Is Human Kinetics Scopus indexed?
Indexes such as Scopus and Web of Science list journals one by one, so a publisher is never indexed as a whole. For Human Kinetics:

|---|---|---|
| Scopus | 25 | 96% |
| Web of Science: SCIE, SSCI or AHCI | 15 | 58% |
| Web of Science: ESCI | 9 | 35% |
| Journal Citation Reports 2024 | 20 | 77% |
| DOAJ (fully open access) | 0 | 0% |

Can I get an APC waiver from Human Kinetics?
