  • Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Finance

    • ISSN: 2214-6350
    The journal welcomes full-length and short letter papers in the area of behavioral finance and experimental finance. The focus is on rapid dissemination of high-impact research in these areas.Behavioral and Experimental Finance represent lenses and approaches through which we can view financial decision-making. The aim of the journal is to publish high quality research in all fields of finance, where such research is carried out with a behavioral perspective and / or is carried out via experimental methods. It is open to but not limited to papers which cover investigations of biases, the role of various neurological markers in financial decision making, national and organizational culture as it impacts financial decision making, sentiment and asset pricing, the design and implementation of experiments to investigate financial decision making and trading, methodological experiments, and natural experiments.Both empirical and theoretical papers which cast light on behavioral and experimental topics are welcomed. Papers can be either full-length or short letter (2,500 words maximum) format. In addition, a section is reserved for "Ready-to-use-softwa... tools", where programmable codes that automate experimental and behavioral tests are made available.The journal is also open to review and survey papers on any behavioral finance or experimental finance area; where such papers provide an overview and synthesis of present research. Young researchers, such as advanced graduate students, are encouraged to contact the editor to propose such survey articles and receive initial feedback on the proposal.Further welcomed are replication experimental finance studies of recently published high impact research in this area. These papers should be written as short letter papers, and will be assessed with a focus on methodological appropriateness and with a view to speedily disseminating the findings.
  • Journal of School Psychology

    • ISSN: 0022-4405
    The Journal of the Society for the Study of School Psychology (SSSP)The Journal of School Psychology (JSP) publishes original empirical articles and critical reviews of the literature on research and practices relevant to school settings across the full range of methodologies that address culture, context, and quality standards (e.g., race, ethnicity, and culture; qualitative, quantitative). JSP presents research that advances the science and practice of school psychology on intervention mechanisms and approaches; prevention and implementation; schooling effects on the development of social, cognitive, mental health, academic, and achievement outcomes; assessment; consultation; and social justice as a process and outcome. JSP emphasizes strengths-based perspectives of populations, multiple and interconnected ecologies (e.g., home, school, community) within which children learn and develop, research that actively and authentically involves school professionals, families, and community members; integration of critical theories; and author positionality in research. JSP focuses on writing that is inclusive and empowering, equity-centered, and anti-racist. Research conducted within and across countries throughout the world is welcome.The Editorial office of JSP may be contacted at: Andy Garbacz, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Department of Educational Psychology, Madison, Wisconsin, United States of American, 53706.

  • The Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance

    • ISSN: 1062-9769
    Published for the Bureau of Economic and Business Research, University of Illinois at Urbana-ChampaignThe Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance (QREF) attracts and publishes high quality manuscripts that cover topics in the areas of economics, financial economics and finance. The subject matter may be theoretical, empirical or policy related. Emphasis is placed on quality, originality, clear arguments, persuasive evidence, intelligent analysis and clear writing. At least one Special Issue is published per year. These issues have guest editors, are devoted to a single theme and the papers have well known authors. In addition we pride ourselves in being able to provide three to four article "Focus" sections in most of our issues. These "Focus" sections have a common theme, may or may not have a guest editor, and often contain papers that were presented in a session at a regional, national or international meeting. These can be published in a very timely manner. Finally, QREF is the journal of the Midwest Economic Association. The editors of QREF place special efforts into working with young authors.

