Iranian Evolutionary and Educational Psychology Journal publishes manuscripts which focus upon the application of evolutionary theory to the Educational and Learning environments. The journal publishes both empirical and theoretical manuscripts from scholars across a range of disciplines including psychology, anthropology, and human behavioral ecology, including the range of sub disciplines within educational psychology as well as the developmental studies in education, cultural studies in education, evolved language mechanisms in learning, gender differences in learning, motivational variables, perceptual capabilities and related Evolutionary and Educational Psychology subjects. Iranian Evolutionary and Educational Psychology Journal publishes both empirical and theoretical manuscripts and welcomes quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-method approaches. IEEPJ is interested in articles that seek to translate evolutionary and educational reasoning into implications for policy and practice.
The journal also publishes reports that present new findings in brief without a lengthy theoretical background. In addition, IEEPJ sees reproducibility as a major challenge facing science in general and encourages the submission of replication studies, especially when they test existing knowledge in ways that probe underlying assumptions, and meta-analyses that assess the overall body of work around a particular question.
