Citations of Articles Published by the Most Productive Social Work Faculties in the 1990s

Abstract

This article reports the resuits of an analysis of the citations of articles authored by leading social work faculties in the 1990s. Find ings suggest that: (1) articles published during the decade by faculty at each of these schools have been cited regularly; how ever, (2) publications of some faculties have been cited far more frequently than others; and (3) articles published in other than social work journals between 1990 and 1997 averaged almost three times the number of citations (M = 4.22) as ar ti cles pub lished in so cial work's proprietary journals (M = 1.69). Moreover, three-fourths of all citations of articles at tributed to the faculties of the four most produetive social work faculties over the course of the decade were in non-social work journals. A specific agenda for future research targeted to understanding and explain ing these trends is identified and recommended.
