Description: This project involves the extraction and coding of titles of articles which mention race/ethnicity/nationality/culture published in psychology journals. An Excel file is included which contains the titles of over 5,000 articles published across 49 psychology-related journals over a period of 14 years that mention race/ethnicity/nationality/culture. Each title has been assigned a single code based on how these terms were used in the title, with the goal of identifying the frequencies in which the backgrounds/origins of study samples from different regions of the world are being specified in the titles. A manuscript is also included ("How USA-centric is psychology? An archival study of implicit assumptions of generalizability of findings to human nature based on origins of study samples"), which provides further detail on the procedures and criteria for selecting, extracting and coding the article titles.
