Abstract

In this editorial, the author states that the Journal of Applied Psychology (JAP) publishes original empirical, theoretical, and conceptual research that advances our understanding of affective, motivational, cognitive, and behavioral phenomena in the context of work or employment. In terms of its values, JAP strongly endorses the American Psychological Association (APA) journals' commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) in all aspects of scholarly publishing. Consistent with APA's support of openness and rigor in psychological science, the journal is a leader in promoting open science practices in the fields of industrial-organizational (I-O) psychology and management. In addition, JAP has a strong culture of developmental reviewing, which is carefully balanced with high expectations for methodological rigor, transparency, and reproducibility. Finally, the journal has taken measurable steps to increase the translational impact of work to better bridge the elusive gap between science and practice. Collectively, these characteristics position JAP as a unique outlet for societally relevant, methodologically rigorous, and reproducible science aimed at better understanding the experience of work, as well as improving employee and organizational outcomes. Next, the editorial expands on each of these points in turn. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).

公平、开放、严谨、影响和投资于人：《应用心理学杂志》在行动中的价值观。

在这篇社论中，作者指出，《应用心理学杂志》（JAP）发表了原创的实证、理论和概念研究，这些研究促进了我们对工作或就业背景下的情感、动机、认知和行为现象的理解。就其价值观而言，日本期刊强烈支持美国心理协会（APA）期刊在学术出版的各个方面对公平、多样性和包容性（EDI）的承诺。与APA对心理科学开放性和严谨性的支持一致，该杂志在促进工业组织心理学和管理学领域的开放性科学实践方面处于领先地位。此外，日本有很强的发展审查文化，这与对方法严谨性、透明度和可重复性的高期望相平衡。最后，该杂志采取了可衡量的步骤来增加工作的转化影响，以更好地弥合科学与实践之间难以捉摸的差距。总的来说，这些特征使JAP成为社会相关的、方法严谨的、可重复的科学的一个独特的出口，旨在更好地理解工作经验，以及改善员工和组织的成果。接下来，这篇社论依次展开了这些观点。（PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA，版权所有）。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Applied Psychology® focuses on publishing original investigations that contribute new knowledge and understanding to fields of applied psychology (excluding clinical and applied experimental or human factors, which are better suited for other APA journals). The journal primarily considers empirical and theoretical investigations that enhance understanding of cognitive, motivational, affective, and behavioral psychological phenomena in work and organizational settings. These phenomena can occur at individual, group, organizational, or cultural levels, and in various work settings such as business, education, training, health, service, government, or military institutions. The journal welcomes submissions from both public and private sector organizations, for-profit or nonprofit. It publishes several types of articles, including: 1.Rigorously conducted empirical investigations that expand conceptual understanding (original investigations or meta-analyses). 2.Theory development articles and integrative conceptual reviews that synthesize literature and generate new theories on psychological phenomena to stimulate novel research. 3.Rigorously conducted qualitative research on phenomena that are challenging to capture with quantitative methods or require inductive theory building.
