The SAJP is the official and flagship journal of the Psychological Society of South Africa (PsySSA). The SAJP publishes peer-reviewed contributions in English from all fields of psychology. Whilst the emphasis is on empirical research, the journal also accepts theoretical and methodological papers, review articles, book reviews, and comments on articles published in the journal. Priority is given to articles relevant to Africa and that address psychological issues of social change and development.

PsySSA is proud to announce that Prof Sumaya Laher has been appointed as the Editor-in-Chief of the South African Journal of Psychology (SAJP) for 2025.
