From the Birth of Occupational Therapy and Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation to Randomized Controlled Trials: The American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation: A Centennial Review

The American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation has entered its second century of publication. In this centennial review, we chronicle the evolution of the journal from its origin in 1922 as the Archives of Occupational Therapy to the present. In particular, we focus on the contributions to the journal and the field of physical medicine and rehabilitation by Founding Editor-in-Chief William Rush Dunton, Jr, MD, and the rise of publication of randomized controlled studies in the journal, thus fulfilling Dr Dunton’s original vision and dream for the field and the journal.
