Abstract: Abstract In an earlier paper we identified three ‘sleeping beauties’ in Psychology, that is three important papers that were not cited by others for many years before becoming much later citation classics. In this paper we identify the ‘princes’ that alerted psychologists to these ‘sleeping beauties’, and we show how new computer-based techniques now help us to locate princes as well as sleeping beauties.
