Several published studies have examined which journals publish the highest quality operations management (OM)-related research. This paper will examine if the perceived quality of journals publishing OM-related research is changing. The authors use meta-analysis to examine five existing OM journal ranking studies and ISI impact factors. This technique allows the authors to develop a newly combined OM journal ranking that minimizes the bias, actual or perceived, of past studies. This paper then reports preliminary results from a new citation analysis of two OM journals published between 1999 and 2006: Journal of Operations Management and Production and Operations Management.
