Educational Psychology as an Academic Chameleon: An Editorial Assessment After 75 Years.
Ball, Samuel
Journal of Educational Psychology, v76 n6 p993-99 Dec 1984
Content analysis of articles published in this journal was used to analyze research trends since 1910. Emphasis began with practical issues, moved to personal/social issues in the 1940s and 1950s, and concentrated on theoretical issues after 1970. Evaluation, motivation, and linguistics were the three top areas of recent interest. (BS)
