From these, the following three were found to be the most predominant: (1) reliability and validity studies of intelligence, personality and achievement tests, (2) studies pertaining to acculturation anid adaptation of Hispanics, and (3) research papers on bilingual/ language issues. It was also found that most of the research was conducted with Mexican origin subiject populations. In addition, inost of the articles in the journal are empirically based reports. Invisible Colleges formed around central figures and institutions which have made outstanding contributions to the HJBS are identified. Among these, the work of researchers from the following institutions are highlighted: (1) the Spanish Speaking Mental Health Research Center at the University of California, Los Angeles, (2) the Spanish Family Guidance Center at the University of Miami, and (3) the Hispanic Research Center at Fordham University.
