The journal recognises that indexing plays a vital role in increasing the visibility, accessibility, and scholarly impact of published research. Indexing in reputable academic databases ensures that articles are easily discoverable by researchers and practitioners worldwide, amplifying the reach and influence of the work published in the journal.
We are committed to maintaining high editorial and publishing standards to meet the rigorous criteria required by leading indexing services. These standards include having a valid International Standard Serial Number (ISSN), assigning Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) to all articles, maintaining a transparent and robust peer review process, adhering to ethical publication policies, and ensuring a consistent publication schedule. Our editorial board comprises qualified experts with diverse institutional affiliations to promote geographic and disciplinary representation.
Currently, the journal is actively pursuing inclusion in established and respected indexing databases relevant to the fields of educational therapy. These include multidisciplinary and specialised databases such as Scopus, PubMed Central, Web of Science, and the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ). Each indexing service has unique inclusion criteria related to publication history, scope, quality of content, and technical requirements such as metadata and archiving policies. We continuously work to fulfill these criteria by enhancing journal operations, improving article quality, and ensuring compliance with ethical standards recognised internationally.
Because indexing is a gradual and ongoing process, the journal adopts a strategic approach by initially targeting databases with accessible entry requirements and progressing towards more selective indexes. We understand that indexing not only increases article discoverability but also reflects the journal’s commitment to scholarly excellence and integrity. Therefore, we regularly review and improve our editorial policies, production quality, and technological capabilities, such as metadata management and digital preservation, to meet evolving industry expectations.
Authors publishing with the journal benefit from our dedication to indexing, which helps ensure their work reaches the widest possible academic and professional audiences, enhancing citation potential and academic recognition. We encourage authors to review our indexing status and policy as part of their submission considerations and invite inquiries regarding indexing progress from prospective contributors and readers.
We invite educational therapists, allied health practitioners, instructors, and trainees to submit original research, case studies, and professional insights for publication. Share your expertise and contribute to advancing knowledge and practice in the allied health and educational therapy community.
