All papers published are subject to rigorous peer-review to internationally accepted standards by external reviewers and the Society’s Board of Assessors, working under the auspices of the experienced international editorial team.
Starting 2025, Rorschachiana will be published as an open access journal.

Peer Review Week: Recognition For Reviewers
Hogrefe journals collaborate with the Web of Science Reviewer Recognition Service to support reviewers and ensure they receive the recognition they deserve for their peer review contributions. The Reviewer Recognition Service enables contributors to track, verify, and showcase their work for promotion and use in funding applications. It is seamlessly integrated into each journal’s Editorial Manager system so reviewers can opt-in to have their completed reviews automatically added to the Web of Science Researcher Profile. Read more on Hogrefe’s recognition for reviewers and find out how to create a Web of Science Researcher profile here.

It's my great pleasure to share with you that Rorschachiana has been selected for inclusion in Clarivate’s Web of Science, in the Emerging Sources Citation Index.

The inclusion of Rorschachiana in the ESCI starting with the 2022 annual volume, and thus also in the Journal Citation Reports (JCR), means that we expect the journal’s first official Journal Impact Factor to be announced in 2025!
