Founded in 1958, the aim of the International Journal of Market Research (IJMR) is to be the leading primary authoritative source of information about excellent practice and new thinking in research, insight and data analysis worldwide.

The IJMR provides a bridge between practitioners and academics to share, discuss and debate all aspects of research, insight and data: applications, methodologies, new technologies, technology and methodology adoption and adaption from related areas, solutions, strategic and management issues.

IJMR is SSCI-ranked and is rated by the Association of Business Schools as a 2* journal.

Readers are looking for ways to optimise and leverage research, insight and data, and trust the integrity of the IJMR to provide them with leading edge and authoritative thinking that can be practically applied in a business and societal context.

The IJMR is first and foremost a journal that publishes the best from academia and practitioners and whilst the primary audience is the professional researcher at all levels and all spheres, the IJMR also seeks to encourage a dialogue between practitioners, academics and those in the business or public sectors who rely on research, insight and data to make effective decisions, deliver impact and drive change.

The editorial team is interested in papers that are evidence based, clearly written and unambiguous; that are original and contain new and practical ideas. The style should demonstrate authority and expertise but be accessible to the wider audience. In particular, every paper must engage and stimulate readers, be relevant to their needs and ensure that the practical applications of the ideas and concepts within the papers are readily apparent.

Whatever the topic, the material published within the IJMR is written by experts in their field and all submissions are reviewed prior to publication by their peers to ensure that high standards and integrity are maintained.

In summary, the IJMR is the place to find new thinking in research, insight and data. The content is rigorously vetted, stimulating and essential reading.

This journal is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).

The IJMR is first and foremost an applied journal that seeks to encourage a dialogue between practitioners, academics, and those in the business or public sectors who rely on research and insight to make effective decisions, deliver impact and drive change. IJMR publishes theoretical and empirical papers from both established and emerging scholars, from a wide range of methodological backgrounds.
 
 
 
IJMR seeks to achieve impact through the relevance of the work it publishes. Papers must address a problem of relevance to stakeholders and provide actionable insights for practice. Whilst broad based, IJMR typically publishes papers that either make a methodological contribution or are novel examples of applied consumer research.
 
 
 
IJMR is SSCI-ranked, rated as an ‘A’ quality journal by the ABDC, and as an ‘Internationally Recognised’ (2*) journal by the Chartered Association of Business Schools.
