What American psychology needs most is the majority world: Reply to Webster et al. (2021)

Amber Gayle Thalmayer et al. Am Psychol. 2021 Jul-Aug.

Abstract

Webster and team's (2021) extension of our analysis to look at more journals over a longer time period suggests a slightly quicker trend away from Americanness in psychological journals than we found. However, they make a purely binary distinction between American and not American and do not address whether the change they document includes the most relevant increase in representation: that from the majority world. Overall we concur that the pace of change is slow and that our science would be benefited by increased attention to internationalization.
