ABOUT

This resource page was created by members of the Psychology Committee of the Association of College & Research Libraries – Education and Behavioral Sciences Section.


INTRODUCTION

Keeping up with trends and new research in psychology can be a very useful way for Psychology and Social Sciences Librarians to inform their instruction and collections work, as well as relate to psychology faculty and students. The resources on this page provide easy, reliable ways for librarians to keep current.



Blogs

APA Style Blog - The APA Style Blog is the official companion to the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, Sixth Edition. It can be a profoundly useful tool for answering unique APA citation questions concerning issues that are not explicitly addressed in the Manual. It also features engaging discussions about writing and publishing in psychology.

Evolutionary Psychology - Contains discussions about the research and teaching of evolutionary psychology. It is a companion to the open-access, peer-reviewed journal, Evolutionary Psychology.

In the News: Forensic Psychology, Criminology, and Psychology-Law - Operated by Dr. Karen Franklin, a forensic psychologist, this blog focuses on information and commentary specifically in the fields of forensic psychology, criminology, and legal matters in psychology.

Media Psychology Blog - Dr. Pamela Rutledge of the Media Psychology Research Center curates this blog that features articles addressing issues emerging from the increasing presence and penetration of social media and media technologies in our lives. It is primarily intended for a popular audience.

Music Psychology - A rousing and fascinating look at the intersection of music and the psychology. Intended for a more scholarly audience.

PsyBlog - PsyBlog was founded and is operated by Dr. Jeremy Dean of University College London. The site offers thought-provoking, often humorous and entertaining exploration of research about how the mind works, sort of akin to what one might read in a popular publication like Psychology Today. This site can be look to for consistent and erudite food for thought, as opposed to rigorous scientific analysis.

PsycCRITIQUES Blog - PsycCRITIQUES Blog is a companion site to APA's PsycCRITIQUES database which publishes reviews of books and media related to psychology and behavioral sciences. It is edited by Dr. Danny Wedding of the California School of Professional Psychology. Librarians will likely find this resource useful for the purposes of collection development and outreach to psychology faculty, since it is full of very current information.

Research Digest – Operated by the British Psychological Society with a fairly loose focus on behavioral psychology, this blog offers commentary on an extremely diverse range of recent research in psychology.

Sports are 80% Mental: This blog focuses on aggregating cognitive sciences research that specifically addresses sports and kinesiology topics. It’s operated by Dan Peterson, a coach rather than an academic, and is targeted toward other coaches and the general public, yet it contains plenty of fascinating research.
