About the Journal

Qualitative Research in Educational Psychology is a leading forum for qualitative researchers in educational psychology and seeks innovative and pioneering work that moves the field forward. The journal has published state-of-the-art debates on specific research approaches, methods, and analytic techniques, such as discourse analysis, interpretative phenomenological analysis, visual analyses, and online research, the role of qualitative research in specific fields such as psychological studies, and the teaching of qualitative methods in the undergraduate curriculum and on educational psychology training programs. The journal has also published informative articles on specific aspects of qualitative research processes such as ethics, transcription, and interviewee recruitment, and helped to promote innovative research techniques such as photovoice, autoethnography, template analysis, and psychogeography. Our audience consists of psychology professionals using qualitative methods of inquiry in research in academic, clinical, or occupational settings. While most readers will be interested in psychology as a discipline, Qualitative Research in Educational Psychology is strongly interdisciplinary in focus. It aims to increase awareness of educational psychology as a social science that embraces a variety of qualitative approaches.
