Abstract
This article presents the results of an empirically based research study that addresses two objectives: to examine the affiliations of authors of articles published in social work journals, and to determine if there is an increase in each category of affiliation over time; and to examine if there is an increase in the number of multiple authorships of articles in journals over time. The findings support the contention that university and college professors publish more than practitioners and they also account for the increasing amount of literature published. Additionally, 17% of all articles were co-authored with only a slight increase in co-authorship over time.
