Birth of a journal: The initiation

Robert S. Daniel University of Missouri

Abstract

Efforts to consolidate the journal-publishing of material on the teaching of psychology were begun in 1950, but the right combination of resources, concerned psychologists, and favorable circumstances did not develop until 1972. Two years of careful planning by the Association's Division Two (Teaching) and its Publications and Communications Board resulted in the initiation of Teaching of Psychology (ToP) in October 1974. Although it was originally planned as a joint venture for two years, with a transfer to the parent society if successful, recent agreements now permit ToP to remain as a divisional journal. There appears to be a developing need and support for divisional journals as supplemental to primary journals but integrated into a systematic communication network for the discipline of psychology.
