JOURNAL OF GENETIC PSYCHOLOGY

The Journal of Genetic Psychology (ISSN 0022-1325) is a peer-reviewed, bimonthly academic journal published by Routledge in the United States that serves as a dedicated forum for interdisciplinary research at the intersection of genetics and psychology. As a non-open access publication indexed in the Science Citation Index (SCI), the journal focuses on elucidating the complex mechanisms through which genetic factors influence behavioral, cognitive, and emotional development, with particular emphasis on areas such as child development, family studies, and behavioral genetics. While its impact factor fluctuates annually and its standing in the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) journal rankings should be verified against the most recent data, the publication maintains a strong reputation within the scholarly community for its rigorous focus on the hereditary underpinnings of psychological traits. Researchers are encouraged to carefully align their manuscript’s scope with the journal’s specific interest in the genetic-psychological interface to maximize the likelihood of acceptance, ensuring that their contributions address the nuanced interplay between inherited predispositions and developmental outcomes.
