What this is
PsychReviews is a searchable index of book reviews published in psychology journals and in adjacent fields: cognitive science, psychiatry, and the philosophy of mind and phenomenology. Each entry records the review's title, the reviewer, the journal, and the year, and links to the review at the publisher's site. The index contains metadata only; the reviews themselves stay where they were published.
The site is inspired by PhilReviews, which does the same for philosophy.
Where the data comes from
Entries are harvested from the Crossref public API for a curated list of journals that publish (or historically published) book reviews. Reviews are identified from their metadata, which works better for some journals than others: journals dedicated to reviews (like Contemporary Psychology / PsycCRITIQUES) are indexed nearly completely, while journals whose older reviews were deposited without any "review" marker in the title are under-represented for now. Coverage statistics per journal are in the data files, and the index grows as the harvester improves.
