Scope and Mission

Archives of ISPRM serves as the official publication of the International Society of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine. We publish high-quality, peer-reviewed research that advances knowledge in physical and rehabilitation medicine, promotes optimal functioning, and improves quality of life for individuals with disabilities.

Open Access Model

All accepted articles are published under an open access model, ensuring immediate and unrestricted availability to readers worldwide. We operate as a 'gold' open access journal—content becomes freely accessible upon publication without embargo periods.

Peer Review

We employ a double-blind peer review process. Manuscripts undergo initial editorial screening followed by evaluation by at least two independent experts. This rigorous assessment ensures scientific validity, methodological soundness, and meaningful contribution to the field.

Editorial Independence

Editorial decisions are based solely on scientific merit, originality, and relevance. The editorial team operates independently from commercial or political influence. Decisions to accept or reject manuscripts rest entirely with the editors based on peer review recommendations.

Publication Ethics

Archives of ISPRM adheres to the guidelines established by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of publication integrity, including proper handling of misconduct allegations, conflicts of interest, and corrections or retractions when necessary.
