Abstract:
A rank-ordered list was constructed that reports the first 99 of the 100
most eminent psychologists of the 20th century. Eminence was measured by
scores on 3 quantitative variables and 3 qualitative variables. The
quantitative variables were journal citation frequency, introductory
psychology textbook citation frequency, and survey response frequency. The
qualitative variables were National Academy of Sciences membership, election
as American Psychological Association (APA) president or receipt of the APA
Distinguished Scientific Contributions Award, and surname used as an eponym.
The qualitative variables were quantified and combined with the other 3
quantitative variables to produce a composite score that was then used to
construct a rank-ordered list of the most eminent psychologists of the 20th
century.
