      ab: This study examined the effects of personal and professional faculty characteristics on decisions to disseminate high-quality scholarship to disciplinary social work periodicals. We used a national sample of tenure-track faculty (N = 289) affiliated with PhD-conferring programs to conduct this cross-sectional study. The results of the two-step sequential logistic regression indicated age and area of research interest were significant predictors, with the latter exhibiting large effects. For example, compared to the reference group (health research), faculty with child welfare as their research interest were 16.45 (95% CI [5.65, 47.94]) times more likely to prefer a disciplinary journal compared to an extra-disciplinary journal. The results also revealed faculty who prioritized publishing in extra-disciplinary periodicals tend to rate top-tier social work journals lower in terms of their quality. The results hold significant implications for the development of the profession's distinct knowledge as well as faculty seeking tenure and promotion.
