Przegląd Statystyczny. Statistical Review (PS) is a quarterly journal published by Statistics Poland (Główny Urząd Statystyczny) in two versions: printed and electronic (ISSN 0033-2372, e-ISSN 2657-9545). The printed version of the journal is the primary version.

The articles submitted to PS are subject to double-blind peer reviewing and a thorough assessment conducted by our editors.

We have adopted the COPE principles as guidance in upholding the highest possible ethical standards in our publications.
