Empirical, theoretical and methodological papers are welcomed, including qualitative studies, action research, case studies, critical reviews of the literature, experimental studies and surveys. Important criteria in the selection of process are quality of argument and execution, clarity in presentation and educational significance.

Nordic Psychology reflects the special approaches used by psychologists in Nordic welfare societies.
