Journal History
Jurnal Penelitian dan Evaluasi Pendidikan was originally titled Jurnal Penelitian dan Evaluasi and published by the Graduate School of Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta (formerly the Program Pascasarjana Institut Keguruan dan Ilmu Pendidikan Yogyakarta). The first issue of the journal was released in 1998, bearing the ISSN 1410-4725 (print).
In 2004, the journal entered into a collaboration with the Indonesian Association of Educational Evaluation (Himpunan Evaluasi Pendidikan Indonesia, HEPI), which led to a change in its title to Jurnal Penelitian dan Evaluasi Pendidikan. This partnership was formalized in 2018 through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) No. 5835b/UN34.17/DN/2018.
Due to a discrepancy between the registered title of the journal under ISSN 1410-4725 (print) and the title in active use, the Lembaga Ilmu Pengetahuan Indonesia (LIPI)–the institution responsible for ISSN registration– recommended that the publisher cease using the ISSN 1410-4725 (print) and apply for a new ISSN under the journal’s official title, Jurnal Penelitian dan Evaluasi Pendidikan. As a result, the final issue published with ISSN 1410-4725 (print) was Vol. 22, No. 1, 2018 (June). In the subsequent issue, Vol. 22, No. 2, 2018 (December), the journal adopted the ISSN 2338-6061 (online). Starting with Vol. 23, No. 1, 2019 (June), the journal began using the new ISSN 2685-7111 (print).
Content

- Testing Management: Discusses strategies, practices, and challenges in the management of testing in various educational contexts. This article may cover testing policy development, operational management, or test results analysis.
- Research Methodology Development: Presents innovations in research methodologies relevant to educational measurement, assessment, or evaluation. The article aims to introduce new approaches or improve existing research techniques.
- Meta-Analysis: Uses statistical techniques to synthesise quantitative data from multiple previous studies to identify consistent patterns, effect sizes, or relationships in educational measurement, assessment, and evaluation. The meta-analysis article should present a transparent methodology, including study inclusion and exclusion criteria and the statistical techniques used, such as effect size and heterogeneity analyses.
