Journal of Studies on Alcohol and Drugs
The Journal of Studies on Alcohol and Drugs (formerly the Journal of Studies on Alcohol and the Quarterly Journal of Studies on Alcohol) is the oldest alcohol/addiction research journal currently published in the United States. Today, JSAD publishes peer-reviewed studies on a wide range of topics related to the consumption of alcoholic beverages as well as the use of, abuse of, and dependence on illegal drugs (e.g., marijuana, heroin) and legal drugs other than alcohol, tobacco, prescription medication). The journal"s archives include some of the classic studies dealing with the screening for and treatment of problem drinking and alcoholism. JSAD is a not-for-profit journal based at the Center of Alcohol Studies, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ.
Impact Factor Trend 2000 - 2025
The impact factor (IF) or journal impact factor (JIF) of an academic journal is a scientometric factor based on the yearly average number of citations on articles published by a particular journal in the last two years. In other words, the impact factor of 2024 - 2025 is the average of the number of cited publications divided by the citable publications of a journal. A journal impact factor is frequently used as a proxy for the relative importance of a journal within its field. Normally, journals with higher impact factors are often deemed to have more influence than those with lower ones. However, the science community has also noted that review articles typically are more citable than research articles.Here you can check the journal performance trends based on last 20 years of data, also check the latest journal citation reports 2025. Also Check H-Index, SCImago journal rank and journal impact factor 2025.

Any journal impact factor or scientometric indicator alone will not give you the full picture of a science journal. That’s why every year, scholars review current metrics to improve upon them and sometimes come up with new ones. There are also other factors to sider for example, H-Index, Self-Citation Ratio, SJR (SCImago Journal Rank Indicator) and SNIP (Source Normalized Impact per Paper). Researchers may also consider the practical aspect of a journal such as publication fees, acceptance rate, review speed.
