Behaviour Change generally zeroes in on subjects such as Clinical psychology, Cognition, Anxiety, Intervention (counseling) and Project commissioning. In addition to Clinical psychology research, Behaviour Change aims to explore topics under Psychological intervention, Mental health, Psychiatry, Depression (differential diagnoses) and Social psychology. Social psychology and Developmental psychology are closely related fields of research discussed in it.
Behaviour Change explores research in Cognition and the adjacent study of Psychotherapist. It covers Project commissioning research under the subject of Publishing. The Publishing study tackled is a key component of adjacent topics in the area of Media studies.
The published papers mainly tackle studies in Clinical psychology, Anxiety, Intervention (counseling), Social psychology and Cognition. In addition to Clinical psychology research, the most cited publications aim to explore topics under Psychotherapist and Psychiatry, Depression (differential diagnoses). While the journal papers focused on Anxiety, they were also able to explore topics like Developmental psychology and Cognitive therapy.
The objective of the journal is to combine knowledge in the areas of Clinical psychology, Cognition, Anxiety, Social anxiety and Developmental psychology. Behaviour Change facilitates discussions on Clinical psychology that incorporate concepts from other fields like Death anxiety and Cognitive behaviour therapy. Topics in Cognition explored in the journal were investigated in conjunction with research in Generalized anxiety disorder, Internal medicine, Randomized controlled trial and Oncology.
Issues in Anxiety were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Interpersonal communication, Impulsivity, Depression (differential diagnoses) and Action (philosophy). The journal explores topics in Social anxiety which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Social relation, Social adjustment, Cognitive therapy and Chronic condition. The Parenting skills studies presented in the journal fall under the field of Developmental psychology, but it also has connections to other fields such as International research.
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 Behaviour Change (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 Behaviour Change (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, 54.17% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 54.55% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 9.09% of all publications and 36.36% 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.
An essential part of any holistic overview of behaviour change research is looking at which institutions contribute the most significantly to this field. Here, we focus on universities and colleges that have consistently demonstrated excellence in research and education in the field of psychology, with a substantial contribution in terms of research papers and studies in Behaviour Change. One such institution worth mentioning is the University of New Mexico. Known as one of the best colleges for psychology in New Mexico, this university has been critical in advancing research on pivotal topics like Clinical Psychology, Anxiety, and Cognition. With its state-of-the-art facilities and top-tier faculty, the University of New Mexico offers its students an academically rigorous and richly immersive experience in the field of psychology. Several other prominent institutions around the globe also have strong psychology programs and contribute significantly to Behaviour Change research. These include Stanford University, the University of Oxford, and the University of Cambridge among others. These institutions' commitment to research, innovation, and imparting quality education make them key playmakers in this dynamic field, shaping the future of behaviour change theory and practice through their exploration of topics such as Mental Health, Psychiatry, Depression, and Social Psychology. In conclusion, the landscape of behaviour change research is constantly evolving, and these institutions play a crucial role in that evolution. Their dedication to the advancement of knowledge and exploration of innovative treatment strategies continue to propel the field of psychology forward.
