Presentation

Europe’s Journal of Psychology is a free online quarterly peer-reviewed journal publishing original studies, research, critical contributions, interviews and book reviews written by and intended for both psychologists and psychology students worldwide.

EJOP is meant to facilitate communication between psychologists, both students and specialists, and to give them access to high-quality professional information, thus fostering the scientific psychological community in Europe and worldwide. Although primarily targeted at a European public, EJOP gladly hosts contributions from psychologists irrespective of their geographical location.

EJOP’s main objectives are to expand, on the one hand, the publication space offered to scholars and graduate students and, on the other hand, to increase the number of psychology journals that take a more generalist and eclectic approach on psychology issues given the current tendency to produce rather highly specialized works.

Therefore, the journal was conceived in such a manner as to be accessible to both students and professionals and also to a very large area of scientific psychological ‘genres’ and schools. Its structure gives room to a very diverse, eclectic and multidisciplinary range of psychology studies and research:

  • Editorial – members of the editorial team as well as invited professionals present their theoretical conception and express their views on the way psychology is practiced, the role it plays in social life and the way this role is perceived by the public, the importance of research in psychology and the best means to develop and expand it.
  • Interview – well known personalities in the field of psychology and related areas are interviewed regarding a wide range of contemporary psychology issues and the latest developments in their area of expertise. Members outside of the editorial team are also invited to submit interviews for publication. Click here for example of previously published interviews.
  • Global PsyPulse – this column is dedicated to the presentation of future events in psychology in Europe and worldwide. It includes details about conferences or congresses but also features occasionally other aspects of interest for the scientific community (presentation of institutions or psychology programs, psychological tools, etc.).
  • Research Reports – empirical studies, independent of orientation or school, carried out by psychologists and psychology students, individually or in teams.
  • Theoretical Contributions – articles relying on original and creative approaches of a wide range of psychology themes, having at their core the proposal of new concepts, theories or models. Interdisciplinary works are most encouraged.
  • Literature Reviews – critical analysis of existing scientific psychology literature offering an original perspective on already validated and accepted theories, concepts or models.
  • Book Reviews – this column includes reviews of recent books on any topic within psychology (and related fields). Members outside of the editorial team are also invited to submit book reviews for publication. Click here for example of previously published reviews.
  • You are therefore invited to submit an article following the instructions and requirements presented in the section Author’s Guidelines.
