Time to stop sending your manuscripts into a black hole with no timeline for publication in sight! CORE and MECD are accepting manuscripts 😎

Consider MECD if you are looking to publish on assessments, psychometric properties, and manuscripts on development, validation, or measurement theory in counseling.

Consider CORE if your manuscript bridges the gap between clinical practice and evidence-based outcomes.

Both journals are dedicated to advancing the counseling profession through rigorous research and best practices.

✨social media person’s insider info: check your formatting, mention the assumptions you checked, and review prior work from each journal to make sure you are submitting to the right one. Then, reviewer #2 has nothing on you! ✨
