Scope
This specialty section accepts articles across the spectrum of personality and social psychology research. Papers on the traditional subject matter of these sub-disciplines are welcome. Thus, submissions on personality and individual differences may address topics including:
- Psychometric models
- The genetics and neuroscience of personality
- Emotional expressions of personality
- Relationships between personality, cognition and self-regulation
- Personality development across the lifespan
- Applications of personality assessment
Likewise, submissions in the social psychology field may address areas such as the following:
- Attitudes and persuasion
- Social cognition
- Personal relationships
- Intergroup relations
- Prejudice
- Social development
- Cultural factors
These are example topics, not an exhaustive list. Contributions that bridge personality and social psychology or that adopt integrative, multidisciplinary perspectives are especially welcome. Submissions may include several different article types including, but not limited to; empirical reports, review articles, methodological contributions, and applied studies.
All submissions should make a strong contribution to basic or applied science. Empirical studies should demonstrate methodological and statistical rigor. Exploratory studies can be considered only if they have well-justified implications for future research. The section favors the publication of research using multiple methods and diverse samples. In particular, given the known limitations of self-report measures, authors are encouraged to complement subjective scales with objective behavioral or physiological measures
