Its Scopus CiteScore is 0.8, quartile Q4, 24th percentile. Any "impact factor" quoted elsewhere is not the Clarivate metric. Its SCImago Journal Rank (SJR, a free Scopus-based metric) is 0.200, quartile Q3, with an H-index of 14.
The publisher lists an article processing charge of about US$1,190 for open access (source: OpenAlex). Many journals also publish by the subscription route at no cost to the author, so confirm on the journal's own website.

In its latest 95 research articles (2026), authors are most often from United States (14.7%), Morocco (11.6%) and Japan (9.5%).
