ABSTRACT
As an extension of a recent study on the two metrics of expertise for keynote and other invited speakers at behavior analytic conferences in the United States, this study evaluated 63 continuing education presentations provided by keynote and invited speakers at 17 conferences in Canada during 2021, 2022, and 2023. For each keynote and invited presentation, researchers used Google Scholar to count each speaker’s (a) peer-reviewed publications on their presentation topic and (b) total peer-reviewed publications. Results across all 3 years indicate that over 50% of speakers had zero topic-specific publications and the percentage of speakers with zero topic-specific publications increased slightly across the 3 years. Results also indicate that over 50% of speakers with zero topic-specific publications did not have any peer-reviewed publications. We discuss the findings within the context of other recent studies and changes to guidelines for selecting speakers.
