JGIM Ranked #1 in Google Scholar!

 

The 2016 Google Scholar metrics were released last week. This release covers articles published in 2011-2015 and includes citations from all articles that were indexed in Google Scholar as of June 2016.

 

For 2016, Journal of General Internal Medicine is ranked as the #1 journal in the Primary Health Care category! The h-5 index for the journal is now 61, meaning that 61 articles published by JGIM have been cited at least 61 times. I've included an attachment so that you can review the entire category listing.

PCORI-funded testing has shown that a website works to help older adults plan to stay in their homes as they age. The website, which helps people create concrete strategies for common health crises, proved effective in increasing older adults' planning, knowledge about support services, and communication about preferences. When the project leader presented the findings at a national meeting, physician attendees repeatedly told her, "I am going to have my mom and dad go on this website."
