Several journal categories by Chinese
Common types of journals generally include national journals, provincial journals, academic journals, non-academic journals, CN journals, ISSN journals, CSCD journals, scientific papers statistical source journals, SCI journals, etc. The following is a brief introduction.
Generally speaking, “national” journals are journals sponsored by the Party Central Committee, the State Council and their affiliated departments, or by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, democratic parties and national people’s organizations, and the journals sponsored by national first-level professional societies. . In addition, publications clearly marked as “national journals” and “core journals” can also be regarded as national publications. For example, “Chinese Journal of Internal Medicine” is a national journal.
So what are provincial periodicals? In fact, provincial periodicals are journals sponsored by provinces, autonomous regions, municipalities and their subordinate ministries, commissions, departments, and bureaus, as well as journals sponsored by various colleges and universities. For example, “Shanxi Medical Journal” is a provincial journal.
There are two classification methods for journals, academic journals and non-academic journals. Academic journals publish mainly academic papers, while non-academic journals publish documents, reports, speeches, experiences, knowledge, etc. that can only be used as academic research materials rather than articles. Since the selection of “Summary” is based on a large number of articles, a large number of articles and a large number of citations, it does not emphasize the boundary between academic journals and non-academic journals, so naturally there is no strict distinction. “Chinese Journal of Preventive Medicine” is a relatively advanced academic journal.
ISSN publications refer to publications registered outside the territory of China and issued to the public at home and abroad. The ISSN letter is marked before the issue number of this type of publication, which is also easy to identify.
What are CN publications? The so-called CN publications refer to publications registered in China and publicly issued in China. The serial numbers of such publications are marked with CN letters, and people are used to calling them CN publications.

The source journals of the core library have undergone strict selection and are authoritative and representative core journals in various disciplines. The source journals of the extended library have also been selected on a large scale and are among the best journals in various disciplines in China. Core library journals: 669 types ; extended library journals: 378 types (dynamic).
The source journals of scientific paper statistics, also known as the core journals of China’s science and technology, are important scientific journals in various disciplines selected by the China Institute of Science and Technology Information after strict quantitative and qualitative analysis.
SCI “Science Citation Index”, is a world-renowned journal document retrieval tool published by the American Institute of Scientific Information. Select journal sources through its strict selection criteria and evaluation procedures. SCI is divided into SCI and SCI-E from the number of source journals. Under normal circumstances, the journals indexed by SCI are of higher grade, but sometimes it is found that the impact factor of journals included by SCIE may be higher than that of SCI. SCI is a core journal, and all articles are included in SCI; SCI-E is an extended version of journals, not all articles are included in SCI.
