Journal History

Origin and History of the Journal: The Journal of Graduate Studies Valaya Alongkorn Rajabhat University has been continuously publishing academic and research articles since 2007. Currently, it is indexed in the Thai Journal Citation Index Centre (TCI) database. Its primary objectives are to disseminate research and academic articles in humanities and social sciences—covering education, humanities, business management, social sciences, and other related fields—from faculty members and students both within and outside the university, as well as interested scholars domestically and internationally. It also serves as a medium for exchanging news, information, experiences, and research findings to foster an increasingly international academic community. In 2025, Valaya Alongkorn Rajabhat University under Royal Patronage established a policy to elevate the journal’s quality to a more international standard. Consequently, the following changes were implemented:

1. Journal Name Change: The journal’s name changed “Journal of Graduate Studies Valaya Alongkorn Rajabhat University” to “Journal of Global Perspectives in Humanities and Social Sciences (J-GPHSS)”. The new title does not have a Thai version and will be officially used starting from Vol. 20 No. 3 (September – December 2026) onwards.
2. Aims & Scope of Revision: Effective from October 1, 2025, onwards.
3. Language Policy: The journal now exclusively accepts articles written in English.

Authors submitting manuscripts from this point forward will be considered for publication in Vol. 20 No. 3 (September – December 2026) and subsequent issues.
