The objective of Archive for the Psychology of Religion is to combine knowledge in the areas of Social psychology, Humanities, Psychology of religion, Epistemology and Theology. The Social psychology study presented in the journal encompasses related topics like Religiosity and Personality and also examines its connection to subjects such as Spirituality. The Psychology of religion study featured falls within the wider field of Psychoanalysis.
Social psychology, Religiosity, Psychology of religion, Epistemology and Spirituality are the main subjects of interest in the journal publications. The journal articles address concerns in Social psychology which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Judaism, Religious experience and Prayer. The most cited publications tackle research in Meaning (existential) as part of the general discipline of Epistemology, however, they also discuss concepts in Focus (linguistics) and Perspective (graphical).
The journal generally zeroes in on subjects such as Coping (psychology), Social psychology, Psychology of religion, Clinical psychology and Mental health. The journal holds forums on Coping (psychology) that merges themes from other disciplines such as Sanctification and Qualitative research. The research on Social psychology featured in Archive for the Psychology of Religion combines topics in other fields like Psychosocial, Metaphysics and Meaning (existential).
The study of Psychology of religion, which falls within the realm of Epistemology, was the main focus of the presentations. The journal held discussions to help close the divide between two different fields of study: Clinical psychology and Spirituality. The studies on Mental health discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Religiosity and Face (sociological concept).
