“…This issue was released in October 2018 (Volume 38, Issue 4). In this Featured Issue, five articles discuss occupational therapy's role on topics pertaining to social determinants of health, caregiver strategies, assessment of children, and intervention to enhance children and youth's use of occupation, participation and health (Knott, 2018).…”

ence. To expound upon the former, we discuss the current performance metrics, special issue feature and conference presentations-and compare each of these 2018 metrics to the 2017 metrics (Classen, 2018). OTJR's performance metrics continue to improve each year. Updated from last year's editorial (Classen, 2018), Table 1 illustrates journal performance metrics, per year, for each year since 2015, when our current editorial team started managing the journal. Of particular interest is the performance of the journal in the first 11 months of 2018 (January 1 to November 20, 2018). The five-year and annual impact factors highlight the continual increase of OTJR's effect on the field of rehabilitation (Clarivate Analytics, 2018). Specifically, OTJR's 2017 five-year impact factor has increased to 1.23, and the one-year impact factor has increased to 1.00. Both five-year and the annual impact factors reflect the increase in the total number of citable submissions per year by scholars in rehabilitation science, occupational therapy science and occupational science. For the first 11 months of 2018, OTJR received 153 original article submissions, which indicates an increase per month (15.3 per month) when compared to the total number of manuscripts received per month for the previous years (e.g., 14.1 in 2017). With the increased total number of submissions per year, and comparing 2018 to 2017, the average time from submission to first decision (on the status of the manuscript) was 44.4 in 2018, vs. 44.5 in 2017; and for average time for reviewer turnaround was 21.0 days in 2018 compared to 21.1 days in 2017. Therefore, although the average number of submissions increased per month we have kept the decision-making time on average a bit shorter than the previous two years. Likewise, the acceptance ratio has also decreased for 2018 to 29.2 vs 29.6 in 2017, suggesting that the exactitude of reviews are increasing and in doing so, enhancing the scientific rigor of the journal.
