Report of the Editor‐in‐Chief
报告了期刊投稿量增长35%、审稿速度提升，以及影响因子从1.55降至1.5，并预测2013年将进一步下降。
Abstract Submissions to the Journal continue to increase strongly (up 35% since last year), with a strong international pattern, while our response times are also improving. The JAE 's citation impact factor declined slightly in 2012 from the record high in 2011 (1.55) to 1.5. However, current data on 2013 citations imply a significant decline in 2013 (due to be published in June 2014). Wiley‐Blackwell continue to provide a strong publishing platform with our full archive generating rapidly increasing numbers of downloads.
