Significant Publications
with the time and effort I put into published works, I consider the ten publications listed under the previous category all to be significant (modestly so in the context of all psychology publications) -- this extends as well to my 23 published book reviews plus a 24th that is "in press" -- there are, of course, other psychologists with many more publications
