Paper Prints Policy

The "COSMIC JOURNAL OF BEHAVIORAL SCIENCES" encourages authors to deposit their paper prints in a preprint repository before submitting their manuscript to the journal. Preprint repositories are open access archives where authors can deposit their manuscripts for public access before they are published in a peer-reviewed journal. Depositing a paper print in a preprint repository has a number of benefits, including:

  • It makes the author's work immediately available to the public.
  • It can help to increase the visibility and impact of the author's work.
  • It can help to attract feedback from other researchers, which can improve the quality of the manuscript.

Authors who deposit their paper prints in a preprint repository should include the following information in their manuscript submission:

  • The title of the preprint.
  • The name of the preprint repository.
  • The DOI of the preprint.

The "COSMIC JOURNAL OF BEHAVIORAL SCIENCES" will accept paper prints that have been deposited in any preprint repository. However, authors should be aware that preprint repositories are not peer-reviewed and that depositing a paper print in a preprint repository does not guarantee publication in the journal.
