Abstract	Given the frequent use of primary source readings by introductory psychology teachers, especially at liberal arts colleges, we compiled the citation frequencies of classic articles in introductory textbooks to help teachers select readings for their courses. Using a random sample of 24 of the most recent introductory texts (copyright dates 2004-2006), the authors checked for citation of the 40 classic studies that Gorenflo and McConnell (1991) identified as cited in a simple majority of textbooks in the late 1980s. The authors found that 22 of these articles still met this citation criterion. They discuss the general content of these articles and ways to supplement them to comprise a sufficiently diverse set of possible readings for the introductory course. (Author).
