The scholarly productivity of institutions and their faculty in leading criminology and criminal justice journals

This study extended the work of Sorensen and Pilgrim (2002) by examining the institutional affiliations of authors in leading criminology and criminal justice journals in the subsequent five-year period after their study. Additionally, this study replicated Fabianic's (2002) study, by assessing the average publications of the faculty at the most productive criminal justice graduate programs. The current study examined the years 2000–2004 and made comparisons to the previous studies, which assessed 1995–1999. Findings revealed the University of Cincinnati and the University of Maryland were the most productive institutions and had the most productive faculty.
