Mapping the Terrain of Work/Family Journals

Robert Drago, ,

An expanding body of published research addresses the relationship between paid employment and commitments to kin, an area referred to as work/family research. Largely relying on an electronic database located at Boston College, the authors analyze the prevalence of relevant articles in various journals and the extent of the likely audience for such articles in those journals in an attempt to obtain a well-defined map. The analysis yields rankings of journals. The rankings demonstrate the interdisciplinary nature of the field and highlight the need for researchers to read across disciplines but are unstable. For this and other reasons, the authors recommend reliance on an unranked set of 23 core journals.

Key Words: work • family • journal rankings • publishing
