AIMS AND SCOPE The Journal of Income Distribution (JID) aims to facilitate communication and discussion on research in the field of social economics and particularly in the sphere of the distribution of income and wealth. Its intention is to provide an international forum for the dissemination of the results of scholarly work in this field.We are living in a strange world. We see wonderful new technologies capable of providing plenty amidst poverty and destitution. We have developed marvellous media for information exchange on a global basis, and yet we find a world steeped in ignorance. We abide in an economic system which allows individuals to find their places in society on the basis of competitive ability but provides little if any means to protect the environment and society as a whole from collective hazards and inequity.There is a profusion of scholarly economic research dealing with these issues but few theoretically truly pluralistic social scientific journals. For this reason the Editors and the International Centre for Social Economics have sought to provide economists of every school of thought, as well as historians and sociologists, with a forum to publish their scientific work on the relationships between economic growth and income distribution.
The Official Journal of the European Association of Labour EconomistsLabour Economics is devoted to publishing international research on empirical, theoretical and econometric topics that are of particular interest to labour economists. In particular, Labour Economics gives due recognition to solid empirical work with a strong economic interpretation. From time to time Labour Economics publishes review articles and articles on comparative labour market policies. Special issues and special sections of Labour Economics are available for the publication of collections of high quality topical papers or conference papers.Send us your past reportsTo improve the speed and quality of decisions, Labour Economics encourages authors to provide information relating to prior submission of the paper at other journals. Please include the editor's letter and referee reports accompanied by a response letter. Labour Economics reserves the right to use its own referees and provide these referees with copies of this correspondence.Data PolicyIt is the policy of Labour Economics to publish papers only if the program codes and the data used in the analysis are clearly and precisely documented and are readily available to any researcher for purposes of replication. Authors of accepted papers, in particular those that contain empirical work, simulations, experimental work, or numerical computations, must provide to the Journal, prior to publication, the data, programs, and other details of the computations sufficient to permit replication. These will be posted on the Labour Economics site.

The program codes, however, must be made available.Guidance on how to submit your data is provided in the relevant paragraphs below.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

The Journal of Aging Research & Lifestyle (JARLife) is an e-only gold open access peer-reviewed journal committed to publishing high-quality research on all areas related to lifestyle and aging.
The Journal has five initial sections that aim to cover the broad spectrum of lifestyle research during aging:
Physical activity, exercise and aging;Nutrition and aging;
Cognitive stimulation and aging;
Geroscience and lifestyle;
Digital aspects, lifestyle and aging.
Research on other lifestyle topics not covered in the above mentioned sections are also welcome.
Original investigations using all types of study designs, from observational investigations to interventions, but also qualitative studies, are accepted, as well as other types of articles, such as Reviews, Meta-Analyses, Comments/Perspectives, Letters-to-the-Editor, Methodological papers and Research Protocols.
High priority is given to studies investigating the interactions of multiple health behaviors during aging, in particular, clinical trials of multidomain lifestyle interventions (when two or more lifestyle interventions are combined), as well as observational longitudinal studies that have assessed several lifestyle behaviors over time. Reports using a life-course perspective are also welcome.
Although our main focus regards research in humans, cutting-edge animal studies may be considered.
The Journal of Aging Research & Lifestyle is indexed in PubMed Central.
