• Description of subject matter covered:

The Review of General Psychology is interested in articles that bridge subdisciplines in psychology or that focus on topics that transcend traditional subdisciplinary boundaries. Articles that advance theory, evaluate and integrate research literatures, provide new historical analyses, or discuss new methodological developments in psychology are welcome.

Authors are encouraged to write thought provoking manuscripts from the perspective of more than one subdiscipline and to review literature that spans at least two subdisciplines. Intellectual risk-taking is encouraged. Articles reporting new empirical findings are generally not appropriate for the journal.

This is an American Psychological Association journal, a publication of APA Division 1: The Society for General Psychology

Editor: Douglas K. Candland
