Journal Descriptions

The Journal of Disability Policy Studies (JDPS) is a long-standing, quarterly peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to scholarship on disability policy and related public policy analysis. Established in 1990, it serves as a leading platform for researchers, policymakers, practitioners, and advocates to explore and debate contemporary issues in disability policy. The journal’s scope covers a broad range of topics, including legislative analysis, ethics in disability policy, governance and human rights frameworks, comparative disability law, educational access, employment policy, social inclusion, and systemic reforms impacting individuals with disabilities and their families. Emphasizing both quantitative and qualitative research, JDPS encourages multi-disciplinary contributions that inform evidence-based policy decisions and promote social change. Regular features include research articles, policy forums, critical essays, and occasional thematic or special sections addressing emerging challenges in disability policy. Published by SAGE Publications in collaboration with the Hammill Institute on Disabilities, the journal is indexed in major scholarly databases and widely read in social sciences and disability studies. Its quarterly publication schedule ensures ongoing engagement with cutting-edge research that shapes academic inquiry and policy development in disability studies globally.
