Because History of Psychology publishes manuscripts submitted by psychologists, by historians, and by other scholars, authors may choose for their manuscript style the form specified either in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (6th ed.) or in The Chicago Manual of Style (14th ed., University of Chicago Press). If the latter style is chosen, reference lists should be eliminated or incorporated into endnotes.
Manuscripts will receive a masked review. Please include with the manuscript a cover sheet, which shows the title of the manuscript, the authors' names and institutional affiliations, and the date the manuscript is submitted.
The first page of the manuscript should omit the authors' names, and affiliations but should include the title of the manuscript and the submission date. Footnotes containing information pertaining to the authors' identity or affiliations should be on separate pages.
Every effort should be made to see that the manuscript itself contains no clues to the authors' identity.
History of Psychology publishes essay reviews of thematically related sets of books and other media addressing issues important to an understanding of psychology's past.
Examples include
- an assessment of implications for the understanding of experimental work in psychology of recent studies of other scientists' laboratory practice
- a comparative analysis of two or three new biographies of a particular psychologist
- a review of recent films and videotapes on significant psychological theorists.
Each submitted essay review should be written with the journal's readership in mind and will undergo the same peer-review procedures as all other articles submitted to the journal.
Potential authors of such essay reviews should discuss their ideas with the editor before beginning to write them.
The journal will inform the institutions of authors of all accepted reviews of the parity of such essay reviews with the other articles published in History of Psychology.
The journal will not publish reviews of single books except in highly unusual circumstances.
For further information, and to discuss possible topics for essay reviews, please contact the
History of Psychology Editor.
