We examined self- and cross-citation practices in JABA and JEAB from 1983 through 1992. Mean levels of self-citation for JABA and for JEAB were 22.6% and 36.1%, respectively. Overall, 2.4% of JABA citations were JEAB articles, and 0.6% of JEAB citations were JABA articles, which suggests limited integration of basic and applied research.

International publication trends in basic, applied, and conceptual behavior-analytic journals.

J Appl Behav Anal

The analysis of international and collaborative publication trends in prominent behavior-analytic journals has been a topic of interest for behavioral researchers. This paper focuses on publication trends from 1997 through 2020 in three prominent journals: Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior (JEAB), Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis (JABA), and Perspectives on Behavior Science (PBS). The variable of interest was the percentage of articles published per geographical category-Australasia/East Asia, Europe, Latin America, Middle East, North America, and Africa.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study analyzed self- and cross-citations in the Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis (JABA) and Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior (JEAB) from 2004 to 2018, finding that JABA had a higher rate of self-citations (40.1%) compared to JEAB (28.7%).
  • - A small percentage of citations in each journal were directed towards the other; JABA cited JEAB articles 5.1% of the time, while JEAB cited JABA articles 2.3%.
  • - Despite low overall cross-citation rates, there's a positive trend, with around 28.7% of JABA articles and 27.5% of JEAB

A Model for Training Science-Based Practitioners in Behavior Analysis.

Behav Anal Pract

September 2018

Department of Psychology, Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo, MI 49008 USA.

Our goal should not be to train scientist-practitioners but rather to train science-based practitioners, that is practitioners who base their practice on scientifically solid, applied research; and when caught in a tight spot where there is no (JABA) research on which to depend, they base their practice on basic, scientific research, that is the (JEAB) or more realistically B. F. Skinner's pre-JEAB research.

We explored language used in three behavior-analytic journals (the Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis (JABA), the Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior (JEAB), and Behavior Analysis in Practice (BAP)) to evaluate differences in factors related to the ease of comprehension. Using a linguistic analysis tool, we compared the first three paragraphs of the introductions of research articles in ten issues of each of the journals. JEAB was found to use language that was less concrete, meaningful, and imageable than the two applied journals.

To study the influences between basic and applied research in behavior analysis, we analyzed the coauthorship interactions of authors who published in JABA and JEAB from 1980 to 2010. We paid particular attention to authors who published in both JABA and JEAB (dual authors) as potential agents of cross-field interactions. We present a comprehensive analysis of dual authors' coauthorship interactions using social networks methodology and key word analysis.
