Peer Review Information & Guidelines
-
Masked Peer Reviews
This journal offers masked peer review (where both the authors’ and reviewers’ identities are not known to the other). Research has shown that masked peer review can help reduce implicit bias against traditionally female names or early-career scientists with smaller publication records (Budden et al., 2008; Darling, 2015).
The manuscript must include a separate title page with the authors’ names and affiliations, and these ought not to appear anywhere else in the manuscript. Footnotes that identify the authors must be typed on a separate page. Make every effort to see that the manuscript itself contains no clues to the authors' identities -
Peer Review Process
Experience our supportive, educational peer-review process, which is double-blind to safeguard both authors’ and reviewers’ identities from each other. After an initial review for relevance to the scope of the journal, the editor will assign an associate editor (AE) to serve as the point person for the review process. If the AE determines that a manuscript can be sent out for peer review, it will be assigned to our internal APA Style reviewer and two or three external doctoral-level content reviewers. Based on the reviews, the AE will make a recommendation regarding the publication, and the editor will make the official decision (reject, major revisions, conditional accept, or accept). Typically, editorial decisions are given within 30 - 45 days after the review process begins 
-
Submission Basics
Submissions to IJABPIS are open year-round, however, the journal will be printed twice a year to promote the two conferences held within the department. Professionals who present at the conference can submit their research for mask review and publication. Undergraduate students, graduate students, and faculty are invited to pursue this unique opportunity to publish their research and gain invaluable research writing experience.
All submissions must be original empirical research, which may cover any topical area in the psychological sciences. Quantitative, qualitative, and replication studies are each welcome.
Manuscripts are peer-reviewed in an online portal, which takes approximately 3 to 4 weeks. Once a work is peer-reviewed, the primary author will receive an email notification (approximately one month after the initial submission) for either
(a) acceptance,
(b) acceptance with minor revisions,
(c) encouragement for major revisions and resubmission, or
(d) rejection.
Accepted manuscripts are generally published within a year after initial submission according to submission dates, revision turnaround time, and at the discretion of the Editor.
If you have any questions about the submission process, email the Managing Editor:
IJABP@famu.edu. -
Scientific Integrity
IJABPIS is the FAMU Department of Psychology’s premiere research publication, it is our goal for all published articles to meet the methodological soundness and writing standards of other academic journals.
- To achieve this, our journal's Editorial Board is dedicated to providing researchers with special direction as needed so that their work ultimately matches the quality of other submissions. Additionally, we will support researchers throughout the publication process.- All articles should include original data collection, secondary data analysis, or meta-analysis.
- Manuscripts must follow a solid research design, use appropriate research analyses, and report all relevant statistical data including all relevant data results pertinent to the purpose of the proposed research article.
- Specific values (think =, not > or <) should always be provided regardless of statistical significance, unless the number is < .001.
- Manuscripts with small sample sizes are required to justify their sample sizes (e.g., unique sample, power analyses, effect sizes).
