Abstract
Articles published in the Journal of Career Development from 2000 to 2019 were synthesized by article content (e.g., topic, methodology, participant characteristics, sample characteristics, design, statistical sophistication, and reporting standards) and author characteristics (e.g., gender, work setting, country of domicile, leading contributors, and leading institutions) and analyzed for trends over time. International authorship is on the rise with more than half of the lead authors publishing from 2015 to 2019 from outside the USA. Author collaborations and the proportion of research articles increased; Journal of Career Development published nearly 87% of their articles as research studies in the past decade, among the highest proportion of any counseling journal.
