Coaching Psychology International (CPI)
From 2021, CPI has been published electronically on a rolling basis (e.g. as articles become available for publication they will be uploaded on the journal web page[s]). This is the house publication of the International Society for Coaching Psychology. Members can download a PDF of volumes 1-14 of the journal. A PDF of each subsequent volume will be available for ISCP members to download by the end of each calendar year. CPI may also be available on an occasional basis in print format at in-person ISCP annual conferences, congress events and/or exhibition conference stands.
You can read the latest articles from Volume 16 of Coaching Psychology International under the CPI Volume 16 page.
CPI publishes papers on the research, theory and practice of coaching psychology and allied fields. It also includes news updates from the professional psychology bodies that have reciprocal agreements with the ISCP. Papers are reviewed by the Editors. The journal is listed in SocioWeb and The Academic Resource Index. It is abstracted in the American Psychological Association PsycEXTRA.
