Movement & Sport Sciences - Science & Motricité introduces an ‘open access option’

We are pleased to announce the introduction of an ‘open access option’ for authors publishing in Movement & Sport Sciences - Science & Motricité (MSS). MSS is a peer-reviewed, online journal published on behalf of the French Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences (ACAPS) in English and French.

To date, MSS is published as a subscription journal. However, with the growing demand for open access from both the scholarly community and research funding bodies – in particular, the French national plan for open science and Plan S – the introduction of an ‘open access option’ is a timely and welcome development.

Authors who wish to publish their work in open access, or who are required to do so, may now choose to make their paper freely available as soon as it is published online, in exchange for a fee (the ‘open access option’). The fee covers the cost of open access publication and is currently €1500 per article for MSS. We look forward to sharing the first open access articles as they are published.
