Metrics
“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric. Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline.
Indexing & access
Access status: unknown. Where this comes from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic — confirm on the journal’s own site, especially regarding any article processing charge.

Frequently asked
Is Psychological Review a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Psychological Review. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, which is a positive signal.
Is Psychological Review indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, Psychological Review appears in: Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is Psychological Review's impact?
Papers in Psychological Review are cited about 4.1 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q1, with an h-index of 515. This is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric — and a citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.
Is Psychological Review open access?
We hold no reliable open-access classification for Psychological Review. Check the journal's own site for its access model and any article processing charge.
