Journal Descriptions

The Journal of Research on Adolescence publishes innovative and rigorous research that advances understanding of adolescent development. We welcome manuscripts from the wide range of topics relevant to adolescent development, using rigorous quantitative or qualitative methodologies. We will consider samples of early adolescence (10-12), middle adolescence (13-15), late adolescence (16-18), and young adulthood (19-25). Manuscripts should clearly articulate the advances in understanding adolescent development and the applications for improving the lives of adolescents. The Journal of Research on Adolescence (JRA) seeks to publish innovative and rigorous research that advances our understanding of adolescent development through examining the diversity of lived experiences from adolescents from across the globe during the second decade of life. Thus, JRA actively seeks and encourages manuscript submissions that account for and highlight the developmental experiences of adolescents using within group designs from specific ethnic-racial groups, gender and sexual minority groups, differently-abled groups, communities in world regions where a majority of the world's adolescent population resides (e.g., Africa, Asia, The Middle East, Latin America and the Caribbean) and of varying socio-economic backgrounds or at the intersection of any of these and other identities. In addition to a commitment to research with adolescents from diverse backgrounds at JRA, we also are committed to diversity and representation in our editorial board and reviewers. We actively seek and recruit editors and reviewers who represent experts in their field but also represent diverse backgrounds across various identities to ensure a comprehensive assessment of the quality and merit of scholarship considered for publication in JRA. JRA seeks to publish innovative and rigorous research that advances understanding of adolescent development in diverse communities around the world. The journal considers manuscripts from the wide range of topics relevant to adolescent development, using rigorous quantitative or qualitative methodologies. We will consider samples of early adolescence (10-12), middle adolescence (13-15), late adolescence (16-18), and young adulthood (19-25). However, samples of university students (typically aged about 18-22 years) need a strong justification that the sample is not one of convenience. Manuscripts should advance understanding of adolescent development, rather than merely study a phenomenon with an adolescent sample, and should therefore be grounded in developmental theory, prior developmental research, and contexts of development. There are no exclusions of particular methodologies, though studies including a diverse and representative sample, with valid and multiple information sources, and/or with best practice quantitative or qualitative analysis strategies are preferred. Manuscripts should clearly articulate the advances in understanding adolescent development and the applications for improving the lives of adolescents.
