About the journal
|
"This significant journal is one of the most prominent places where ideas in social psychology and cognitive psychology are brought together in truly creative ways."
-Elizabeth Loftus, PhD
"Over many years Social Cognition has provided a compelling complement to other leading journals in social and personality psychology. Known for publishing provocative and innovative contributions that both advance the field and uphold a high standard of empirical rigor, Social Cognition plays an invaluable role in our science."
-Susan M. Andersen, PhD
An excellent resource for researchers as well as students, Social Cognition features reports on empirical research, self-perception, self-concept, social neuroscience, person-memory integration, social schemata, the development of social cognition, and the role of affect in memory and perception. Three broad concerns define the scope of the journal:
*The processes underlying the perception, memory, and judgment of social stimuli
*The effects of social, cultural, and affective factors on the processing of information
*The behavioral and interpersonal consequences of cognitive processes.
Special topics have included Neurobiology, Self-Defense, and Autobiographical Memory.

MISSION STATEMENT
SOCIAL COGNITION seeks to advance understanding of the role of cognitive processes in social psychology and behavior. The journal emphasizes three broad concerns: the processes underlying the perception, judgment, and memory of social stimuli; the effects of social and affective factors on the processing of information; and the behavioral and interpersonal consequences of cognitive processes. Within these broad concerns, the journal does not specify appropriate topics for publication. Rather, the journal seeks to publish significant work from any domain that is relevant to the themes described above. Thus, research on intrapersonal, interpersonal, intragroup, and intergroup processes all are welcome at the journal. Moreover, the journal seeks research conducted with a broad range of methodologies, including, but not limited to, behavioral, psychophysiological, and neuroscientific approaches. It is anticipated that most published manuscripts will report original empirical research. However, other types of papers, such as theoretical analyses, literature reviews (see below), and methodological comments, also are welcome if they further an understanding of the cognitive processes underlying social psychology and behavior.
INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS
SOCIAL COGNITION will only consider manuscripts that fit the mission statement, as
described above. Moreover, this work must not have been published in whole or in
substantial part elsewhere, and must not currently be under review for any other
publication outlet. All research must have been conducted in accordance with the ethical
guidelines of the American Psychological Association.
Manuscripts must be written in English, and should be submitted to
socialcognition@ucdavis.edu. PDF format is preferred, but MS Word also is acceptable.
Manuscripts may be submitted as Articles, Reports, or Reviews. Articles have no specific
length limitation. Reports and Reviews may be no longer than 4000 words of text,
including footnotes, but excluding the abstract, references, tables, and figures. For
manuscripts submitted as Reports or Reviews, the word count, as indicated by any
standard word processor, should be listed on the title page. Papers submitted as Reviews
should serve as brief updates on recent research on a specific topic, rather than as
comprehensive reviews of a whole literature (which may be submitted as Articles).
Authors may contact the Editor to inquire about the appropriateness of Review topics.
All manuscripts should conform to the style and format guidelines set forth in the
Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th Edition; 2001), and
should include an abstract of fewer than 150 words. The cover page should include
contact information, including an address, phone number, fax number, and e-mail
address.
A cover letter should accompany the manuscripts. This letter should confirm adherence
to the submission guidelines and discuss any special considerations relevant to the
research or review process. Manuscripts are not ordinarily given blind review unless this
is specifically requested in writing.
If a manuscript is accepted for publication, the author will be asked to provide one hard
copy of the final manuscript, one copy on computer disk, large. High-contrast glossy
prints of all photographs, laser-drawn copies of all figures and illustrations, or artwork
provided in Powerpoint or other computer programs should be delivered with the manuscript. All signed permissions from the author and publisher of all copyrighted illustrations, tables, or quotes of over 100 words must be included. (Such permissions should grant nonexclusive world rights in all languages for use in the article and in all future editions of it). The author of an accepted manuscript will also be asked to promptly review and return page proofs and copyright releases, and to notify the editor of any substantive errors in the work that are discovered after publication.
Information regarding color reproduction can be provided by the editor. Color figures
may be printed only if the authors defray the cost.
