Abstract

AGUADO-LOPEZ, Eduardo; BECERRIL-GARCIA, Arianna  and  AGUILAR BUSTAMANTE, María Constanza. Universitas Psychologica: a Pathway towards Internationalization. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2016, vol.15, n.2, pp.321-337. ISSN 1657-9267.  https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.upsy15-2.upci.

Internationalization has become a widely accepted goal among all stakeholders in science, who seek visibility across national borders from an exogenous logic in the process of knowledge construction. With this in mind, the road map of Universitas Psychologica - on its way to internationalization- is analyzed. It is concluded that such publication is a reference in the scientific debate of Psychology, given the predominant weight of foreign production, driven mainly by foreign author collaboration; this openness is replicated in domestic production and in the journal usage, whose downloads take place primarily outside the journal's country. For the analysis, it is considered almost a thousand articles of this journal integrated in redalyc.org published in the period from 2002 to 2015; by using the indicators provided by this database related to production, collaboration and usage.

Keywords : internationalization; knowledge construction process; Universitas Psychologica; redalyc.org.
