About the Journal
The International Journal of Psychology and Technology (IJPT) is a peer-reviewed, open-access, interdisciplinary journal committed to advancing rigorous scholarship at the interface of psychological science and technological innovation. The journal’s scope encompasses empirical, theoretical, and methodological contributions that examine how contemporary and emerging technologies shape human cognition, affect, behaviour, and social interaction across diverse contexts and populations. IJPT prioritises studies grounded in robust research design, transparent reporting, and appropriate statistical or qualitative analysis, with clear implications for theory development, practice, and policy. Core domains include, but are not limited to, cyberpsychology, digital well-being, human–computer interaction, artificial intelligence and machine learning in behavioural contexts, virtual and augmented reality, online learning and digital pedagogy, technology-assisted mental health interventions, computational social science, and the ethical, legal, and societal implications of digital systems. The journal actively encourages interdisciplinary integration, welcoming submissions that draw on psychology, neuroscience, data science, informatics, communication studies, education, and public health to address complex, real-world problems.
IJPT operates a stringent double-blind peer review process supported by an international editorial board, ensuring objectivity, methodological integrity, and scholarly contribution. The journal adheres to internationally recognised publication ethics and best practices, including guidelines from COPE, and promotes open science principles such as data transparency, reproducibility, and responsible reporting. As an open-access publication, IJPT is dedicated to the wide and equitable dissemination of knowledge, enabling unrestricted access to research for academics, clinicians, educators, industry practitioners, and policymakers worldwide. The journal seeks to publish work that demonstrates conceptual novelty, methodological innovation, and global relevance, particularly studies that address digital transformation, mental health challenges in online environments, and human adaptation to rapidly evolving technological ecosystems.
In alignment with the expectations of major indexing services such as Scopus and the Web of Science, IJPT emphasises scholarly impact, citation quality, and international diversity in authorship and readership. The journal encourages submissions that contribute to cumulative knowledge building, cross-cultural perspectives, and translational applications. By fostering a platform for high-quality interdisciplinary dialogue, IJPT aims to position itself as a credible and influential outlet in the evolving landscape of psychology and technology, supporting evidence-based understanding and responsible innovation in the digital age.
