What are AAMs anyway?
They're the final version of a research article after peer review and acceptance, but before copyediting and publisher formatting.
While the final publishing can take some time, an AAM lets readers access your research immediately.
Citable, and archived with its own DOI.
Want to make your research available before final publication?
Once your article is accepted by one of our journals, simply download and complete the AAM (Author Accepted Manuscript) form.
Your AAM is archived in PsychArchives and appears under 'Forthcoming Articles' on the journal’s website.
