From the Editor´s Desk
As an experienced editor with 18 years of service to the Journal of Indian Academy of Applied Psychology (JIAAP), I have gained valuable insights into the field of editing a professional journal. This experience has allowed me to initiate a new journal on behalf of the Indian School Psychology Association (InSPA), and I have been privileged to see the first issue of the InSPA Journal of Applied and School Psychology (IJASP) published in October 2019 and now UGC CARE listed in 2023.
The IJASP aims to publish original, empirical papers and critical reviews of the literature on research and practices relevant to applied psychological and behavioural processes in school settings. The journal covers a variety of topics, including intervention techniques and approaches, schooling effects on the development of social, cognitive, mental-health, and achievement-related outcomes, assessment, and consultation. Our goal is to provide a platform for scholars and practitioners to share their research findings and best practices that can benefit the field of school psychology.
Our team at IJASP is passionate about ensuring that the journal is accessible to a wider audience, and we have taken necessary steps to include it in all databases for indexing. This effort will ensure that our readership can easily access our articles and expand their knowledge in the field of applied and school psychology.
I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to the InSPA Governing Council and the Editorial Board for their unwavering support and timely help in bringing out the issues as scheduled. Their dedication and hard work have been instrumental in making the IJASP a success.
The IJASP is a valuable addition to the field of applied and school psychology, and we look forward to receiving more original and impactful contributions. We welcome submissions from scholars and practitioners who are interested in advancing our understanding of the psychological and behavioural processes that influence student outcomes in school settings. Our journal will continue to serve as a platform for cutting-edge research and innovative practices that can benefit the field of school psychology.

INSPA JOURNAL OF APPLIED AND SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY
Aim:
This is the official Journal of the Indian School Psychology Association. The primary objective of the
INSPA Journal of Applied and School Psychology is to publish high quality research in applied and school
psychology. The main focus of the journal is to contribute to the development and maintenance of School
Psychology practice at its highest level. This means that the content should be directly relevant to
professionals working in School Psychology. Any submission to the journal should be based on solid
theoretical or empirical support. This emphasizes the importance of evidence-based practice. Manuscripts
should convey information that is useful in applied school settings, related educational systems, or community
locations where school psychologists are engaged in work. This means the content should have practical
relevance to professionals in these settings.
Scope of Content: Manuscripts can cover broad areas of School Psychology practice, including
individual student, groups of students, teachers, parents, administrators and policy makers and other
community/state beneficiaries. This highlights the broad scope of the journal.
Explicit Practice Implications: Manuscripts should explicitly state the practical implications
of the research or content. The research ramifications should be clearly articulated. Innovation in
Dissemination: The journal is open to novel and creative ways of disseminating information about
theoretically-sound and empirically-supported school psychology practice. This suggests that we are
open to innovative approaches to presenting information. When preparing content for submission to the
INSPA Journal of Applied and School Psychology, it is crucial to ensure that your work aligns with these
criteria and that you clearly address the practical implications of your research or content. Additionally,
adhering to the journal’s specific formatting and submission guidelines is essential for a successful
submission.
