APPENDIX J
Alternative Measures of Published Articles in Psychology
Data from the 1978 and 1979 issues of Science Citation Index have
been compiled on published articles associated with research-doctorate
programs in psychology and are presented in Table J-1. (Comparable data
are not available in any of the other social and behavioral science dis-
ciplines.) Publication counts were associated with programs on the basis
of the discipline of the journal in which the article appeared and the
institution with which the author was affiliated. Two measures have been
derived from the publication records: measure 15, the total number of
articles published in the 1978-79 period that have been associated with a
research-doctorate program, and measure 16, an estimation of the "in-
fluence" of these articles. The latter is a product of the number of
articles attributed to a program and the estimated influence of the
journals in which these articles appeared. The influence of a journal is
determined from the weighted number of times, on the average, an article
in that journal is cited--with references from frequently cited journals
counting more heavily. A more detailed description of the derivation of
these measures may be found in Appendix F of the committee's volume on
the mathematical and physical sciences, wherein a discussion of the
particular limitations of these measures is given on pages 28-29.
Measures 15 and 16 have also been compiled and reported for research-
doctorate programs in 16 disciplines in the mathematical and physical
sciences, engineering, and the biological sciences. The availability in
psychology of measures 15 and 16 as well as measures 17 and 18 affords an
opportunity to compare program results on these two pairs of measures.
Also of interest are the correlations, reported on the second page of
Table J.1, of measures 15 and 16 with each of the other measures used to
evaluate programs in psychology. It is not surprising to find a high
correlation (r = .78) between measures 15 and 17 since both are estimates
of total publication productivity in a program. In comparing these two
measures, however, one should keep in mind that they are based on article
counts from different sets of journals (Science Citation Index versus
Social Science Citation Index) and that the methodologies employed to
derive these counts were quite different.

NOTE: On the first line of data for every program, raw values for each measure are reported;
on the second line values are reported in standardized form, with mean = 50 and
standard deviation = 10. "NA" indicates that the value for a measure is not available.
Since the scale used to compute measure 16 is entirely arbitrary, only values in
standardized form are reported for this measure.
