We list journals (both print and online) within four (nonexclusive) categories: those concerned mainly with career clients (counselors et al.), employers (industrial-organizational psychologists et al.), more general journals in which only some vocational content appears, and miscellaneous journals or magazines. Most of these journals are available in good university research libraries, and many are available online.

For an extensive list of online journals and periodicals related to psychology, see PsychScholar's links.
