Journal of Research in Reading (JRR)

The Journal of Research in Reading, established in 1978, is an internationally respected quarterly journal published by Wiley‑Blackwell for the United Kingdom Literacy Association (UKLA). It aims to advance scholarly understanding of reading and literacy by publishing rigorous, peer‑reviewed research that spans theoretical frameworks and empirical methodologies. Articles focus on the psychological processes that underlie reading and the educational environments that shape literacy development. Topics commonly explored include cognitive mechanisms of reading, phonological and morphological awareness, vocabulary and comprehension processes, reading in digital environments, multilingual literacy, and sociocultural factors affecting reading behavior. The journal also encourages comparative research that investigates how literacy learning varies across contexts, languages, and educational systems. In addition to research papers, the journal features critical reviews of key literature, research notes, and discussions that contribute to ongoing academic debates. Because reading and literacy are core to educational success and lifelong learning, the journal’s work has strong implications for teachers, researchers, policymakers, and clinicians seeking evidence‑based insights into literacy instruction and assessment. With its interdisciplinary reach, the Journal of Research in Reading plays a key role in shaping contemporary theory and practice in the fields of educational research, developmental psychology, and language studies.
