The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. Management Science and Operations Research Q1 (green) comprises the quarter of the journals with the highest values, Q2 (yellow) the second highest values, Q3 (orange) the third highest values and Q4 (red) the lowest values. The set of journals have been ranked according to their SJR and divided into four equal groups, four quartiles. The journal will publish articles from all of the functional areas of economics, as long as these articles are useful for managerial decision-making, and from all the functional areas of business, so long as the articles use economic reasoning. The journal is open to a variety of economic theoretical perspectives, including transaction cost theory, evolutionary theory, resource-based theory, agency theory, game theory, and behavioral decision theory.

Articles are welcomed from economists,strategists, and others using economic reasoning in analyzing business problems. Compared to other journals in economics, the focus of this journal is more normative than positive and the viewpoint is focused on managerial efficiency and firm profitability rather than on social welfare. They can help managers cope with the complexities and uncertainties of a dynamic competitive environment. They can contribute to an appreciation of how industries, organizations, and capabilities evolve. They can help unravel questions regarding what drives performance differences among firms and what allows these differences to persist. For example, economic insights may help in determining which activities to outsource and which to perform internally. Economic thinking and analysis provides a critical foundation for strategic decision-making across a variety of dimensions.
