Abstract:
One variable with which to evaluate scientific journals is how often their
articles are cited in the literature. Such data are amenable to longitudinal
analysis and can be used as a measure of a journal's impact on research
within a discipline. We evaluated multiple citation measures for a number of
applied journals in behavioral psychology from 1981 to 2000. The results
indicate a relatively consistent impact across these journals, with some
evidence of growth.
