APA Journals

APA Journals The latest research and information from journals published by the American Psychological Association.

-APA began its long publishing history with the Proceedings of the American Psychology Association in 1892.

-APA demonstrated its dedication to the dissemination of knowledge in the 1920s with the purchase and launch of two journals, both of which are still leading journals today.

-The 1950s-1970s saw major expansion and specialization in the behavioral and social sciences worldwide; APA began p

ublishing many influential titles, including the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.

-In 1990, APA created the Educational Publishing Foundation (EPF), a specialty imprint of the American Psychological Association Journals Program to provide innovative publishing services to psychology and the larger behavioral and social sciences community and to support the development of specialized or interdisciplinary journals. The imprint has unique resources and adaptability to support our society publishing partners and developing specialized or interdisciplinary journals.

-In 2001, the launch of PsycARTICLES®, APA’s full-text database, changed the way researchers access and interact with scholarly knowledge.

-Today, APA continues to grow and develop its influential publishing program, which now includes more than 75 top-quality journals in the behavioral and social sciences.

Research shows that the positive socializing effects of parental reasoning and constraints are greater when parents use constraints under the form of logical consequences (i.e., constraints that address the problem created by the rule-breaking behaviour) rather than constraints under the form of mild punishments (i.e., constraints that are unrelated to the rule-breaking behaviour and thus merely rely on aversion).

In his 2024 article, Dr. Martin La Roche, director of mental health training at Boston Children’s Hospital at the Martha Eliot, clarifies and examines the practice implications of cultural psychotherapies and differentiates them from their two predecessors—universalist psychotherapies and racial and ethnic minority psychotherapies.
