Las publicaciones periódicas de psicología en argentina: Revisión histórica y situación actual

This paper examined the most common publishing journals of psychology in Argentina. The databases of the National Council for Scientific and Technological Information (Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas) were used to identify the significant journals in the fields of humanities and social sciences. The Council proposes specific guidelines for publications following the Bill 2249/14. As such, the journals of psychology go through a three level category systematic process. Results comprised of 49 psychology journals. Journals were further analyzed examining their index criteria, publishing characteristics and the editorial management. It is considered that even when the edition of psychology journals in Argentina has an important trajectory throughout the twentieth century, it was just in the 1990s, when it was possible to project several journals with sufficient solidity and editorial maturity.
