Titles by JPPS Rating

Here is a list of AJOL’s partner journals according to their JPPS rating.

You can learn more about the unique JPPS system, a framework for assessing publishing practices and standards, at journalquality.info.

AJOL’s journals are reassessed periodically, so the list of journals in each section of this menu will change over time. Please note that the JPPS system is unique to AJOL and a handful of international JOL sites, so the various rating categories are in-house to JPPS, not universal.

Here are the available ratings:
