About the journal
Australian Journal of Psychology is the premier scientific journal of the Australian Psychological Society. It covers the entire spectrum of psychological research and receives articles on all topics within the broad scope of the discipline. The journal publishes high quality peer-reviewed articles with reviewers and associate editors providing detailed assistance to authors to reach publication.
The journal publishes reports of experimental and survey studies, including reports of qualitative investigations, on pure and applied topics in the field of psychology. Articles on clinical psychology or on the professional concerns of applied psychology should be submitted to our sister journals, Australian Psychologist or Clinical Psychologist. The journal publishes occasional reviews of specific topics, theoretical pieces and commentaries on methodological issues. There are also solicited book reviews and comments.
Occasionally special issues devoted to a single topic, and guest edited by a specialist editor, are published.
The journal regards itself as international in vision and will accept submissions from psychologists in all countries.

Contributions
All submissions should be made online at The Australian Psychological Society's Manuscript Central site to facilitate rapid accessibility of your work to the readers. New users should first create an account. Once a user is logged onto the site submissions should be made via the Author Centre.
Contributions should follow the general style described in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, (5th ed., 2001), except that spelling should conform to The Macquarie Dictionary (3rd ed. rev.). For matters of style not covered in these two publications the Style Manual for Authors, Editors and Printers (6th ed., Wiley) should be consulted. Page references in the following notes are to the Publication Manual.
Manuscripts (pp. 3-29, 283-305)
Manuscripts, not normally to exceed 5000 words, should be typed on A4 (297 mm 210 mm) paper, double-spaced throughout and with margins of at least 4 cm on all four sides.
Abstract (pp. 12, 298)
The abstract of a report of an empirical study is 100-150 words; the abstract of a review or theoretical paper is 75-100 words.
Abbreviations (pp. 103-111)
Abbreviations should be kept to a minimum and in particular not be used for "participant" and "experimenter". Full stops are omitted for many abbreviations, for example, cm, kg.
Metric units (pp. 130-136)
Metric units are used according to the International System of Units (SI), with no full stops when abbreviated.
Statistics (pp. 136-146)
Statistics should be seen as an aid to interpretation and not an end in themselves. Authors are encouraged to state their rejection rate once (e.g., p = .05) and then simply state whether a given statistic is significant or not, by that criterion.
Figures (pp. 176-201)
Figures can be supplied as either tif, eps or jpeg file types. Line art should be of a resolution not less than 600 dpi; black & white and colour halftones should be between 300 and 450 dpi.
References (pp. 207-268)
References are given at the end of the text. All references cited in the text must appear in the reference list.
Blind review
AJP has provision for blind review, in which the author's identity is anonymous to the referees. So that manuscripts can be evaluated by blind review, authors must submit their manuscript with all author-identifiable information removed from the main document.
Free article access: Corresponding authors can receive 50 free reprints, free online access to their article through our website (www.informaworld.com) and a complimentary copy of the issue containing their article. Complimentary reprints are available through Rightslink?and additional reprints can be ordered through Rightslink?when proofs are received. If you have any queries, please contact our reprints department at reprints@tandf.co.uk
