The Translation of Basic Behavioral Research to School Psychology: A Citation Analysis
Reed, Derek D.
Behavior Analyst Today, v9 n2 p143-149 2008
In recent years, school psychology has become increasingly grounded in data-based decision making and intervention design, based upon behavior analytic principles. This paradigm shift has occurred in part by recent federal legislation, as well as through advances in experimental research replicating laboratory based studies. Translating basic research into practice is commonly known as "bridge" research. The present study analyzed four top school psychology journals with regards to their citation trends both within the school psychology literature and between school psychology and behavior analysis. Findings suggest that collaboration between school psychology and behavior analysis is extremely limited, and lacking in the translation of basic-applied studies. (Contains 1 figure and 1 table.)
