Abstract
ABSTRACT The purpose of this manuscript is to provide a summary of Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science (MPEES)-related activities in 2020. In 2020 original submissions (i.e., not counting revised manuscripts) increased by ~84% as compared to 2019. Fifty-three countries were represented across the 386 original manuscripts submitted to MPEES in 2020. MPEES continues to welcome high-quality submissions from around the world in 2021. The seven sections of MPEES are as follows: (a) exercise science, (b) physical activity, (c) physical education pedagogy, (d) psychology, (e) research methodology and statistics, (f) sport management and administration, and (g) tutorial and teacher’s toolbox. More than three-fourths of the manuscripts that were submitted to MPEES in 2020 were submitted to one of the three sections: exercise science or physical activity or research methodology and statistics. MPEES continues to welcome high-quality submissions within each of the seven sections that comprise the journal in 2021. All of the original manuscripts that were submitted to MPEES in 2020 had received an initial decision by May 3, 2021 (i.e., 386 of the 386 manuscripts received). When an immediate decision (e.g., desk-rejection) was rendered by the editor-in-chief it always (i.e., for 288 of 288 manuscripts) occurred within 10 days of receiving the manuscript. When a manuscript was assigned to a section editor by the editor-in-chief it typically (i.e., for 90 of 98 manuscripts) received an initial decision within 90 days of receiving the manuscript. Twenty-three countries were represented across reviewers for the original manuscripts that were sent out for external review by MPEES in 2020. We gratefully acknowledge, and list in the Appendix, the many scholars (N = 176) from around the world who served as a reviewer for MPEES in 2020. Volume 24 (i.e., the volume published in 2020) of MPEES published a total of 32 manuscripts. More than three-fourths of the published manuscripts were submitted to one of the three sections: exercise science or physical activity or research methodology and statistics. MPEES continues to strive for publishing high-quality manuscripts within each of the seven sections that comprise the journal in 2021. Eleven countries were represented across the manuscripts published in Volume 24 of MPEES. MPEES continues to strive for publishing high-quality manuscripts written by one or more authors from around the world in 2021. The 2019 impact factor for MPEES (released in ~June 2020) was 1.75. The value of this impact factor placed MPEES in the second quartile (i.e., ranked #115 out of 263 journals) within the Education & Educational Research category of Clarivate Analytics.
期刊介绍:
The scope of Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science (MPEES) covers original measurement research, special issues, and tutorials within six substantive disciplines of physical education and exercise science. Six of the seven sections of MPEES define the substantive disciplines within the purview of the original research to be published in the journal: Exercise Science, Physical Activity, Physical Education Pedagogy, Psychology, Research Methodology and Statistics, and Sport Management and Administration. The seventh section of MPEES, Tutorial and Teacher’s Toolbox, serves to provide an outlet for review and/or didactic manuscripts to be published in the journal. Special issues provide an avenue for a coherent set of manuscripts (e.g., four to five) to collectively focus in-depth on an important and timely measurement-related issue within the scope of MPEES. The primary aim of MPEES is to publish high-impact manuscripts, most of which will focus on original research, that fit within the scope of the journal.
