APA Journals

APA Journals The latest research and information from journals published by the American Psychological Association.

-APA began its long publishing history with the Proceedings of the American Psychology Association in 1892.

-APA demonstrated its dedication to the dissemination of knowledge in the 1920s with the purchase and launch of two journals, both of which are still leading journals today.

-The 1950s-1970s saw major expansion and specialization in the behavioral and social sciences worldwide; APA began p

ublishing many influential titles, including the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.

-In 1990, APA created the Educational Publishing Foundation (EPF), a specialty imprint of the American Psychological Association Journals Program to provide innovative publishing services to psychology and the larger behavioral and social sciences community and to support the development of specialized or interdisciplinary journals. The imprint has unique resources and adaptability to support our society publishing partners and developing specialized or interdisciplinary journals.

-In 2001, the launch of PsycARTICLES®, APA’s full-text database, changed the way researchers access and interact with scholarly knowledge.

-Today, APA continues to grow and develop its influential publishing program, which now includes more than 75 top-quality journals in the behavioral and social sciences.

Fessinger and colleagues conducted a survey to catalog the state of open science in the field of psychology and law. The researchers addressed four questions: (a) How do psycholegal researchers define open science? (b) How do psycholegal researchers perceive open science? (c) How often do psycholegal researchers use various open science practices? and (d) What barriers, if any, do psycholegal researchers face or expect to face when implementing open science practices?

Introducing Dr. Etzel Cardeña, the incoming editor of Psychology of Consciousness: Theory, Research, and Practice. Etzel plans to emphasize a more integrated view of alterations of consciousness, so areas that do not “talk” to each other begin doing so, and attract authors from disciplines such as anthropology and the humanities who may not immediately think of a psychology journal as a good niche for their work. https://bit.ly/45GBdJQ

Etzel is Thorsen Professor of Psychology and director of the Centre for Research on Consciousness and Anomalous Psychology at Lund University in Sweden.

Call for papers for a joint special issue of School Psychology & Educational Psychology for Policy and Practice. The editors invite papers that apply psychological science to key issues currently affecting public educational policy or practice in the U.S. Papers should offer a scientific lens for framing informed discussions about “hot button” topics in PK-12 public education, thereby clarifying ongoing debate and leading to strong recommendations for improving public schooling of children in America.

We aim to publish high-quality, impactful work not only on psychological risk and resilience but also on trauma prevention, public health responses, culturally responsive interventions, systemic and structural contributors to trauma, and global perspectives on traumatic stress."

Research shows that the positive socializing effects of parental reasoning and constraints are greater when parents use constraints under the form of logical consequences (i.e., constraints that address the problem created by the rule-breaking behaviour) rather than constraints under the form of mild punishments (i.e., constraints that are unrelated to the rule-breaking behaviour and thus merely rely on aversion).

The academic and personal life of Jean Piaget, a psychologist famously known for his work in child development, changed when he met Susan and Nathan Isaacs in the 1930s. Although the Isaacs were supporters of much of Piaget’s theoretical and empirical work, they also advanced substantial objections to his methodology, empirical results, and theoretical interpretations.

The journal publishes articles that address a broad range of brain-behavior topics and is particularly interested in those that address everyday functioning, cultural factors, social determinants of healthy, brain health, and transdiagnostic constructs.
