Abstract | This study examined the impact of journals that focus on supporting individuals with learning disabilities (LDs). We analyzed the visibility of 360 articles that appeared in seven scholarly outlets (ILD, IJRLD, JLD, LDCJ, LDMJ, LDQ, and LDRP) over a one-year period (2022). Using a two-year Google-based Journal Impact Factor (two-year GJIF), the Journal of Learning Disabilities (JLD) was found to have the greatest impact as measured by the number of citations. JLD articles published in 2020-2021 were referenced an average of 9.24 times in 2022, compared to the remaining journals, which were referenced between 1.45 and 6.00 times. However, the variation in citations for different papers was enormous, even within specific journals (e.g., one JLD study reached 61 citations, while others were not even quoted once). It is essential that key findings about how to effectively support individuals with LDs are disseminated as widely as feasible. Only then will it be possible for them to reach their potential and find their place in the mainstream of society. (As Provided). |
