About the Journal

The International Journal of Educational and Psychological Studies—a peer-reviewed international scientific journal published by the Arab Democratic Center in Berlin, Germany—focuses on publishing research in the fields of psychology and education in Arabic, English, French, and German. Published quarterly, the journal is managed by an editorial board and an international scientific committee that oversee the rigorous double-blind peer-review process for all submitted manuscripts.

Furthermore, the journal adheres strictly to a code of ethics for scientific research and publishing in accordance with established international publication ethics, with which authors are required to comply. In instances of plagiarism or data manipulation, the journal will implement all standard disciplinary measures against the author. Any aggrieved party or individual who detects such misconduct is encouraged to contact the journal, which will promptly investigate the matter and enforce strict penalties if the violation is proven.

Ultimately, the journal publishes high-quality analytical research and empirical field studies, fostering diversity and inclusivity in publishing. By doing so, it actively encourages international scholarly collaboration among authors from all nations and backgrounds.

The journal invites researchers to submit their contributions in psychology, educational sciences, art therapy, developmental psychology, clinical psychology, psychotherapy, applied psychology, industrial and organizational psychology, counseling and guidance, special education, and educational administration. Adopting an open-access policy, the journal ensures its content is immediately available to readers and researchers for direct download.

To maintain research integrity, the journal operates a strict conflict of interest prevention policy. Authors must comply with publication terms by refraining from submitting their manuscripts to any other journal concurrently, pending a final decision from the editorial board. Authors bear full liability for any breach of this exclusivity condition. Furthermore, authors must adhere to established scientific research and publication ethics, guaranteeing the absence of conflicts of interest with their research sponsors. Any potential conflicts must be explicitly disclosed to the journal upon manuscript submission.

Finally, the journal aims to disseminate its content across a global network of academic libraries and major databases, ensuring the long-term preservation and digital archiving of its articles against loss or damage. In tandem, the journal actively encourages authors to self-archive their published work in various institutional or digital repositories without any restrictions.

To prevent academic misconduct, the journal conducts rigorous plagiarism checks on all submissions. Any manuscript failing to comply with these requirements or exhibiting excessive plagiarism will be promptly rejected in accordance with international publishing standards. Authors must thoroughly review and adhere to the submission guidelines and terms of publication prior to submitting their work. For any inquiries regarding the publication process, authors are welcome to contact the journal for clarification.

Under no circumstances are authors permitted to suggest reviewers. The editorial board retains sole authority to appoint reviewers under strict confidence, a binding principle for all parties involved (editor-in-chief, associate editors, and reviewers) to ensure complete confidentiality. If any irregularities are detected, the journal will take decisive action, including a strict prohibition against assigning a manuscript to any reviewer affiliated with the author's institution.

Throughout the process—from initial submission to final publication—the editorial team, scientific board, reviewers, and publisher share the responsibility of maintaining absolute confidentiality and avoiding any conflicts of interest. All parties must uphold objectivity, impartiality, and accuracy in their assigned duties.

Ultimately, the author bears full responsibility for preparing the manuscript in strict compliance with all specified requirements. The journal reserves the right to reject any manuscript that falls short of these standards or violates its publication policy. In such cases, the author will be formally notified of the decision, ensuring their right to withdraw the manuscript and publish it elsewhere.

To ensure citation stability and facilitate seamless tracking and indexing, the journal assigns permanent Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) to all published articles through an official agreement with Crossref. The journal's registered ISSN is: XXXX-XXXX (Online), and the core prefix for its identifiers is: https://doi.org/10.63939/
