Overview

The Graduate Student Journal of Psychology (GSJP) is a peer-reviewed journal consisting of empirical and theoretical articles drawing from all areas of academic psychology. The journal is housed in Columbia University's Teachers College in the Department of Counseling and Clinical Psychology. The journal, now in its 25th year, is open to submissions on a rolling basis and is currently in preparation for its 21st Volume. The Journal emphasizes original scholarship and research by psychology graduate students at the Master's or Doctoral level that is of a high methodological quality, including empirical research articles, case studies, theoretical articles, comprehensive reviews of the literature, and qualitative studies. In the interest of promoting transparency in research methods we also welcome brief reports from researchers at any level (undergraduate, graduate, post-doctoral, or professional) that include rigorously conducted studies that yielded null results; preregistration of proposals for pending studies; and direct replication studies. The journal prioritizes sound methodological quality and replicability over the magnitude of effect sizes, and will consider studies for publication irrespective of significant results. This unique aspect of the GSJP intends to counteract the effect of publication bias toward significant effects in the field of psychology as a whole. Psychological researchers of all levels in the United States and abroad are invited to submit articles to the GSJP.
