History and academic reputation
Launched in 1955, Voprosy Psikhologii (along with Psikhologicheskii zhurnal, founded in early 1970s) became the leading psychological journal of Russia in 1950s through 1990s.[4]
Yet, the second decade of 21st century demonstrated gradual, but steady decline of the journal's academic reputation and impact, and, according to the national rating of Russian scholarly publications, the Russian Science Citation Index (RSCI), Voprosy Psikhologii currently occupies the 8th place (8/98) on the list of top-rated academic journals in psychology in Russian Federation[1].
According to research published by a Russian volunteer community network working to clean Russian science of plagiarism, the Dissernet, this journal is qualified as a "Journal with considerable deviations from academic publishing standards"[5].
