Editor of Psychological Science

The American Psychological Society Publications Committee, chaired by Morton Ann Gernsbacher, invites nominations for Editor of the Society’s flagship journal, Psychological Science, to succeed the current editor, Sam Glucksberg, whose term will end in December 2003. Psychological Science explores the research, theory, and application of psychology and all related sciences as well as the role of psychology in government and public affairs. Please see the inside back cover of any recent issue of Psychological Science for more detailed information on types of articles published.

Nominees must be members of APS and should be prepared to begin receiving manuscripts in January 2003 for publication in the January 2004 issue. Criteria to be considered in selecting the editor will include:

  • Comprehensive knowledge and broad perspective of the field
  • Understanding and appreciation of the many subdisciplines within the field
  • Professional accomplishment and identity within psychological science, and demonstrated research, writing, reviewing, and editing skills
  • Freedom to devote time to editorial duties

To nominate candidates, please provide a statement in support of the nominee. Supporting material may also be sent, including curricula vitae and brief statements by nominees of their ideas on future directions for the Journal.
