Abstract: for more than 50 years, the journal ‘Klinische Psychologie, Psychiatrie und Psychotherapie’ (Clinical Psychology, Psychiatry and Psychotherapy) has been one of the leading journals for articles of the corresponding psychological branches. Regarding the progressing specialization and differentiation of these branches the question arises, if one journal alone can still cover this thematical width. To answer this question, the complete releases of the years 2003 and 2004 of the journal were bibliometrically analyzed regarding a) the presence of the scientific sectors in the article titles and b) their textual focuses. Overall 43 articles were released in the given timeframe. About 25 % each accounted for Clinical Psychology and for Psychotherapy, whereas Psychiatry was hardly represented at all. Furthermore there was a relatively broad publication of articles on the subjects of Medical Psychology and test development. Textual focuses were composed of the prevalences of diverse psychological disorders and of the predictors for the success of psychotherapy. The results basically confirm the journals title, but likewise offer indications for possible changes.

Abstract: Background: Bibliometrical results on the development of clinical psychology publications with historiographical orientation in the 20th century are presented. Research questions: How can the history of clinical psychology and of its research domains be reconstructed biometrically with reference to the publications in international psychology and psychology from the German-speaking countries? Methods: Databases are the Psychological Abstracts (1927-1966), PsycLit (1967-1999) and PSYNDEX (1977-1999), in which psychological publications are documented relatively exhaustively. Results: Historiographically described are (1) the bibliometrically clearly demonstrable boom of clinical psychology publications since the 1950s, (2) the relatively low rate of psychotherapeutically relevant publications in comparison to those concerning disorders, health services, hospital programs, and rehabilitation, and (3) the relatively low rate of empirical and experimental (controlled) studies published on psychotherapy in contrast to all other domains of applied psychology. Consequences: There has been a clear boom of clinical psychology publication output since the 1950s in international psychology, as well as psychology from the German-speaking countries. However, there are publication deficits in the domain of psychotherapy and especially in the domain of experimental and broader empirically founded studies. Problems of bibliometric analyses are discussed as well as the implications of the results for the future of clinical psychology, especially psychotherapy research.
