Review Process
We have a firm commitment to generating content that is, to the best of our ability, trustworthy and reliable. As such, our review process aims to ensure accurate, up-to-date, relevant content that is based on credible, research-based sources.
After our subject-matter expert writers have completed each article, all content is then fact-checked by industry professionals with relevant qualifications and work experience in the field of psychology. Content is also edited to ensure it is easy-to-understand for members of the public who may not have backgrounds in psychology.
