APA Reaches PsycINFO Milestone

The American Psychological Association (APA) announced that it indexed the 4 millionth record in the PsycINFO database of scholarly psychology literature. Since 2010, when APA announced the database’s 3 millionth record, it has added more than 200 new journals and 10,000-plus new books.

“PsycINFO’s coverage now extends from the 1892 founding of the field of psychology as a separate discipline to the diverse array of research topics explored by modern-day psychologists across health, education, human factors, mental health, neuroscience, social processes and many other areas of investigation,” says Gary R. VandenBos, APA’s publisher.
