Call for Papers

As in prior years, in 2014, the European Journal of Personality will publish a Special Issue ‘European Personality Reviews’. Up to three target articles will be accompanied by invited peer comments and rejoinders by the authors. Target articles are conceptual pieces that initiate new lines of research and theory, provide a coherent framework for existing theory and lines of research or focus on critical or controversial issues that have important consequences for personality research. We are now seeking proposals for the target articles.

To make a proposal for the 2014 ‘European Personality Reviews’ issue, submit an extended abstract of up to 1000 words. The abstract should spell out clarify the goals of the proposed target paper. The abstract should be sent to the editor of the issue (Wendy Johnson) at wendy.johnson@ed.ac.uk before the 31st March 2013. If a proposal is accepted, then the deadline for the submission of the first draft of the paper is 31st August 2013. Target articles should not exceed 14 000 words and can be considerably shorter. They are peer–reviewed.
