Journal of Psychotherapy Integration, Vol 35(2), Jun 2025, 139-149; doi:10.1037/int0000356
The Journal of Psychotherapy Integration (JPI) has a focus on the internationalization of ideas on psychotherapy integration. To better understand the extent to which published psychotherapy integration scholarship is infused by different cultural perspectives inducive from international collaboration present in this journal, as well as to develop strategies for increasing such collaboration in the future, social network analysis techniques were applied to issues of JPI from 1991 to 2018. The density of international collaborations was tracked over time, and instances of international collaboration were identified within the social network. Analyses found that most published articles in JPI were conducted by authors with U.S. affiliations and that the possible network of international coauthorship is underutilized. The degree of international collaboration did not significantly increase across the period examined. However, the instances of international collaboration on publications in JPI are similar or better than reported in social network analysis of international publications in two comparable journals over the same period. Challenges and strategies for increasing international collaboration are discussed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
