What is typically required for a publication listed in PSYCHLIT in terms of CE credits?

The correct answer reflects the typical requirement for continuing education (CE) credits associated with publications listed in PSYCHLIT. Specifically, when a work is published, the total CE credits awarded can be divided based on the number of authors.

This system acknowledges that multiple contributors to a single publication may share the recognition of their work, thus dividing the CE credits accordingly among them. For instance, if a publication is co-authored by several individuals, each author could potentially account for fewer CE hours than if one individual authored the entire work alone. This model promotes collaboration while still recognizing the contribution of each author, making it a fair distribution of credit in the context of professional development in psychology.

The other options suggest fixed amounts of CE credits irrespective of authorship which does not align with the collaborative nature of academic publications. The division approach captures the essence of shared authorship and how contributions to a single work can be distinctly quantified in terms of professional credit.
