About the Journal
The Journal of the American Academy of Audiology (JAAA) is the Academy's scholarly peer-reviewed publication, available online at no cost to Academy members as a benefit of membership. The journal disseminates original research articles, reviews, and clinical reports providing evidence-based and clinically-relevant research.
Aims and Scope
JAAA publishes articles in all areas of audiology, including audiological assessment, amplification, aural habilitation and rehabilitation, auditory electrophysiology, vestibular science, hearing science, and public health. We encourage basic science as well as translational research that has important implications for clinical audiology.
JAAA is accepting submissions for publication in 2026 with the option to publish open access to expand the reach of your research.
