Open Access Publishing

In response to the need for some authors to publish their work as Open Access, Aerospace Medicine and Human Performance is now a “hybrid” journal. We offer Open Access publishing (see Submission Information) for a fee and also publish non-Open Access articles for no fee, other than those incurred for color figures, additional tables, etc. Authors may post their accepted manuscript in an institutional repository without paying any fees. Traditionally, all published articles are available for free online after a 1-yr embargo.

Journal Submission Statistics (2019)

  • Aerospace Medicine and Human Performance publishes approximately 10 articles per month, including Research, Reviews, Case Reports, and Short Communications.
