Summary

Behavioral research publications in top journals like JEAB, JABA, and PBS are heavily dominated by North American affiliations. International collaboration in behavior analysis remains limited, with few coauthored articles across geographical regions.

Background:

International and collaborative publication trends are of significant interest to behavior-analytic researchers.
Understanding geographical representation in prominent journals provides insights into global research activity.

Purpose of the Study:

To analyze publication trends from 1997-2020 in three key behavior-analytic journals: JEAB, JABA, and PBS.
To quantify the percentage of articles by geographical affiliation and assess international coauthorship.

Main Methods:

Data collected from articles published between 1997 and 2020 in JEAB, JABA, and PBS.
Articles categorized based on author's geographical affiliation (Australasia/East Asia, Europe, Latin America, Middle East, North America, Africa).
Calculated percentage of articles by region and instances of international coauthorship.

Main Results:

North American affiliations accounted for 79% (JEAB), 96% (JABA), and 87% (PBS) of published articles.
International coauthorship (at least two authors from different regions) was low: 12% (JEAB), 4% (JABA), and 4% (PBS).

Conclusions:

The field of behavior analysis, as represented in these prominent journals, shows a strong North American dominance in publications.
Opportunities exist to foster greater international collaboration and diversify geographical representation in behavior-analytic research.
