About the journal
What is The Psychologist?
'The Psychologist is the official monthly publication of The British Psychological Society. It serves as a forum for communication, discussion and debate on a range of psychological topics. We aim to publish the same kind of information normally found in academic journals, but in a form suitable for our wide-ranging non-specialist audience: The Psychologist is read by more than 45,000 Society members, and around 1,000 non-members including many journalists.
Instructions to Authors
The Psychologist is all about diversity. Write for The Psychologist and you will be reaching a massive audience in comparison with most academic and professional outlets: and the readers will be from all corners of the discipline, as well as some journalist and non-member subscribers. It's also about diversity of format: the chances are there will be something to suit what you have to say and how you want to say it. Just contact the editor - the Psychologist team are there to advise and guide you through the process.

Here's what some past authors have had to say about writing for us:
"I've read this before, but only when I'd experienced it myself did I really believe it¡writing for The Psychologist helped me to reach people my usual publications don't reach. Several of them supplied me, spontaneously, with useful sources, information and examples of real-world applications"
Professor Miles Hewstone, University of Oxford
"Couldn't be happier with the editorial process which was highly professional, very efficient and extremely supportive and responsive"
Professor Martyn Barrett, University of Surrey
"Writing for The Psychologist was a challenge - it made me think beyond the usual student essay style and gain experience in writing for a wide audience"
Alexa Ipsas, University of Edinburgh
"Writers can fear that they have to work alone. In my experience writing for The Psychologist, the process was characterised by clear, supportive, friendly and very helpful editing, which made the whole task manageable and pleasant. The readership meant that ideas were disseminated to a very wide audience"
Professor Irvine Gersch, University of East London
