you can find the answer in the documentation ( (info "(auctex)Fontification of macros") or https://www.gnu.org/software/auctex/manual/auctex.html#Fontification-of-macros): Highlighting of macros can be customized by adapting keyword lists which can be found in the customization group `font-latex-keywords'. Thus, you have to issue M-x customize-group RET font-latex-keywords RET and then add to the "Font Latex Match Reference Keywords" variable the new entry with "citep" (without quotes) as "keyword" field and "*[[{" (without quotes) as "format" field. If you want instead to write some Elisp, you can put this --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (font-latex-add-keywords '(("citep" "*[[{")) 'reference) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- inside the hook. Out of curiosity, do you use natbib or jurabib packages? If you have parsing enabled, you should automatically get fontification of citep macro.
