About the journal
Personal Relationships, first published in 1994, is an international, interdisciplinary journal that promotes scholarship in the field of personal relationships using a wide variety of methodologies and throughout a broad range of disciplines, including psychology, sociology, communication studies, anthropology, family studies, child development, social work, and gerontology. The subject matter and approach of Personal Relationships will be of interest to researchers, teachers, and practitioners. Manuscripts examining a wide range of personal relationships, including those between romantic or intimate partners, spouses, parents and children, siblings, classmates, coworkers, neighbors, and friends are welcome. Typically published work focuses on attributes of individual partners in personal relationships (e.g., personality factors or social positions as influences on relationship outcomes) at all stages of the life course, interactive relationship processes (i.e., behavioral, affective, or cognitive), the internal structure of dyads and networks, and relationships in social contexts (e.g., families, workplaces, historical periods, cultures). In addition to original qualitative or quantitative research, theoretical or methodological contributions, integrative reviews, meta-analyses, comparative or historical studies, and critical assessments of the status of the field are welcome as submissions.
Instructions to Authors
Submissions should follow APA style guidelines (for tips and FAQs on APA style, visit www.apastyle.org). Unless otherwise requested, all submissions will be handled electronically. Send submissions by email to Rebecca Adams, at Personal_Relationships@uncg.edu, including two attachments, preferably in MS-Word format: (1) Title page and abstract, with authors' names, a short running head, contact information, and any other information (e.g., acknowledgements, credits, grant support), and (2) the complete manuscript, prepared for anonymous review (i.e., any text that identifies the authors should be deleted or rewritten). Graduate students, other new scholars to the personal relationships field, scholars from outside the world's major research-intensive, English language universities, and scholars from disciplines (e.g., sociology, anthropology) that have been underrepresented in prior issues of this journal are especially encouraged to submit.
After receiving a submission, the Editor will inform the author whether she or one of the Associate Editors will serve as action editor for the manuscript. Three scholars, at least one who is a member of the Editorial Board, will generally review each manuscript. Because the International Association for Relationship Research is committed to the mentoring and education of new scholars who are choosing to study relationship issues, a graduate student, postdoctoral fellow, or non-tenure track faculty member will often be included as a fourth reviewer. Reflecting the interdisciplinary and international foci of the journal, the Editor and Associate Editors will typically strive to have manuscripts reviewed by scholars representing at least two different disciplines and at least two different countries. Editorial decisions will generally be made within three months of receiving the manuscript.
