jedpsych-topic-selection
Use when deciding whether an educational-psychology project fits the Journal of Educational Psychology and which manuscript type to target. JEP wants original, primary psychological research on learning and instruction that matters for real educational settings; it does not typically publish single-instrument reliability/validity studies. Frames the question; it does not collect data.

# Topic Selection & Fit (jedpsych-topic-selection)
The Journal of Educational Psychology publishes **original, primary psychological research pertaining to
education across all ages and educational levels** (检索于 2026-06；以官网为准). The bar is a finding
that is **theoretically grounded**, **methodologically rigorous**, and **educationally consequential** —
it should change how psychologists understand learning, motivation, achievement, or instruction *and*
matter for learners in schools, classrooms, or online settings. Use this skill to pressure-test fit
before investing.
## When to trigger
- Choosing among possible projects or framings for JEP
- A reader said the work feels "atheoretical," "not educational," or "just a lab effect"
- Deciding between a single study, a multi-study package, or a meta-analysis
