About the Journal
Journal of Indigenous Psychology is a rigorous, peer-reviewed, open-access academic journal focused on the intersection of culture, context, and human cognition. Driven by the mission of "Unearthing the Cultural Roots of Psychology," this journal is committed to decolonizing mainstream psychological science by amplifying local wisdom, traditional beliefs, and indigenous psychological constructs on the global academic stage.
Focus and Scope
The journal invites scholars to submit empirical research, theoretical reviews, and ethnographic studies that emphasize indigenous perspectives. Our core areas of interest include:
- Indigenous psychological theories and epistemologies.
- Ethno-psychology and cross-cultural behavioral studies.
- Traditional healing practices and local wisdom in psychological well-being.
- The impact of colonization, modernity, and globalization on indigenous identities.
- Culturally grounded methodologies and psychological assessments.
By publishing contextualized and culturally nuanced research, the Journal of Indigenous Psychology aims to foster a more inclusive, diverse, and universally representative psychological science.
