A split bar chart showing the fraction of journal editors who are men or women. The data are broken down in three categories: Psychology, neuroscience, or autism research journals. Autism journals have a higher fraction of women editors, compared with psychology and neuroscience.
Data were collected by Eleanor Palser and her colleagues and include editorial boards for the top 50 English-language journals in psychology and neuroscience, as ranked by Clarivate Analytics’ Science Citation Index Expanded list. Data for autism journals were collected manually and include: Autism, Autism Research and the Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders.
