The International Review of Social Psychology (IRSP) is open for submissions and inviting authors to submit their content for consideration within the early 2019 volume. IRSP publishes empirical research in all areas of social psychology, allowing for varied and wide-ranging subject areas. Any kind of research can be considered, as long as the results significantly enhance the understanding of a general social psychological phenomenon and the methodology is appropriate.

IRSP is a fully online, 100% open access, and APC-free journal, meaning that there are no financial barriers to authors or readers, allowing for a truly global audience. Supported by the Association pour la Diffusion de la Recherche Internationale en Psychologie Sociale (A.D.R.I.P.S.), the journal operates with no author-facing Article Processing Charges (APCs), making all submissions/ publications free to all users of the journal.

The International Review of Social Psychology (IRSP) published its first volume in 1988 and is hence 30 years old this year (1988-2018).

On this special occasion, the editorial team formed a committee that read all of the papers published in the journal and selected an article per year.

You can discover the selected articles on the page: https://www.rips-irsp.com/about/thirty-years/

You can download them all, and (re)discover some of the papers that have been published during the 30 years of existence of the journal.

We wish a happy birthday to IRSP and wish to warmly thank all members of the selection committee, who devoted long hours to reading past issues of IRSP. We would like to especially thank Béatrice Degraeve and Stéphanie Rambaud, our communication managers for organizing the selection process and contacting its members. We also thank the Presses Universitaire de Grenoble for allowing us to make papers they published accessible here.
