Abstract
Citation analysis of the Dialogue was conducted to get knowledge
about the citation pattern; the most cited documents; references per
article; references per year and proposed quantification for the
documents published from 2014 to 2016. The quantitative approach
was adopted for this study. The website of Dialogue was used for
obtaining metadata about the research papers published during 2014-
2016. Google Scholar citation instead of Journal Citation Report was
used for the calculation of proposed Impact Factor (IF). The major
findings of the study reflect that the proposed calculated Cite Score of
the Dialogue for the mentioned period is 0.14 whereas the proposed
self-calculated Impact Factor is 0.22. The citation rate of documents
published in 2014 was recorded more as compared to the rest of the
years. The citation rate should be improved by the inclusion of
Dialogue in indexing databases of international repute. This practice
will enhance quality of the Journal and will be able to create room in
world of Thomson Router and other renowned research databases
