The aim of Applied Psychology is to expand the discussion of research in Social psychology, Humanities, Developmental psychology, Ethnology and Personality. The research on Social psychology tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Context (language use) and Perception. The journal is focused mainly on Personality, particularly Big Five personality traits.
The main points discussed in the most cited papers deal with Social psychology, Humanities, Ethnology, Developmental psychology and Job satisfaction. Issues in Social psychology were discussed in the most cited articles, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Well-being and Burnout. The journal articles deal with Humanities in conjunction with Transformational leadership and similar fields in Transactional leadership.
Applied Psychology mainly deals with areas of study such as Social psychology, Cognitive psychology, Applied psychology, Clinical psychology and Perspective (graphical). In the journal, Work engagement, Supervisor and Politics are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Social psychology research. The studies on Applied psychology discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Procrastination, Trait, Test (assessment) and Coaching.
Clinical psychology works presented in the journal have a specific focus on Burnout. Applied Psychology aims to form a more comprehensive understanding of the field by integrating disciplines like Perspective (graphical) and Perception. The Perception study featured in the journal draws parallels with the field of Context (language use).
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Applied Psychology (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Applied Psychology (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
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.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 2.75% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 10.38% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 14.15% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 11.32% of all publications and 64.15% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
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.
Along with the diverse topics and research areas in Applied Psychology, the field yields a variety of fascinating career paths. One critical area of interest is criminal psychology, a subfield of applied psychology that is gaining an increasing focus in Hawaii. Criminal psychology deals with the study of the thoughts, intentions, and actions of criminals. Professionals in this field spend most of their time trying to understand the inner workings of a criminal's mind - a task that requires solid knowledge in areas such as Social psychology, Developmental psychology, and Humanities as discussed in our journal.
Anyone interested in pursuing a career in this field typically holds a doctoral degree in a related area. They also need to have a strong background in research as they often have to analyze extensive data while investigating cases. Additionally, certification might also be required in some situations. To successfully practice criminal psychology in Hawaii, individuals need to understand the specifics of their role and numerous considerations such as the state's regulations, work conditions, and licensing requirements.
