Yes — actively indexed in Scopus, coverage 2019–present (also 2017), best quartile Q1, CiteScore 4.7.
Data Science is Q1 in Statistics and Probability (rank 43 of 303), Q1 in Computational Mathematics (rank 47 of 212) and Q1 in Modeling and Simulation (rank 98 of 397), by CiteScore 2025. It is ranked in 6 subject areas in all.
Data Science is not in the Web of Science Core Collection (SCIE, SSCI, AHCI or ESCI), so Clarivate publishes no Journal Impact Factor for it. Its Scopus CiteScore is 4.7, quartile Q1, 85th percentile. Any "impact factor" quoted elsewhere is not the Clarivate metric. Its SCImago Journal Rank (SJR, a free Scopus-based metric) is 0.379, quartile Q2, with an H-index of 14.
Data Science is published by SAGE Publications Ltd. Its print ISSN is 2451-8484 and its online ISSN is 2451-8492.

Data Science has an h-index of 20 and a 2-year mean of 0.77 citations per paper (OpenAlex). Its Scopus CiteScore is 4.7, quartile Q1. On 2-year citations it ranks #194 of 294 Scopus journals in Statistics and Probability.
Data Science published 4 papers in 2025; its busiest recent year was 2021 with 72. 2026* is the year so far.
h-index, i10-index and 2-year mean citedness are open, licence-clear metrics from OpenAlex — not a proprietary impact factor. The subject rank counts only journals that OpenAlex has a figure for; it is not a Scopus or Clarivate ranking. Updated 2026-10-14.
In its latest 33 research articles (2021–2026), authors are most often from Netherlands (31.4%), United States (16.5%) and India (12.1%).
Countries are counted fractionally, so a paper by authors from two countries counts half to each.
Scopus status: Active. No retracted papers are recorded. The Problematic Paper Screener flags 2 of its papers. These are indicators to check, not findings against the journal.
Retractions from OpenAlex; flags from the Problematic Paper Screener (Cabanac, Labbé & Magazinov, CC BY), 2026-09-21 export. A flag marks a paper for a closer look; it is not a finding against the journal.
Index data is curated from public sources (Scopus, Web of Science, ABDC, FT50, UT Dallas, DOAJ). CiteScore and quartiles reflect the latest available Scopus release. Always verify a journal's current status on its official source before submitting.
