About the Journal

Vocabulary Learning and Instruction (VLI) is an open-access international journal that provides a peer-reviewed forum for original research related to vocabulary acquisition, instruction and assessment. Submissions are encouraged from researchers and practitioners in both first language and SLA contexts. The journal is published biannually online in the growing tradition of open-access peer-reviewed research.

All submissions are subject to double-blind peer review. Editors review manuscripts to ensure basic requirements are met, and that the work is of sufficient quality to merit external review. All manuscripts must be in APA format throughout (including all citations and references).
