Abstract: It is estimated that at least 80 percent of all college students enroll in introductory psychology. lntroductory texts represent our profession's single most concerted effort to portray the field to tens of thousands of people annually. In fact, McCollum (1973) has suggested that "...psychology is to a large extent what is taught in the first course" (p. 364). It is important to consider how well the content of introductory texts reflects the nature of the field. One way in which this might be done is by analyzing the sources from which introductory textbook writers draw their information. These data, in turn, could be compared to the reputation and impact of these sources within the profession.