  • Computers & Operations Research

    • ISSN: 0305-0548
    Computers & Operations Research is a privileged forum for state-of-the-art work exploring the theory and practice of Operations Research (OR) intertwined with advanced computational methodologies. The journal publishes high-quality innovative and impactful research articles in theories, modeling, algorithms, and applications of Operations Research.Since its first volume was printed in 1974, the journal has promoted different OR application areas that include but are not limited to Transportation, Logistics, Manufacturing, and Supply Chain Management. The journal has also triggered new trends in OR models and techniques such as Data Analytics, Decision-making under Uncertainty, and Behavioral OR. A strong focus has been put on recent advances in Statistics, Data Science, and Machine Learning.The form, content, and language of the articles should take cognizance of the breadth of applications covered by OR and of the consequent fact that many readers may not be experts in the scientific field to which the computer and operations research techniques are applied by the author. In particular, the abstract should concisely describe:1. the investigated problem(s), 2. the theoretical or methodological contribution, and 3. the insights.The journal is structured around seven major areas which, nonetheless, are not disjointed:Transport... and Supply Chains; Production and Scheduling; Decision-Making under Uncertainty and Data Analytics; Optimization—Exact Methods; Optimization—Approxi... Methods; Machine Learning and Data Science. The journal also publishes state-of-the-art surveys and best practice guides in Analytics, Operations Research, and Management Science. These articles are printed in a special section, “Surveys in Operations Research and Management Science”. Submissions can focus on theory or applications of OR/MS and can be of several types, including but not limited to: 1. Results that are considered standards by experts in the community but which have not been documented in textbooks; 2. Standard results which have been, in some way, streamlined, such as, for example, new proof techniques leading to more elegant derivations of known results; 3. New developments in methodology or new application areas ('hot topics'). A survey should be critical with respect to the existing knowledge and should focus on computational and algorithmic aspects. The journal publishes focused issues on topics of interest related to its editorial mission. Such issues typically contain between six and twelve articles. They are put together within an eighteen-month period under the responsibility of one or several guest editors. Prospective guest editors are encouraged to contact the Editor-in-chief.Full... reproducible results are core for papers accepted for publication in the journal. Hence, authors should grant full access to the data and codes underlying their work. Further information on different possibilities to accomplish this can be found at https://www.scienced... Best Paper AwardEvery year, the journal’s editors select one paper to receive the “CAOR Annual Best Paper Award”. The paper will be made free-to-view for one year, thus receiving privileged visibility. The winning and the runner-up papers will also be highlighted on the website in the “Editor’s Choice” section, staying there for one year.Further Information for authorsIt is the responsibility of the authors to ensure that the submitted manuscripts are written using proper English, that possible grammatical or spelling errors are eliminated and that the text conforms to correct scientific English. Submissions that do not satisfy these criteria may be rejected without being sent to reviewers.All full-length research papers published in the journal must demonstrate constructive algorithmic complexity and extensive numerical experiments. Numerical illustrations (examples) are not sufficient: the numerical experiments must have a scientific value of their own, particularly with comparisons to other approaches. The use of real-world data is also valued. In CAOR, (meta)Heuristics other than well-established algorithms such as evolutionary algorithms or ant colony optimization must be described in metaphor-free language. This is a way to ensure that they are immediately comparable to existing algorithms. The Harvard style is adopted in the journal for the bibliography. Authors should consider this while preparing their manuscripts, especially when preparing tables and charts involving bibliography references.The highly innovative contributions targeted by the journal prevent it from endorsing papers that present long and unsolvable formulations for variants or extensions of existing problems and then resort to a well-established approximate method to find approximate solutions. CAOR does not endorse papers emerging in the context of warfare activities planning. The authors working in that and related fields should look for specialized journals.
  • Journal of Corporate Finance

    • ISSN: 0929-1199
    The Journal of Corporate Finance aims to publish high quality, original manuscripts or shorter format papers in both theoretical and empirical corporate finance. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: financial structure, governance, product markets, payout, labor, innovation, risk management, financial contracting, and international finance. Papers at the intersection of corporate finance and macroeconomics, asset pricing, household, behavioral, fintech and blockchain, law, financial intermediation, or microstructure also are encouraged.The new Editorial Board is committed to a timely and constructive reviewing process and seeks to streamline the editorial process by implementing an active desk-rejection policy. We anticipate that a non-trivial fraction of papers will be rejected without a detailed reviewing process. The policy is intended to minimize the burden on reviewers as well as create a more efficient process for authors. Desk-rejected articles will NOT be refunded the submission fee. In the same spirit, we expect most papers to converge to a decision within two rounds.Editors and AEs will recuse themselves from handling submissions from authors at the same institution, current or recent past co-authors, former PhD students (in case the editor was the main advisor), former PhD advisors, close friendships, relatives, and papers that criticize or closely compete with an editor's work. Any direct or indirect financial interest also is considered a conflict of interest. If any editor or AE feel that there is likely to be a perception of a conflict of interest in relation to their handling of a submission, they will inform the Managing Editors. The above conflict of interest policy also will be applied to special issues and journal sponsored conference decisions.
