| Sumario: |
International journals are considered more prestigious and with more quality
than national ones, although the meaning of this had not been established
until recently. Moreover, internationality has been used as a criterion to
make important decisions, for example to assess the performance of scien-
tists, universities, doctoral degree programs, and so on, without knowing the
exact meaning of internationality. Thus, the current study uses the criteria
of internationality established by a survey on more than 16,000 scientists
from all over the world to create an Internationality Index of multidiscipli-
nary psychology journals published in Ibero-America and included in the
Web of Science. Results show that the most international journal is Revista
Latinoamericana de Psicología, followed by The Spanish Journal of Psycho-
logy, Psicothema and Universitas Psychologica. All the journals fulfill the
criteria for internationality and the study provides very important results which will allow its increase. |
