Publication policy

This journal meets the requirements of the Law of Ukraine for professional journals of List B in psychology.

This journal adheres to high international and domestic standards for the ethics of scientific research. Therefore it accepts papers in the form of anonymous manuscripts that pass on double-blind peer review by anonymous reviewers from a cohort of psychoanalytic specialists. Two reviewers independently evaluate the submitted article according to the criteria of compliance with the journal's purpose, logic, and comprehensibility of the presented content, ethics, and compliance with the current state of psychoanalysis. In this way, the objectivity of the assessment and the validity of the feedback received by the article's author is achieved. Excerpts from the review forms filled out by the reviewers are sent to the article's author, who must present the changes proposed by the reviewers and comment on the review in writing. If the author does not agree with some corrections, their justification is discussed with the reviewer who suggested them. In justified cases, a third reviewer can be invited for consultation.

We note that according to international requirements, the text of the publication, which contains empirical research involving human subjects, should have a clear description of how the written consent of the study participants was obtained and which institution approved the ethics of the study. For example: "The collection of written consent to participate in the study took place together with the main survey (in paper form / in the form of an electronic signature)." "The ethical approval of the research project was confirmed by the Ethics Commission of the National Psychological Association (Protocol No. ... dated 00.00.0000)."

An article that contains a description of a clinical case should be set out, taking into account reservations to preserve the confidentiality of the client/patient. We advise authors of articles describing a clinical case to read the Code of Ethics of the NPA and contact colleagues for supervision or consultation about the possibility of changing or concealing certain details of the case for the protection of the client/patient.
