Abstract
Abstract The purpose of the current content analysis was to describe the publication characteristics found in the International Journal of Community Music from the first print issue in 2008 through 2018. Across the ten years, each of the 30 issues were coded for page length, types of articles, editorials, review board characteristics, single- and co-authored article details, repeat authors and author countries. Results showed that approximately half of the articles were research, with qualitative studies being the most common. Exemplars and position papers were the most common non-research articles. Adults were the most common age level addressed. Approximately three-quarters of the articles were single-authored and the United States was the most common country of publications. Conclusions address the strengths of the journal and future directions for community music writings, including expansion of topics, areas and article formats.
