Journal Scope
Environmental Psychology Open (EPO) aims to contribute to using psychological knowledge and methods to help shape and sustainably improve our current and future living environments. Therefore, we publish contributions in environmental psychology that advance our understanding of, for example:
- the relationship between humans and their environments
- human reactions to and handling of environmental changes
- the facilitation of the socio-ecological transformation
Contributions must have a psychological focus and should preferably be of practical relevance. Inter- and transdisciplinary contributions are welcome. We publish theoretical and empirical contributions that may draw on different methodological approaches (qualitative, quantitative as well as mixed-methods approaches).
EPO is endorsed by the Environmental Psychology section (Fachgruppe Umweltpsychologie) of the German Psychological Society (DGPs).
