THE BEHAVIORAL-SCIENCES AND MANAGEMENT - AN EVALUATION OF RELEVANT JOURNALS

One hundred eighty-nine academics rated 54 journals concerned with the behavioral aspects of management. Journals were evaluated in regard to the quality of research they published. Results of respondents’ ratings are compared to the Social Science Citation Index and earlier studies evaluating managerial journals. In addition, biases hypothesized to affect these ratings are analyzed. Although findings are generally consistent with earlier research, this survey is unique in its focus on the behavioral aspects of management, the large number of rated journals, and its analysis of differences in ratings. © 1990, Sage Publications.
