This is the Journal of Business and Psychology 2024 year-end report.
In 2024 we received 1633 new submissions (a journal record). We also 170 revisions (journal record). So, overall, the journal was very busy. Up a whopping 21 percent.
Downloads
This is such a key indicator of impact. We are again at an all-time high:
- 2021: 499,223 downloads
- 2022: 591,991downloads
- 2023: 718,818 downloads
- 2024: 819,799K
Where Papers Come From
The bulk of our papers come from the US, China, Germany, Canada, and the UK. Of all countries, German papers had the highest acceptance rate this past year.
Initial Screening
Decisions are made quite quickly. Upon receiving a paper, if it is desk rejected, it happens in 3 days on average. Desk reject rate is approximately 60%, with another 19% given what we call a friendly desk reject where we let authors address minor concerns from the screening phase.
Reviewer Actions
Reviewers accept invitations in just 2.5 days on average. Reviewers, on average, completed their reviews in 42 days.
Editor Decisions
Overall, for 2024 we had around a 4.3% acceptance rate. This is a little deceiving though as we have a very high desk reject rate. In fact, of the papers we put under review, around 33% receive R&Rs. And, only around 13 percent of R&Rs are rejected! None after the first revision. It is also very rare to go beyond 2 revisions going out to reviewers so the review process does not drag out. This is definitely something very important to us. First round decisions were made in 88 days from submission on average.
Open Science/Better Science
So excited to share with you that our repository is now robust with materials rarely found with published articles. We worked with the Center of Open Science to create a repository associated with every article we publish where authors can choose to put measures, code, procedures, and/or data. This initiative is voluntary, but author response has been fantastic.

The results-blind review initiative is moving forward. We get at least one submission a month. More info can be found here jbp.uncc.edu. We have published papers submitted for this initiative. We don't asterisk or note papers published in the format. Everything we are seeing to date is quite positive about this approach. The published work answers important questions in rigorous ways – the actual findings do not come into play, only the competence in which they were carried out.

Big congratulations to Liu-Qin Yang (Portland State University) and Yujie (Jessie) Zhan (Wilfrid Laurier University), for being the recipient of the 2024 JBP Stan Gully Award for Sustained Excellence in Reviewing. This is an award recognizing a JBP board member for 7 or more years of sustained excellence in reviewing. This is an award named to honor a dear colleague that passed away, Stan Gully.
