Abstract:
We conducted an analysis of the sources cited most frequently in primary
empirical reports in the experimental analysis of human behavior (EAHB)
published in four journals between 1990 and 1999. Citation patterns suggest
that modern EAHB is topically focused and relatively independent of both
animal operant research and human research conducted outside of behavior
analysis.

In the paper
Appendix A lists:
Sources most often cited (at least once per year) in experimental analyses
of human behavior published in four journals between 1990 and 1999.
Self-citations were excluded from the analysis.  The left column shows the
total number of citations of each source.  Shown in parentheses following
each reference is the number of citations, respectively, in the Journal of
the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, The Psychological Record, The
Analysis of Verbal Behavior, and Experimental Analysis of Human Behavior
Bulletin. (JEAB = Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, TPR =
The Psychological Record)


Appendix B lists:
Sources cited most frequently (omitting self citations) in experimental
analyses of human behavior published in each of four journals from 1990 to
1999.  Sources shown were cited in at least 10% of articles surveyed,
yielding 14 to 17 sources per journal.  Shown for each journal are the rank
order among the top sources and the raw number of citations.  Sources are
arranged in order of overall citation frequency. (JEAB = Journal of the
Experimental Analysis of Behavior, TPR = The Psychological Record, TAVB= The
Analysis of Verbal Behavior, Bulletin = Experimental Analysis of Human
Behavior Bulletin, T=tie)
