Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology publishes papers that focus on the interrelations between culture and psychological processes. Submitted manuscripts may report results from either cross-cultural comparative research or single culture studies.
Research that concerns the ways in which culture, and related concepts such as ethnicity, affects the thinking and behavior of individuals, as well as how individual thought and behavior define and reflect aspects of culture are appropriate for the Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology.
Cultural Variables. Cultural variables that may be related to the behavior(s) of interest should be assessed rather than relying upon conjectures regarding assumed cultural differences that could be influencing behavior(s).
Empirical Research. Most papers published in the Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology are reports of empirical research. Empirical studies must be described in sufficient detail to be potentially replicable.
- NOTE: The Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology does not publish psychometric studies of test construction or validation. Studies that compare scale performance or factor structure among different cultural groups are also not considered by the Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology.
Reviews and Theoretical Papers. Integrative reviews that synthesize empirical studies and innovative reformulations of cross-cultural theory will also be considered. These reviews are expected to reformulate or offer a novel perspective to an existing cross-cultural theory or research area.
Single Nation/Culture Research. Studies reporting data from within a single nation should focus on cultural factors and explore the theoretical or applied relevance of the findings from a broad cross-cultural perspective.
Methods. Psychology publishes studies using quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods.
