Journal of the Nigerian Council of Educational Psychologists

The Journal is an annual publication. It is entirely devoted to reporting and explaining problems, characteristics and actions of individuals in educational psychology and related areas in Nigeria. It’s orientation is wholly empirical. However, very strong theoretical papers that seek to unravel problems in the area of educational psychology may be entertained. The editorial board conceives educational psychology to be all those areas within education that seek to understand, control and predict human behaviours. By this conception, such fields as educational psychology, guidance and counselling, special education, childhood education, measurement and evaluation and health education fall within the purview of this journal.
