《国际多语言研究杂志》(IJM)的宗旨是促进、呈现和传播多语言习得和多语言研究的心理语言学、社会语言学和教育方面的研究。该杂志是跨学科的，旨在通过发展对习得、处理和使用两种以上语言的具体特征的理解，超越双语和第二语言习得。
The aim of the International Journal of Multilingualism (IJM) is to foster, present and spread research focused on psycholinguistic, sociolinguistic and educational aspects of multilingual acquisition and multilingualism. The journal is interdisciplinary and seeks to go beyond bilingualism and second language acquisition by developing the understanding of the specific characteristics of acquiring, processing and using more than two languages.
