Archives of ISPRM

Archives of ISPRM is committed to removing financial barriers in scholarly publishing, ensuring that cost never prevents valuable research from reaching the scientific community.

No Article Processing Charges (APCs)

This journal does not charge any APCs. Authors are not required to pay fees for manuscript submission, peer review, or publication, allowing researchers from all backgrounds to share their work freely.

No Submission Fees

Submitting a manuscript to Archives of ISPRM is entirely free of charge. This applies regardless of the editorial decision, ensuring that authors can submit without financial risk, receive an unbiased and rigorous evaluation, and face no economic barriers to participating in the scholarly dialogue. Whether accepted, revised, or declined, authors never incur a fee.

No Hidden Costs

Our cost-free model applies to all components of the publication process. The journal does not charge for color figures or high-resolution images, supplementary materials (videos, datasets, appendices), extended page lengths, complex figure assemblies or multi-panel graphics, and revisions or resubmissions.

By eliminating publication fees, Archives of ISPRM ensures that authors from all regions—especially low- and middle-income countries—can disseminate their research without financial obstacles. This model supports early-career researchers, clinicians in resource-limited institutions, multinational collaborations, publicly funded research mandates, and open and transparent science.

Our free-to-publish and free-to-read policy aligns with international principles of equitable access and supports the widening participation in global rehabilitation research.
