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.

One possibility for promoting more favorable interreligious attitudes comes from social cognitive research on priming, or increasing the salience of particular concepts in a person’s thought processes. According to new research from Peace and Conflict: Journal of Peace Psychology, effects of exposure to abstract and concrete religious words on religious persons’ views of other religious groups seem to depend on individual differences in religiosity, such as whether they have a rigid or open approach to faith.

A recent study from the Journal of Psychopathology and Clinical Science found that autistic adults perform comparably to nonautistic people in a divergent thinking creativity task. According to the authors, autistic adults report more creative accomplishments and behaviors than nonautistic adults, but these differences could be explained by attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder ( ). The study concludes that enhanced in may largely be driven by co-occurring attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Read the open access article: https://bit.ly/3FPUy0i
