ARTICLE PROCESSING CHARGES

As an open-access journal, all articles published in GAERPSY Publishing are accessible electronically from the International Journal Studies in Inclusive Education (https://pubs.ufs.ac.za/index.php/ijsie) without the need for subscription fees or other forms of payment from the readers. The GAERPSY Publishing does not charge for:
1. Article submission,
2. Editorial processing,
3. Peer review processing
In other words, upon reviewers’ evaluation and approval and the editorial board’s approval, all accepted articles after peer review are published with Article Processing Charges (APC) of $400. The APC is intended to cover the underlying costs of article processing, such as copy-editing, publishing, content depositing, and archiving processes. There are no charges for rejected articles, no submission charges, and no surcharges based on the length of an article, figures, or supplementary data. Some items (Editorials, Corrections, Addendums, Retractions, Comments, etc.) are published free of charge. The GAERPSY Publishing strongly believes that the APC should not become a barrier in the publication process. APC Discount and Waiver are offered to authors who cannot cover the APC. For inquiries regarding APC, please write to the journal editor at editor-ijsie@gaerpsy.com, who can assist you with any questions or concerns and support you.
