

The first edition of the list came out in 2002. In 2015 ERIM solicited proposals from each re-search program for the fifth edition of the list. Nine journals were upgraded to P*, and 2 journals downgraded to P or removed. Eight journals were upgraded to P or newly added as P, and two journals were downgraded to S or removed. One new PA journal was added and 29 S journals were removed from the list.

[Editor’s note] If a journal of the EJIM list was not already included in the JQL (which apart from half a dozen Dutch journals was rare), it was only added if it had a score of STAR or P(A).

Rank Interpretation P* Top journals among P P Best journals in the field P A Top international journals (aspirant). By 1/1/2016 these journals will be trans-

ferred to the secondary list unless ISI with high impact has been attained S Scientific refereed journals of a recognized academic reputation that do not

reach the quality levels of the Primary Set M* Top managerial journal

FNEG 2016 — Foundation National pour l’Enseignement de la Gestion des Entreprises, version June 2016

A ranking created by the French Management Association to complement the CNRS list, which is oriented more towards Science and Economics. The FNEGE Scientific Board includes all the Academic Associations of Management representing the community of researchers in the field. The list of scientific journals below is unanimously supported by the 14 scientific associations of the discipline with the shared desire to obtain a categorization that reflects as accurately as possible the specificity of management as a science. This unanimous support from a whole sci-entific community confers high legitimacy on it.

In creating the list, the Association combined peer review with reference to a wide range of French and international journal rankings (all included in the JQL) as well as bibliometric indica-tors (ISI Journal Impact Factor, Google Scholar h-index, SCImago SJR).

[Editor’s note] In order to keep the JQL to a manageable length, lower-ranked journals (2-4) were only added if they already featured in the JQL. The same principle was applied to French-language journals. Also excluded were journals in the area of health, politics, and medicine.]

Rank Interpretation 1* Most notable management journals with a prominent position (only 8 journals) 1 Most notable management journals, very selective and particularly recognized

in France and abroad 2 Highly selective journals with a very demanding peer review process 3 Very good journals with a good scientific reputation and significant contribu-

tions 4 Good journals with good selectivity and original contributions

CNRS 2017 — Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (www.cnrs.fr) June 2017 (v.5.01, 12th update of list of journals in Economics & Business)

The list of journals was constructed through consultation with experts in the field, both in France and abroad. Directors of the various research groups (and through them the researchers in the-se groups) were consulted in an iterative process. Rankings of foreign universities were also consulted as well as listings such as SSCI and EconLit. Only academic peer-reviewed journals were included in the list, which therefore excludes high-ranked professional journals such as Harvard Business Review. Rankings are based on several criteria: academic reputation, audi-ence and impact. For more information and the full updated list see: https://sites.google.com/site/section37cnrs/Home/revues37.

The list is updated twice a year (in spring and autumn) after a meeting of CNRS Section 37. The Spring session is devoted to considering new requests submitted by the community (including journals’ editors) to upgrade, downgrade or exclude journals already listed, or to include new ones. The Autumn session re-evaluates a sixth of the list in each domain.

[Editor’s note] In order to keep the JQL to a manageable length, lower-ranked journals (ranking 2-4) of the CNRS list were only added if they already featured in the JQL. Journals in Law, Agri-cultural/Energy Economics and Health that were not already included in other lists were also excluded, as were French journals.

[Editor’s note] Previous lists appeared to have a rather strong bias towards Economics and (to a lesser extent) towards the more quantitative fields of Business (Finance & Accounting, IS and Operations Research). This bias has been largely addressed in the later lists. Many journals in Management & Marketing were upgraded, whilst several journals in Finance & Accounting were downgraded. Even so Management & Marketing still appears to be somewhat undervalued in comparison to other ranking lists in the JQL.

Rank Interpretation 1* Highest quality rating (only 14 journals were given this ranking) 1

Intermediate quality ratings 2 3 4 Lowest quality rating

Den 2017 — Danish Ministry Journal list August 2017 In collaboration with academics, the Danish Ministry publishes an annual list of journals it rec-ognizes as peer-reviewed and of a particular quality. It assessed those included in the list with either a score of 1 (low) or 2 (high). Exact details of this list are unknown, but around 85 % of journals are scored 1, with the remaining 15% scored 2. Of the 900+ journals in the JQL more than 40% are scored 2, clearly indicating that the JQL tends to focus on high quality journals.

Rank Interpretation 2 Top journals 1 Other recognized journals

HCERES 2017 — High Council for Evaluation of Research and Higher Educa-tion (Jan 2017)

The HCERES journal list has been constructed by the section 37 of the CNRS, in consultation with academics from institutions such as CNRS, INRA and CNU. It has continuously evolved over time. The 2017 update is a combination of the CNRS 2016 and FNEGE 2016 list. Journals ranked 1*, 1 or 2 on these lists were classified as A, journals ranked 3 as B, and journals ranked 4 as C.

9

This means that as long as a particular journal had a rank of only one above the lowest of five ranks on either the CNRS or the FNEGE list it would be ranked as B, if it had a middle rank (of five) on either list it would be ranked A. As such there is less differentiation in the highest rank than in other journal rankings with 38% of the ranked journals in the highest (A) category and another 37% in the B category.

[Editor’s note] In order to keep the JQL to a manageable length, lower-ranked journals (ranked B, C or unranked) of the HCERES 2017list were only added if they already featured in the JQL. Journals in Law, Agricultural/Energy Economics and Health that were not already included in other lists in Business and Management were also excluded, as were French journals.

Financial Times Survey of Top Business Schools 2010/2016 Journals used by the Financial Times to compile their lists of top Business Schools are marked with an asterisk in the JQL and are listed below. The list was originally constructed in 2003, re-vised in 2010 increasing the number of journals included to 45 and again in 2016 increasing the number of journals to 50 [2016]. Journals in bold were added in 2016. Journals in brackets were removed in 2016.
