Emerald and the Social Sciences Citation Index

Journal of Social Marketing www.emeraldinsight.com/jsocm.htm and International Journal of Bank Marketing www.emeraldinsight.com/ijbm.htm have both recently been included into the Social Sciences Citation Index. This takes the list of Emerald marketing journals in SSCI to nine. The remainder of the journals in the marketing collection are all included in the Emerging Sources Citation Index (the new service provided by Clarivate Analytics who run SSCI) and a number are currently under evaluation for SSCI. This is of course good news for the community of researchers as it provides more impact factor journals as outlets. The first impact factors for JSOCM and IJBM will be released in 2018 and will be the 2017 impact factors. Coverage is retrospective from 2015.
