Beginning with volume 59
(2009 subscription year), The
Psychological Record will begin publishing brief sketches on a
variety of topics of interest to the broader discipline. The purpose of such sketches will be to:
1)
Bring novice student and professional
readers up to speed
on various scholarly topics in the
discipline so that they are better prepared to benefit from some of the
articles published in the journal and
2)
Be available for use in undergraduate
and graduate seminars,
in hopes of increasing visibility and
subscriptions for the journal.
Sketches will be provided by
leading scholars in each respective area of research and conceptual work,
and will be approximately 6-8 printed pages in length. The sketch will explain the topic and
its relevance to the field, as well as summarize relevant literature and
potentially provide new directions for research and analysis.
