Abstract: To the Editor: The 2-year impact factor (IF) from Journal Citation Reports (JCR) is the most commonly used bibliometric index for assessing the influence of a scientific journal. It reproduces the citations of articles within JCR publications over the previous 2 years.1 In 2019, the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology (JAAD) had 4296 citations from 519 citable articles published in 2018 and 2019, resulting in a 2019 IF calculated as 4296/519 = 8.277.
