Zusammenfassung:Surveyed the 17 primary American Psychological Association (APA) journals and the American Psychologist for 2 3-yr periods 10 yrs apart to determine whether authors publishing articles in APA journals were APA members. There was a modest decrease between 1973–1975 and 1983–1985 in the percentage of senior authors of articles in APA journals who belong to APA. There was a great deal of variation among journals. APA journals were the preferred outlet for articles by members dealing with professional issues; articles of a more scientific nature were authored by members of other professional organizations.
