Chinese Journal of Psychology (CJP)
Formerly the Study Report of the Department of Psychology, College of Science, National Taiwan University, the journal was founded in 1958 under the English title Acta Psychologica Taiwanica. In 1973, under the auspices of the Chinese Psychological Association, its Chinese title was changed, while its English title remained Acta Psychologica Taiwanica until 1982, when it was changed to Chinese Journal of Psychology. The Chinese Psychological Association itself was renamed the Taiwanese Psychological Association in 2004. CJP changed from a semi-annual to a quarterly publication in 2003 and now publishes four issues a year in March, June, September, and December. As one of Taiwan’s longest continuously published psychology journals, CJP will reach Volume 68 in 2026 and has played a central role in shaping the development of both locally and internationally engaged psychological research in Taiwan. The journal is guided by an authoritative Editorial Board and maintains a rigorous and fair peer-review process.
CJP accepts research articles, including empirical studies and reviews, as well as brief reports, research reports, and registered reports. All submissions must be original contributions in Chinese or English with clear empirical or theoretical value. Detailed requirements for each category are provided in the journal’s call for papers. CJP accepts submissions year-round. Themed special issues are occasionally published, and proposals should follow the journal’s call for papers and be submitted directly to the Editor-in-Chief.
CJP has been continuously listed in the Taiwan Social Sciences Citation Index (TSSCI) since its establishment in 2000. CJP is classified as a first-tier TSSCI journal. It is also indexed in PsycINFO, Airiti’s Academic Citation Index (ACI), and EBSCO. Since 2024, CJP has been an open-access journal.
