The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.

Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 35.90% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 5.13% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 25.64% of all publications and 33.33% were from other institutions.

The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
If you're considering a career in psychology, it's important to understand the licensure requirements of the state you plan to practice in. For Rhode Island, the requirements are set by the Rhode Island Department of Health. It requires at least a doctoral degree in psychology from an accredited institution, an internship, and passage of a state-administered exam. The first step to obtaining a psychology license in Rhode Island is to complete a Bachelor's degree in Psychology or a related field like sociology or anthropology. This is followed by a Master's degree in Psychology, though some doctoral programs may allow you to enter with just a Bachelor's degree. Rhode Island requires aspiring psychologists to complete a Doctoral degree in psychology from a program that is approved by the American Psychological Association (APA). This includes coursework in foundational areas of psychology, intensive research projects, and supervised experiential learning through internships or practicum experiences. Once you've completed your education, you'll need to complete an internship. Rhode Island requires that you complete at least 2,000 hours of post-doctoral supervised experience. In these internships, you'll have an opportunity to get hands-on experience with various aspects of psychology under the guidance of a licensed psychologist. You will need to pass the Examination for Professional Practice in Psychology (EPPP) , which is administered by the Association of State and Provincial Psychology Boards (ASPPB). This exam assesses your foundational knowledge in psychology and competency in applying it to professional practice. After meeting these requirements, you can then apply for licensure by submitting an application to the Rhode Island Department of Health. The application process also includes a thorough background check. Many wonder, how long does it take to become a psychologist in Rhode Island? On average, from starting a Bachelor’s degree to becoming a licensed psychologist, it can take approximately 10-12 years. However, this timeline can differ depending on your pace of study and the specifics of your path. Remember to factor in that time spent on acquiring practical experience and studying for your licensure exam count towards this timeline.
