Indexing and Discovery
Qubahan Journal of Social Science (QJSS) is committed to improving the international visibility, accessibility, and discoverability of its published research through accurate scholarly metadata, persistent identifiers, academic search platforms, library discovery systems, and recognized abstracting and indexing databases.
QJSS follows a strict transparency principle:
An indexing or abstracting service is listed as an official indexing service only after inclusion has been independently verified through the official source of that service.
Application to a database does not constitute indexing.
Being under evaluation does not constitute indexing.
DOI registration does not constitute indexing.
Appearance in an internet search engine does not constitute formal indexing.
QJSS will not claim Scopus coverage unless and until the journal has been formally accepted and appears as an indexed Scopus source.
Indexing information is reviewed periodically to ensure that all claims remain accurate, current, and verifiable.
