Online First Publication Policy

2026-08-03

The International Journal of Psychology and Educational Studies (IJPES) is pleased to announce the implementation of its Online First publication system.

Effective immediately, manuscripts that have successfully completed the peer review, editorial review, proofreading, and production processes will be published online as Online First articles before being assigned to a regular issue.

This system enables accepted articles to become available to the research community without waiting for the publication date of the scheduled issue. Each Online First article will receive its final DOI and will be fully citable from the date of its online publication.

When the corresponding regular issue is published, Online First articles will be assigned their final volume, issue, and page numbers. The DOI and publication record of the article will remain unchanged.

We believe that this publication model will accelerate the dissemination of high quality research in psychology and education while providing authors with earlier visibility and citation opportunities.
