IJAHP Articles are Now More Accessible than Ever: Full Open Access 

 

 

Dear IJAHP Readers: 

 

The journal has made several important changes this year. First, we moved to a rolling 

article publication mode; that is, articles are published as soon as they are fully reviewed, 

accepted and copyedited. This allows quicker diffusion of the studies and authors’ work.  

 

Our second innovation has been removing the need to register as a reader to access the 

journal contents. The original rationale for this was to assess the number of readers of the 

journal; however, it is now possible to obtain this information with many other tools. 

Even though registration was free, it was still one more step to access the article and 

many people preferred to just skip registration and move to any other article in their 

Google search.  

 

For these reasons, we have decided to eliminate the registration requirement for readers. 

There is another practical and important consequence of this action. Given that access to 

the article is totally open and free, authors are allowed (actually encouraged) to upload 

the full published version of their articles in public repositories such as Researchgate, 

Academia, etc.  

 

It is expected that the lack of registration requirement and the storing of published articles 

in authors’ academic repositories will make IJAHP authors’ research more accessible 

than ever; that is, they will be in full open access mode. 

 

Enjoy our second IJAHP issue of 2022!
