Rankings of journals elaborated by scientific bases influence researchers, Stricto Sensu programs and institutions of our academy. Given the small number of empirical and quantitative studies on this subject, we have accessed Web of Science (WoS), Scopus, Google Scholar, Scielo and Spell in order to answer the following question: What is the classification of the Brazilian journals of Administration, Accounting and Tourism in the different bases that calculate impact factor? As a result, we noticed (i) the small presence and growth of the impact of the journals on the Scopus and Scielo bases, (ii) reasonable growth in WoS, but mainly from self-citations, national citations of periodicals and quotations from Brazilian authors, (iii) high correlation between different measures of impact, (iv) lack of significant difference in impact means between some Qualis stratum in different measures, and (v) considerable variation in the impact of the same journal report on different international and national bases. |
