Instructions to Authors
Author Guidelines
The scope of the journal
Cyberpsychology: Journal of Psychosocial Research on Cyberspace is inter-disciplinary journal publishing articles with focus on social science related to cyberspace. We publish original work by scientists emphasizing psychology, media studies, communication science, sociology, political science, nursing, ICT security, organizational psychology and also other disciplines with relevance to psychosocial aspects of cyberspace. We accept all original research articles as well as theoretical studies and research meta-analyses.
Review process and publication of accepted manuscripts
Submitted articles will be first reviewed internally by editors to assure their basic quality and relevance for the journal. In the next step, submissions will be subjected to the double-blind peer review by at least two external reviewers (authors and reviewers are anonymous to each other). Reviews will be forwarded to authors along with the editor's decision.
Typical review process takes from 3 to 6 months (average 4 months), but can be longer under special circumstances. The papers are typically published within 1 to 6 months since acceptance of the paper.
To avoid editorial rejections, please read editorials How to increase probability of manuscript acceptance and How to get your manuscript accepted where we described typical reasons for editorial rejects and the best practices to get your manuscript accepted.
Publication fee. Publication in Cyberpsychology: Journal of Psychosocial Research on Cyberspace is free of charge.
Publication ethics and publication malpractice statement
Cyberpsychology: Journal of Psychosocial Research on Cyberspace follows the standard for Ethics and Publication Malpractice set by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). Authors, reviewers, editors, and publisher are expected to conform to these standards.
Manuscript preparation
This section summarizes the journal’s requirements regarding the format, structure, and other aspects of the submission. Please go through these instructions carefully. Not adhering to these requirements can lead to a desk rejection of the article without assessing its quality.
Cyberpsychology: Journal of Psychosocial Research on Cyberspace uses a double-blind peer-review process. You will be asked to fill in all of the authors’ short biographical notes, add conflicts of interests, and add acknowledgements to designated fields in the submission system, and this information will not be provided to the reviewers. The reviewers will receive the main document in the properly anonymized form (see the section "Anonymization of the manuscript" below).
Length
To facilitate the review process and publication clarity, manuscripts should be no longer than necessary. The submissions should be up to 11,000 words, including references, tables, and figures.
The length of articles can be exceeded when justified by the authors (i.e., in case of multiple studies published in one article or in a deep qualitative investigation). Journal’s editors will critically review articles exceeding the recommended length. Authors may be asked to shorten the submission before sending it to the external reviewers.
Manuscript structure and citations format
The American Psychological Association (APA) standards is used for publications, both in terms of publication structure (i.e., IMRaD) and citation style. Please follow the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (6ed.). Manuscripts that do not follow the required APA style will be rejected directly by editors.
Manuscript format. The preferred format for articles is MS-Word. Prepare one document that will include:
Title page. The title page should include the title of the article, the abstract, five to eight keywords, and the disclosure of interests. The title should be concise and accurately depict the manuscript’s content. The abstract should be self-explanatory and reflect the study well. It should not exceed 250 words. The abstract should briefly mention the focus of the study, the design and the sample, and the basic findings and the importance of the study. The disclosure of interest should include any conflicts of interest that the authors might have. Please state these in anonymized fashion in line with the double-blind review process. You will be asked to declare these in full detail in the designated field of the submission form. If the authors do not have any conflicts of interest, please state so (suggested formulation: “The authors do not have any conflicts of interest to report.”).
The main text. Use Times New Roman font, size 12, with double spacing. The structure of the manuscript should correspond to APA citation style. The main sections, with Level 1 Heading (bold, centered, title case), are: Introduction, Method, Results, Discussion, and References. Level 2 Heading should be bold, left aligned, and in title case; Level 3 Headings should be bold, left aligned, and a lowercase paragraph that ends with a period; Level 4 headings should be bold, italic, and a lowercase paragraph that ends with a period; and Level 5 Headings should be italic and a lowercase paragraph that end with a period.
Please limit the number of footnotes and/or endnotes to a minimum.

Place all tables and pictures in the text at the position where they should be placed. All common formats of tables, images, sound, and videos are accepted.

Anonymization of the manuscript
Replacing identifying self-citations. “Identifying self-citations” are references from which a reviewer can recognize the authors of the submitted manuscript based on the context in which they are used. For instance, a sentence “In a previous study, we suggested that…. (Smith & Clark, 2010)“ contains an identifying self-citation. On the other hand, a sentence “In a study by Smith and Clark (2010), the authors suggest that…” contains a non-identifying citation, because the reviewer is unable to tell that Smith and Clark are the authors of the submitted manuscript. To ensure the double-blind review, identifying self-citations must be replaced. In-text citations should be replaced by “AUTHOR, 2010” (e.g., “In a previous study, we suggested… (AUTHOR, 2010)”) and the source in the Reference list should be replaced by “AUTHOR (2010). Blinded for review purposes,” and placed at the beginning of the Reference list. Non-identifying self-citations, on the other hand, are not replaced and remain un-anonymized.
We recommend using non-identifying self-citations where possible because the referred-to work may contain crucial information (e.g., for justification of the conducted study) for the reviewer to properly evaluate the submitted manuscript.
Replacing other identifying information. Other information that might lead reviewers to recognize the authors might include, for instance, the name of the institute or university where the study was conducted/approved, the project name, the acknowledgement, or the number of preregistered research. Please, replace all such information (e.g., “the project (blinded for the review).”)
Removing author information from the document metadata. The document may keep the information about authorship in its metadata. See here how to remove such information from MS Word: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/remove-hidden-data-and-personal-information-by-inspecting-documents-presentations-or-workbooks-356b7b5d-77af-44fe-a07f-9aa4d085966f
