- Abstract
This study investigated the peer‐reviewed journal publication outlets and impact of school psychology faculty research from the years 2016 through 2020. The National Association of School Psychologists website was used to identify 972 faculty from 195 doctoral and nondoctoral school psychology programs. Faculty publications were identified through a Google Scholar search and using published faculty curriculum vitaes. Journal h‐index impact factors and 2‐year citation rates were collected through SCImago. There were a total of 4354 articles published across 1125 journals during the 5‐year span. The journals Psychology in the Schools, Contemporary School Psychology, and School Psychology were where school psychology faculty published the most and accounted for 13% of the total publications. The average 2‐year citation rate for all journals was 2.83 and the average h‐index for all journals was 69.62. Discussion focuses on the historical and recent trend of school psychology faculty publications and the expanding range of nonschool psychology journals in which faculty publish. Practitioner Points: School Psychology faculty members are more likely to publish in nonschool psychology journals than in school psychology journals. Practitioners evaluating these faculty members works should recognize this as the norm to publish in multiple disciplines.The impact of articles published by school psychologists has increased indicating a greater reach of the work.The greatest number of articles are published in Psychology in the Schools, whereas the highest average article impact is in The Journal of School Psychology.
