Abstract

In this article, we attempt two things. First, we begin with reviewing the three principal ways by which academic institutions make their quality assessments regarding different journals. We conclude this section with an assertion that citation-based measures of journal influence are the “most objective.” Second, we review the history of Journal of Retailing (from 1956 Issue 1 to 2009 Issue 2) using citation counts as a surrogate for quality assessment using the citation data contained in the ISI Web of Knowledge database.22As noted in the body of the article, we recognize that there are other sources of citation indices available for such retrospectives. We, however, decided to use the ISI Web of Knowledge because it tracked articles by publication year all the way from 1956 Issue 1 through 2009 Issue 2. Arguably, it is also the most widely recognized and authoritative source of citation appraisal. We conclude with noting the recent impressive scores of the Journal of Retailing in terms of these citation scores and a discussion of what we perceive to be the next set of challenges for the Journal of Retailing.
