Deep Dive – Abstracts in
PsycINFO
www.apa.org/pubs/databases/psycinfo
“An abstract is a brief, comprehensive summary of
the contents of an article; it allows readers to
survey the contents of an article quickly, and like a
title, it enables persons interested in a document
to retrieve it from abstracting and indexing
databases.”
“A well prepared abstract can be the most
important single paragraph in an article.”
Estes, W. K., & Skinner, B. F. (1941). Some
quantitative properties of anxiety. Journal of
Experimental Psychology, 29(5), 390-400
“The study focused on the separtion of acculturation…”
“Examined the separation of acculturation-related…”

Retractions
Today…
• Abstracts in PsycINFO are all author abstracts supplied by the journals.
• For foreign language journals to be included in PsycINFO, they must provide English-
language abstracts that live up to APA’s editorial standards.
• We are now including the Impact Statements field for APA open-access journal,
Archives of Scientific Psychology.
