Article Processing Charges

Article Processing Charges (APCs)

To support open access publishing and journal sustainability, Mental Health and Lifestyle Journal charges an Article Processing Charge (APC) of 3,000,000 Iranian Tomans (30,000,000 IRRs) for each accepted manuscript.

This fee covers the costs associated with:

  • Editorial and peer review management

  • Plagiarism screening

  • DOI registration

  • Typesetting and formatting

  • Online hosting and digital archiving

  • Promotion and indexing efforts

Authors will be invoiced only after their manuscript has been accepted for publication. No fees are charged at the time of submission. Fee waivers or discounts may be considered on a case-by-case basis for authors facing financial hardship, especially from low-income or lower-middle-income countries.
