Journal of Experimental Social Psychology
The Journal of Experimental Social Psychology (JESP) aims to publish articles that extend or create conceptual advances in social psychology. As the title of the journal indicates, we are focused on publishing primary reports of research in social psychology that use experimental or quasi-experimental methods, although not every study in an article needs to be experimental. We also would like to encourage submissions explaining methodological or statistical considerations that are relevant to the kind of research published here, and that are usable by the typical person who carries out and evaluates social psychology research. Finally, we encourage authors to submit reports of replication studies in experimental social psychology that meet the high standards at JESP (for guidance, see Brandt, IJzerman et al., 2014).Journal of Experimental Social Psychology values inclusion and diversity across research, through its various lenses, be it authorship, reviewers, or editors. We are committed to maintaining gender inclusion, whilst additionally working to ensure the journal accurately reflects the geography, race & ethnicity, and age diversity of members of the field in which it sits. This commitment is in line with Elsevier's broader ongoing inclusion & diversity efforts. Equity and inclusion in publishing is critically important for scientific excellence and innovation. The Editors believe passionately in the power of an inclusive publishing environment as it enriches us all.- ISSN: 0022-1031
Developmental Review
Developmental Review: Perspectives in Behavior and Cognition publishes authoritative, integrative, and innovative reviews and theoretical syntheses that advance understanding of human development across the lifespan. Serving researchers, educators, clinicians, and policy makers, the journal provides a leading forum for conceptual and theoretical advances in developmental psychology, welcoming contributions that address the mechanisms and processes underlying development from infancy through aging. We encourage submissions that highlight conceptual innovation, clarify or challenge current thinking, and offer new directions for research. Interdisciplinary work that bridges developmental psychology with fields such as neuroscience, cognitive science, education, health, pediatrics, psychiatry, and policy is particularly welcome. Topics of interest include conceptual and theoretical work on cognitive, social, and emotional development; language and communication development; moral and ethical development; identity and self-concept development; motivation and learning in development; developmental psychopathology; neurodevelopmental processes; aging and lifespan development; cultural and contextual influences on development; genetics and epigenetics in development; decision-making and reasoning development; educational and applied developmental science; methodological and statistical advances in developmental research; and interventions and policy implications.- ISSN: 0273-2297
Journal of Psychiatric Research
Founded in 1961 to report on the latest work in psychiatry and cognate disciplines, the Journal of Psychiatric Research is dedicated to innovative and timely studies of four important areas of research:(1) Clinical studies of all disciplines relating to psychiatric illness, as well as normal human behaviour, including biochemical, physiological, genetic, environmental, social, psychological and epidemiological factors;(2) Basic studies pertaining to psychiatry in such fields as neuropsychopharmacol... neuroendocrinology, electrophysiology, genetics, experimental psychology and epidemiology;(3) The growing application of clinical laboratory techniques in psychiatry, including imagery and spectroscopy of the brain, molecular biology and computer sciences;(4) Advances in basic and clinical research methodology, including the process of "bench-to-bedside" transfer of new research findings.The Editors-in-Chief will accept papers of high scientific caliber, if necessary after appropriate revision, and will aim for their rapid publication. In addition, the Journal will be enhanced by the inclusion of commissioned reviews, news items, book notices and letters to the Editors.- ISSN: 0022-3956
Trends in Cognitive Sciences
Essential reading for those working directly in the cognitive sciences or in related specialist areas, Trends in Cognitive Sciences provides an instant overview of current thinking for scientists, students and teachers who want to keep up with the latest developments in the cognitive sciences.
