Aims, scope and focus
Quantitative Methods for Psychology is published by Université d'Ottawa and is in Zone 4 of Psychology in the CAS Journal Ranking (2025 upgraded edition). By OpenAlex counts of its recent articles, its largest topics are Advanced Statistical Methods and Models, Sensory Analysis and Statistical Methods and Statistical Methods in Clinical Trials, together about 32.1% of its articles. Its main subfields are Statistics and Probability. (generated from OpenAlex topic counts and CAS ranking data)
The objective of the journal is to help both beginner and expert researchers acquire methods related to the implementation of experimental paradigms, the description and analysis of data, and the development of quantitative models. By providing practical articles and tutorials, we hope to facilitate the transfer and dissemination of new methodologies and, consequently, give them more visibility in empirical research. The journal also encourages replications and incremental improvements of models. To that end, (i) the journal publishes direct replication studies (a study in which a published experiment is replicated as is) to see how well the results replicates. See editorial in Vol. 10 (2); (ii) the journal also publishes data sets accompanied by an initial model. Subsequent researchers can improve the model, or develop new modeling orientation from a common data set, which reduces the difficulty for comparing models across papers if the data are kept constant. See editorial in Vol. 10 (1) for more; (iii) finally, the journal publishes companion articles which are meant to provide additional information to a source article where complex analyses are used but only succinctly explained. See editorial in Vol. 12 (3) for more.
