Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis JABA
The Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis (JABA) was established in 1968 for the original publication of reports of experimental research involving applications of the experimental analysis of behavior to problems of social importance.
The Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis was born at a propitious time for behavioral science and immediately attracted an impressive number of subscribers. About 1,500 subscriptions were sold before the first (Spring) issue was mailed in mid-April, 1968. By the time the Summer issue appeared, circulation had doubled to 3,000. At the end of the first year, paid subscriptions totaled 4,271, consisting of 761 institutions (mostly libraries) plus 1,558 individual and 1,952 student subscribers. Circulation continued to rise until it reached a total of 7,097 in 1975.
