Rapid Quality Check for Academic Journals in Google Scholar Search Results
This Chrome extension displays an academic journal's (and some conference's) rankings next to search results from Google Scholar. This also works for scholar profile pages on Google Scholar and other subpages (e.g. cited by, etc.).
A variety of rankings are available for the user to choose from (SJR, ABDC, ABS, VHB, FT50, CORE, ...). These are interdisciplinary (e.g., SJR, BFI), focused on economics/social sciences (e.g., ABDC, VHB, ...), or focused on computer science journals/conferences (CORE, CCF).
Hovering your cursor over the ranking gives you additional information such as the name of the journal and its h-index. Clicking on the "+" (if available) gives you additional rankings; those that you have not pre-selected.
Via the extension's icon (which you can pin) you can also access a search bar to enter a journal name and get the ranking.

- (2024-02-24, v:4.1.2) Muhammad Asghar: Outdated Credentials of Journals
Some journals are not found like Sustainable Futures is ESCI and Scopus indexed Q1 journal. But not listed here. Some Journal are reported as low category. For example, Journal of the Knowledge Economy is Q2 Journal. But this extension show it as Q3. Needs to be updated. - (2023-01-11, v:4.1.0) Jan Christian Breitsohl: Blocked by Scholar
Hi, absolutely love the tool, will recommend it to all my students but after trying it for a few queries scholar kicked me out, saying: We're sorry... ... but your computer or network may be sending automated queries. To protect our users, we can't process your request right now Any advice how to get back in? - (2022-08-24, v:2.0.3) Florent Erbar: Journal spelling
Papers from Accounting Review (VHB A+) are in some cases entered as "The Accounting Review". In these cases, the plug-in does not find any information on them (e.g. this paper: https://meridian.allenpress.com/accounting-review/article-abstract/89/2/695/165936/Firm-Value-Effects-of-Carbon-Emissions-and-Carbon).
