SCI is a scientific citation index, and the journals or other documents it retrieves are basically in the scientific direction, such as medical, mathematical, biological, physical, chemical and other professional documents, so it is not suitable for authors of liberal arts majors to publish, but many liberal arts authors also have the need to publish SCI papers, so liberal arts authors can pay attention to SSCI.

The biggest difference between SSCI and SCI is the difference in subject direction. The full name of SSCI is Social Science Citation Index, which is a companion to SCI. The subject scope of SSCI is mainly humanities and social sciences, such as law, economy, history and geography. It is very suitable for liberal arts authors to publish articles in the direction of liberal arts. General SSCI journals are not as difficult as expected. Some journals may not be as difficult as the top core journals in China, but it is also difficult to publish top SSCI journals.

Writing in English is also required for publishing SSCI papers. No matter how difficult it is to publish SSCI journals, standardized English writing is necessary, and the academic value and level of articles are also based on standardized writing. Therefore, we must master the basic requirements of English writing. You can accumulate some writing templates and common sentence patterns. The most direct way is to learn by rote, which can also help some authors who have no experience in English writing to complete their own English papers.
