Journal overview

This journal is part of the Collective Pathway to Open Publishing pilot. If revenue thresholds are met, then all articles in its 2025 volume will be published open access at no cost to authors.  

The purpose of Nordic Psychology is to promote exchange between psychological theory and practical application, through giving access to research to a broad, international readership including researchers, practitioners and students. Empirical, theoretical and methodological papers are welcomed, including qualitative studies, action research, case studies, critical reviews of the literature, experimental studies and surveys. Important criteria in the selection of process are quality of argument and execution, clarity in presentation and educational significance.

Nordic Psychology reflects the special approaches used by psychologists in Nordic welfare societies. This includes a developed public health system, a fine-meshed social security system, a high educational level, a fully developed working programme for children and young persons, and intense working efforts in the area of refugees. Authors submitting articles to Nordic Psychology should in their cover letter relate to how the submitted article relate to the aims and scope of Nordic Psychology.

All peer review is single anonymized and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
