The Jurnal Psikoedukasi dan Konseling accepts two types of manuscripts: original research articles and review articles in the fields of educational psychology, guidance, and counseling. All submissions must demonstrate academic rigor, methodological quality, and relevance to the journal’s focus and scope.

Original Research Articles

Original research articles report significant findings from empirical studies that contribute to the advancement of knowledge in educational psychology, guidance, and counseling. These articles present the authors’ original research, including the study rationale, research questions or objectives, methodology, findings, and interpretation of results, supported by relevant evidence and scholarly literature.

Eligible studies may employ quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-methods approaches. Quantitative studies may include experimental or quasi-experimental research, survey studies, correlational analyses, and other appropriate statistical methods. Qualitative studies may employ interviews, focus groups, observations, document analysis, or other systematic approaches to exploring psychological, educational, guidance, and counseling phenomena. Mixed-methods studies integrating quantitative and qualitative data are also welcome.

Original research articles generally include an abstract, introduction, method, results, discussion, conclusion, and references. The manuscript structure may be adjusted according to the research design and methodological approach, provided that the study is presented clearly and systematically.

Review Articles

Review articles critically examine, synthesize, and integrate findings from previously published studies on topics relevant to educational psychology, guidance, and counseling. These articles aim to provide a comprehensive understanding of the existing body of knowledge, identify research trends and gaps, evaluate theoretical and empirical developments, and suggest directions for future research and professional practice.

Review articles should employ a systematic and transparent approach to identifying, selecting, and analyzing relevant literature, appropriate to the review methodology. Eligible submissions may include systematic reviews, scoping reviews, meta-analyses, and other rigorous forms of scholarly literature review. Narrative reviews may also be considered when they provide a clear rationale, critical synthesis, and substantial contribution to the field.

Review articles generally include an abstract, introduction, review methodology, results or thematic synthesis, discussion, conclusion, and references, as appropriate to the review design.
