ICOP 2025

Faculty of Psychology, Mercu Buana University, Yogyakarta, is proud to hold the 2025 International Psychology Conference (ICoP) with the theme "Redefining Mental Health in Cultural Perspectives: Navigating AI, Neuroscience and Human Potential". It takes the foundational commitment to cultural perspectives and community well-being from our previous conferences and propels it into the contemporary landscape now being reshaped by artificial intelligence and neuroscience. We now ask: How can these powerful new tools be harnessed to enhance, rather than erode, culturally-grounded well-being? How can neuroscientific discoveries validate and enrich indigenous knowledge? This conference, therefore, is not merely an examination of new trends, but a deliberate continuation of our mission to champion mental health frameworks that are both globally informed and deeply rooted in diverse human realities.

Peer Review

The reviews will be double-blind. Each submission will be examined by 2 reviewers independently. The conference submission management system is using papericop.mercubuana-yogya.ac.id.

The first step of the submission is abstract submission. The abstract will be initially screened by the reviewers by checking the quality and the relevancy with the topics and subtopics of ICoP. The author of selected abstract will be notified to submit the full paper. The reviewer team will review the submitted full paper based on the editorial policy including matters regarding to competing interest. A paper will be accepted after it has met the required criteria based on the decision of 2 reviewers.

Authors of a rejected submission will be given the opportunity to revise and resubmit after addressing the reviewers’ comments. The acceptance or rejection of a revised manuscript is final.

To reduce bias in reviewing process, the ICoP will implement double-blind review by omitting all information related to the identity of the authors and implement numbering system to identify the papers before submitted to the reviewers for review process.
