The Journal of Child and Adolescent Psychology is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access scientific journal that publishes original research articles, review articles, and critical reviews in the fields of developmental and clinical child and adolescent psychology. The journal aims to advance scientific knowledge and professional practice by publishing high-quality studies on psychosocial development, mental health, behavior, and interventions among children, adolescents, and young people.
Publishes rigorous and high-quality contributions in child and adolescent psychology.
Welcomes scholarly work addressing developmental and clinical issues across diverse contexts.
Supports broad and free access to scientific knowledge for researchers and practitioners.
In order to ensure the faster and more effective dissemination of scientific knowledge, our journal has adopted the Continuous Publication Model. Within this framework, articles that successfully complete the peer-review and editorial processes will be published online immediately upon acceptance, without waiting for a scheduled issue. We believe that this model will make a valuable contribution to authors, researchers, and the wider scientific community.
