The Undergraduate Research Journal of Psychology (URJP) at UCLA is now accepting submissions of original undergraduate research papers to be published in the Spring 2025 issue.  

Have you completed a research paper in a psychology-related field (i.e. psychology, cognitive science, neuroscience, linguistics)? Are you looking for a platform to publish your work? If so, The Undergraduate Research Journal of Psychology at UCLA (URJP) WANTS YOU to submit your papers for our annual publication, expected to be released in Spring 2025.

URJP is an organization dedicated to informing the community of psychological findings through research run by undergraduates from all over the world. Last year, we received submissions from both local and international universities. URJP is one of the few established psychology journals that publishes undergraduate psychological research.

Submitted papers must fulfill the requirements below:

• Original work completed by undergraduates (Includes senior honors theses, independent research, reviews, theoretical papers, and other scholarly writing);

• Never before been published.

• Find more details about submission criteria here.

If you have not completed an independent research project, we still encourage you to apply by submitting a “literature review article” which does not require access to original research data.

The deadline to submit papers is Friday, November 29, 2024 at 11:59 P.M. PST. Multiple submissions from one author are welcome. If you would like to submit an article for consideration, please complete the following:

• Replace any identifying information (i.e. author name, institution, mentor names) with empty brackets in order to ensure anonymity within the selection process

• Read our submission criteria to ensure that you are complying with our rules.

• Submit your work through our portal on this website, eScholarship.

• Once you have completed the submission process, please fill out the form linked on the submission page.
