Research articles published in the Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis (JABA) during its first 20 years (1968-1987) are the focus of this review. It is an analysis of five target areas as these appear in 780 research articles published in JABA during this period. These areas include behavior(s), participant(s), setting(s), experimental design(s), and author(s) and are subdivided into more specialized categories for purpose of analysis. Results indicate that JABA has seen a variety of changes in what has been published. The implications for JABA, its history, policies, and future are discussed.
