《遺傳心理學(xué)雜志》致力于發(fā)展心理學(xué)領(lǐng)域的研究和理論。它包含了一種生命周期的方法，因此除了專門討論嬰兒期、兒童期和青春期的手稿外，還發(fā)表了關(guān)于成年期和老年期的文章。我們接受教育心理學(xué)領(lǐng)域的投稿，只要它們是發(fā)展性的?？缥幕睦韺W(xué)的論文是可以接受的，但它們必須增加我們對全球比較背景下人類發(fā)展的理解。應(yīng)用的、描述性的和定性的文章，以及作為簡要報告提交的復(fù)制和改進(jìn)，偶爾也會被接受。所有提交給《遺傳心理學(xué)雜志》的論文的評審過程包括雙盲評審。

The Journal of Genetic Psychology is devoted to research and theory in the field of developmental psychology. It encompasses a life-span approach, so in addition to manuscripts devoted to infancy, childhood, and adolescence, articles on adulthood and aging are also published. We accept submissions in the area of educational psychology as long as they are developmental in nature. Submissions in cross cultural psychology are accepted, but they must add to our understanding of human development in a comparative global context. Applied, descriptive, and qualitative articles are occasionally accepted, as are replications and refinements submitted as brief reports. The review process for all submissions to The Journal of Genetic Psychology consists of double blind review.
