Aims and Scope

Aims

Jurnal Keolahragaan publishes research that advances the understanding of sport, exercise, and physical activity and its application to performance, health, and physical education. The journal serves researchers, coaches, physical education teachers, and sport practitioners, with particular attention to evidence from Southeast Asia and other emerging regions.

Scope

The journal welcomes manuscripts in the following areas:

  • Exercise physiology, sports medicine, and sports nutrition
  • Biomechanics, motor control, and performance analysis
  • Training science, coaching, and talent identification and development
  • Sport and exercise psychology
  • Physical education, physical literacy, and motor development
  • Physical activity, fitness, and health across the lifespan
  • Sport management and sport policy, where the outcome concerns sport participation or performance
  • Tests, measurement, and evaluation in sport and physical education

Article types

Original research articles, systematic reviews and meta-analyses, and review articles.

Outside the scope

Manuscripts are returned without review when sport, exercise, or physical activity is not the main focus, or when the main outcome is not related to sport, exercise, physical activity, or physical education. Examples include general educational technology studies, cultural or arts education studies, and economic, political, or legal analyses without a direct sport outcome. Manuscripts that only describe established principles or procedures, even with numerical data, are generally not accepted.
