About the journal
Psychophysiology
This prestigious international journal plays a key role in advancing psychophysiological science and human neuroscience, covering research on the interrelationships between the physiological and psychological aspects of brain and behavior. A premier journal in its field, Psychophysiology reports on new theoretical, empirical and methodological advances in: psychology and psychiatry, cognitive science, cognitive and affective neuroscience, social science, health science and behavioral medicine, and biomedical engineering. The journal publishes theoretical papers, evaluative reviews of literature, empirical papers, methodological articles, meeting announcements, and fellowship opportunities.

Instructions to Authors
Psychophysiology publishes original, full-length articles in any area of psychophysiological research: theoretical papers, experimental studies, evaluative reviews of literature, and methodological developments (e.g., experimental procedures, statistical analysis, instrumentation, and computer techniques). Archival documents of the Society for Psychophysiological Research are also published in the journal. Order of publication generally reflects acceptance date. Book reviews are occasionally solicited. Letters to the Editor are not accepted.
ORIGINALITY AND COPYRIGHT.
To be considered for publication in Psychophysiology, a manuscript cannot have been published previously, nor can it be under review for publication elsewhere. Papers with multiple authors are reviewed with the assumption that all authors have approved the submitted manuscript and concur with its submission to Psychophysiology. A Copyright Transfer Agreement, with certain specified rights reserved by the author, must be signed and returned to the Editor by the corresponding author of an accepted manuscript before publication. This is necessary for the wide distribution of research findings and the protection of both the author and the publisher under copyright law.
MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSION AND REVIEW.
All editorial procedures will be conducted electronically. Manuscripts may be submitted electronically by email or by sending a disk or CD in the regular mail. For all submissions, the author should indicate in a cover letter whether the manuscript is submitted for consideration as regular, full-length article or Brief Report and should provide email address, phone number, and fax number. If data from human subjects are reported in the manuscript, the cover letter should include statement indicating that informed consent was obtained and that the rights of the subjects were protected. If infrahuman subjects were used, the statement should indicate that they were treated in accordance with appropriate institutional guidelines.
Electronic submissions are preferred in PDF format (with figures included in the PDF file), but manuscripts can also be submitted in Rich Text Format, Word, WordPerfect, or plain ASCII text format. As noted, preferably, all tables and figures will be embedded in the main document file. The author’s cover letter should be in the body of the e-mail or in separate file attachment. MAC or PC-formatted floppy disk or CD is acceptable, but e-mail is preferred. E-mail submissions should be sent to the Incoming Editor, Margaret M. Bradley, at: psychophysiology@ufl.edu.
Review process.
The editorial office will acknowledge receipt of the manuscript, and subsequently provide it with manuscript reference number and assign it for review to an editor on the Editorial Board (the Action Editor). The Action Editor will solicit referees to review each manuscript and will make the editorial decision. After initial assignment of the manuscript, correspondence from the author should be directed to the specific Action Editor. Every effort is made to provide the author with an action letter within 10 weeks of manuscript assignment. If the Action Editor requests that revisions be made to a manuscript, a maximum of 3 months will be allowed for preparation of the revision, except in unusual circumstances.
MANUSCRIPT LENGTH.
There are no restrictions on the length of manuscripts published as regular articles. However, manuscripts will rarely exceed 30 pages of text (about 12 printed pages). Shorter manuscripts are typical. To qualify for consideration as Brief Report, manuscripts should not exceed 3,500 words, including references, tables, figures, figure legends, and abstract. Each table and each figure corresponds to 250 words.
MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION AND STYLE.
Unless otherwise specified, the guideline for preparation of manuscripts is the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th edition). It may be ordered from: APA Publications, American Psychological Association, 750 First Street NE, Washington, DC 20002-4242,USA; telephone 800-374-2721 or 202-336-5500; web http://www.apa.org/books/.
Abbreviations.
The use of abbreviations, except widely used ones, is strongly discouraged, even after they have been defined in the manuscript. They should be used only if they contribute to better comprehension of the manuscript, which rarely will be the case. Metric system (SI) units should be used.
Repeated measures.
Authors submitting articles involving within-subjects repeated-measures variables should consult the Methodology section of the July 1987 issue of Psychophysiology, pp.474 ?78, for journal policy concerning repeated-measures designs. The Huynh –Feldt, Geisser ?Greenhouse, or similar correction should be undertaken for univariate repeated-measures ANOVA tests involving more than one degree of freedom, in which case the uncorrected degrees of freedom, the corrected p value, and the epsilon value should be reported. In addition, we ask that authors explicitly mention how they deal with validity assumptions when group sizes are unequal with regard to omnibus and sub effect hypotheses (i.e., main and interaction effect tests, simple-effect tests, and multiple-comparison tests). It is recommended that, when applicable, nonpooled and/or corrected degrees of freedom statistics be used (see the article by H.I.Keselman, 1998, Psychophysiology, 35, 470 ?78).
Effect sizes.
When describing results, authors are strongly encouraged to report measures of effect size in addition to probability values.
MANUSCRIPT ELEMENTS AND ORDER.
The pages of the manuscript should be arranged as follows, per the APA Publication Manual:
First page. Title page containing title, names and institutional affiliations, and running head.
Second page. An abstract of not more than 960 characters, including statement of the problem, method, results, and conclusions of experimental and methodological articles or summary of major issues, source of observations, and conclusions of theoretical articles. The abstract is followed by up to six descriptor terms that best code the contents of the article for literature retrieval. In most data papers, the abstract should make clear not just what empirical relationship was evaluated but what the primary substantive or methodological issue was that motivated the study.
Third page. The first page of the main text, which begins with the full title and is followed by the beginning of the introductory section.
Subsequent pages. Unless there are compelling reasons for variation, subsequent pages will include Methods section, Results section, and Discussion section, with subsections as needed. Further sections are ordered as follows, with each section beginning new page: References, Author Note, Footnotes, Tables, Figure Captions, and Figures. The Author Note includes departmental affiliation, acknowledgments, and name and address for reprints. Each table and figure should be on separate page.
FIGURES.
Figures should be constructed with notations and data points of sufficient size to permit legible photo reduction to one column of two-column page. As a guide, no character should be smaller than 1 mm wide after reduction. The standard errors of the mean should be depicted whenever possible. Color figures can be accepted. The extra costs of printing these figures are charged to the corresponding author. Electronic figure files can be submitted in the following formats: TIF (e.g., Adobe Photoshop), EPS (e.g., Adobe Illustrator), Word, or Power Point. For EPS, change type to outlines or include fonts with file; for PS, embed fonts or include with file. Minimum resolutions are 300 dpi for tones and 600 ?200 dpi for line art. Use of shading should be limited.
COPY-EDITING AND PAGE PROOFS.
The publisher reserves the right to copy-edit manuscripts. The corresponding author will receive page proofs for final proofreading. These should be checked and returned within 2 days of receipt. The costs of excessive author’s alterations are chargeable to the author.
REPRINTS.
The corresponding author will receive 25 free reprints. Additional reprints must be ordered when page proofs are returned. Price lists and order forms will be sent with page proofs.
