oRT1: Building More Inclusive Peer-Review and Publication Practices: A Roundtable with Majority World Researchers
Scholars working in majority world contexts often experience unique challenges when publishing in leading psychological journals (Raval et al., 2024). This roundtable will create an open, collaborative space for faculty, postdoctoral researchers, and graduate students to share their experiences with the peer-review and publication process. We will invite participants to reflect on the kinds of feedback they have received from editors and reviewers, the challenges they have encountered related to the use of open science frameworks, artificial intelligence, transparency standards, methodological norms, and resource constraints, and how these factors shape their work. The session will also focus on what Majority World scholars find helpful, what they would like to see change, and what forms of support would be most meaningful. Through open dialogue and shared problem-solving, we aim to generate practical recommendations and foster collaborative efforts to promote more equitable, rigorous, and globally inclusive publication practices in psychology.
