Starting January 2024, Human Factors: The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, will publish twelve annual issues, up from eight, and substantially increase the length of each issue. This expansion will greatly reduce the time to publication and allow the journal to increase dissemination of research articles. The long lead time between when an article is posted online until it is published exceeds two years. This has been a concern for authors, limits public access, and prevents wide dissemination of peer-reviewed research to the scientific community at large. 


Article Submission Policies

Only papers that have been not published elsewhere in the open literature—whether in print, electronic, or other medium—in the same form, in any language, may be submitted. Suitably revised papers printed in the proceedings of certain technical meetings may be submitted for consideration, including HFES Annual Meeting papers.  Visit this page for more information.
