physical therapy, mapping, collection development, journalsResumen
This analysis aimed to update previous work about physical therapy (PT) literature by determining the updated core journal titles for the discipline. References from four PT association journals were used for the analysis and Bradford's Law of Scattering was applied. Fifteen journal titles were identified as the core list of journal titles for PT. This updated list of the core journals for PT assists librarians with evidence-based collection development and scholarly communication responsibilities.
