Government Information Quarterly
An International Journal of Information Technology Management, Policies, and PracticesGovernment Information Quarterly is an international journal that examines the intersection of policy, information technology, government, and the public. In particular, GIQ focuses on how policies affect government information flows and the availability of government information; the use of technology to create and provide innovative government services; the impact of information technology on the relationship between the governed and those governing; and the increasing significance of information policies and information technology in relation to democratic practices.As the leading journal in the field, Government Information Quarterly seeks to publish high quality scholarly research, viewpoint articles and editorials that inform both researchers and practitioners regarding the relationship between policy, information technology, government, and the public. The journal seeks submissions drawn from a variety of disciplines, including but not limited to information science, public policy, public administration, political science, business, law, geography, information systems, communications, economics, sociology, computer science, and public health.Government Information Quarterly encourages submissions that focus on:• Information policies and their impact on government information flows, availability, and access • The impact of information technology on government innovation, transformation, and practice • An open, transparent, and accountable government • Data privacy, protection and security • Participatory decision-making and civic engagement and the role of information technology in promoting and/or limiting civil discourse, participation, and practice • Information flows in public spheres • Co-participation and co-production between the governed and the governing and the influence of technology and policy on the relationship between the public and government • The citizen, the state, information policy, and information technology • The development, implementation, and use of information systems and emerging technologies as platforms and delivery tools for government services and resources, as well as tools for decision and policy makingWithin this scope, Government Information Quarterly welcomes three types of submissions:1. Original research papers that combine rigour and relevance to advance the state-of-the-art and state-of-practice in the field2. Significant theoretical contributions that consolidate or advance the state-of-the-art in the field3. Significant practical contributions that convey novel and breakthrough ideas to advance the state-of-practice in the field- ISSN: 0740-624X
Brain and Cognition
Brain and Cognition is a forum for the integration of the neurosciences and cognitive sciences. B&C publishes peer-reviewed research articles, theoretical papers, case histories that address important theoretical issues, and historical articles into the interaction between cognitive function and brain processes. The focus is on rigorous studies of an empirical or theoretical nature and which make an original contribution to our knowledge about the involvement of the nervous system in cognition. Coverage includes, but is not limited to memory, learning, decision making, emotion, perception, movement, music or praxis in relationship to brain structure, function or development. Scholarly articles on environmental influences—social, physical, catastrophic—on aspects of brain and cognition are also welcome.Published articles will typically address issues relating some aspect of cognitive function to its neurological substrates with clear theoretical import, formulating new hypotheses or refuting previously established ones. Clinical papers are welcome if they raise issues of theoretical importance or concern and shed light on the interaction between brain function and cognitive function. We welcome review articles that clearly contribute a new perspective or integration, beyond summarizing the literature in the field; authors of review articles should make explicit where the contribution lies. We also welcome proposals for special issues on aspects of the relation between cognition and the structure and function of the nervous system. Such proposals can be made directly to the Editor-in-Chief from individuals interested in being guest editors for such collections.- ISSN: 0278-2626
Cognition
International Journal of Cognitive ScienceCognition is an international journal that publishes theoretical and experimental papers on the study of the mind. It covers a wide variety of subjects concerning all the different aspects of cognition, ranging from experimental studies of behavior and of the brain to formal analysis.Papers will be selected on the basis of their scientific quality, their degree of innovation and their unambiguous theoretical advance to the study of cognition. Paper's overall soundness of the argument and degree of empirical motivation, especially from converging sources, are more important than adherence to specific methodological principles. Studies that selectively focus on the cognitive and neural mechanisms that underlie problems with cognition in clinical populations or on purely methodological questions fall outside the scope of Cognition. Because Cognition enjoys a wide readership from many disciplines, authors should explicitly consider the general theoretical issues raised by their work and its relevance to other topics and methods. Materials should describe work done and methods used in a clear and explicit manner (allowing reproduction of the methods by others).- ISSN: 0010-0277
Information & Management
The International Journal of Information Systems Theories and ApplicationsInformat... & Management serves researchers in the information systems field and managers, professionals, administrators and senior executives of organizations which design, implement and manage Information Systems Applications. The major aims are:• To collect and disseminate information on new and advanced developments in the field of information systems;• To provide material for training and education in information systems;• To encourage further progress in information systems methodology and applications;• To cover the range of information system development and usage in their use of managerial policies, strategies, and activities for business, public administration, and international organizations.- ISSN: 0378-7206
