Kinesiology and Physiotherapy Comprehensive Journal

Aims and Scope

KPCJ is dedicated to advancing evidence-based practice across kinesiology, physiotherapy, and rehabilitation sciences — publishing high-quality research that improves clinical outcomes and human movement health worldwide.

Aims of the Journal

Kinesiology and Physiotherapy Comprehensive Journal (KPCJ) is an international, open-access, peer-reviewed journal that publishes high-quality research across multidisciplinary health sciences. The journal aims to contribute to the development of evidence-based practice in kinesiology and physiotherapy by improving the quality of research in related fields, promoting scientific exchange among clinicians, researchers, and educators, and disseminating findings that advance human movement science and rehabilitation globally.

Promote evidence-based practice in physiotherapy and kinesiology

Foster global collaboration among clinicians, researchers, and educators

Improve the quality and impact of research in rehabilitation sciences

Disseminate impactful findings that enhance clinical and athletic outcomes

Scope of the Journal

KPCJ welcomes original research articles, systematic reviews and meta-analyses, randomized controlled trials, clinical studies, and case reports covering — but not limited to — the following topics:

Kinesiology

Human movement science, motor control, motor learning, and functional movement assessment.

Physical Therapy
