The main purpose of the Journal of Educational Psychology is to publish original, primary psychological research pertaining to education at every educational level, from interventions during early childhood to educational efforts directed at elderly adults. A secondary purpose of the Journal is the occasional publication of exceptionally important theoretical and review articles that are directly pertinent to educational psychology. The scope of coverage of the Journal includes, but is not limited to, scholarship on learning, cognition, instruction, motivation, social issues, emotion, development, special populations (e.g., students with learning disabilities), individual differences in teachers, and individual differences in learners.
