Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to survey the citation of articles published in the Journal of Applied Psychology in Shahid Beheshti University. Methods: An applied research method using the survey method for data collection was used. The study population included 19 issues of the Iranian Journal of Applied Psychology including numbers 17-35 covering the years 2011-2015. The total number of citations in these 19 number is considered to be approximately equal to 4389, by using table of Krejcie-Morgan 1970, the number of 350 citations were chosen with 96% confidence level to determine the authenticity of the documents complying with recommendations suggested by the American Psychological Association (APA). Data collection tool used was a checklist based on research conducted by Azade, Vaez & Gharib (2009). Results: Results indicated that of 516 citations, 367 citations had no citation error. Among the published issues in the Iranian Journal of Applied Psychology, citations of issue number 35 had a better status. In terms of the number of errors, citation errors occurred more for articles than for books and also Latin sources suffered more citation errors than Persian sources. Conclusions: Results showed that citation accuracy of the Iranian Journal of Applied Psychology was better than other similar journals. It is argued that this may be due to the emphasis and insistence of journal staff on adhering to the standards of the APA in article writing and presentation of resources.
