'Impact Factor' is a measure of assessment of ..............
Answer: A
The Impact Factor measures a journal.
Devised by Eugene Garfield and published in the Journal Citation Reports, the Journal Impact Factor for a year is the number of citations received that year by items a journal published in the previous two years, divided by the number of citable items it published in those two years. It is a measure of the journal as a whole.
It is not a measure of a thesis, an individual author or a single article, and using it for them is a known misuse. Authors are measured with indicators such as the h-index, and articles by their own citation counts.
