The Journal of Transpersonal Psychology: An Orientation
As a major orientation in psychology, a transpersonal perspective connects contemporary
educational, scientific, and clinical methods with personal, social, and spiritual
understanding. It is concerned with full human awareness, the integration of psychological
and spiritual experience, and the transcendence of self.
Since its founding the Journal has published sixty issues, including over three
hundred articles by more than three hundred fifty authors. Articles are peer-reviewed.
Two issues are published per year. The subscription is "rolling," meaning
that we'll send two annual issues beginning upon receipt of payment and NOT with
the beginning of the Volume series. Agencies can receive 15% discounts for new orders
& 10% discounts for renewals.
The Journal is Abstracted and/or Indexed in: Psychology Abstracts, International
Bibliography of Periodical Literature, International Bibliography of Book Reviews,
Mental Health Abstracts, Psychological Reader's Guide, Current Contents / Social
& Behavioral Sciences, Social Sciences Citation Index, Contenta Relgionum

Historical Note
Transpersonal psychology was first announced and defined with the publication of
The Journal of Transpersonal Psychology, in 1969. Guided by the work of psychologists
Abraham Maslow, Anthony Sutich and colleagues, this new field was founded on a commitment
to open-ended inquiry, experiential and empirical validation, and a values-oriented
approach to human experience.
In 1972 the Association for Transpersonal Psychology was established to encourage
individual and group learning, cooperation among disciplines, research in theory
and application, and the dissemination of information about the field.
Today, the Journal and the Association bring these approaches and purposes to thousands
of interested individuals. As established non-profit services, both JTP and ATP
continue to extend the transpersonal perspective world-wide.
