Spearman correlations among journal-level bibliometric indicators were uniformly strong and highly significant (Table 6 and Figure 4 ): JIF correlated almost perfectly with CiteScore (ρ = +0.84; 95% CI +0.77 to +0.89; p < 0.001), and inter-metric correlations among CiteScore, SJR, and SNIP exceeded ρ = +0.88 (all p < 0.001).
