What is the difference between Chinese core journals and science and technology core journals?
Chinese core journals and science and technology core journals were two different types of journals. The main difference was the content and audience of the journals. Chinese core journals referred to Chinese journals that were registered in China and approved by the General Administration of Press and publication and managed in accordance with relevant regulations. These journals usually covered a wide range of subjects, including literature, news, economics, law, education, technology, culture, and art. The review period of Chinese core journals was longer, and the content and quality of the journals were higher. Therefore, they usually had higher academic value and authority. Core science and technology journals were journals that served the field of science and technology. They mainly covered natural science, engineering technology, agricultural science, medicine and health, life science, information science, and many other fields. The review period of core scientific journals was relatively short, and the content and quality of the journals were also high. Therefore, they usually had high professionalism and practicality. In addition to the differences in content and audience groups, Chinese core journals and science and technology core journals were also different in terms of publishing methods, publishing cycles, charging standards, and so on.
