General correspondence should be directed to the
Editor.
The journal encourages authors to write comprehensive pieces, rather than submitting smaller pieces to multiple journals.
In addition to addresses and phone numbers, authors should supply e-mail addresses and fax numbers if available, for potential use by the editorial office and later by the production office.
Authors should keep a copy of the manuscript to guard against loss.
Psychology, Public Policy, and Law encourages the submission by scholars of theoretical, conceptual, and critical reviews dealing with psychology and with relevant information derived from related disciplines, law, and policy studies.
Psychology, Public Policy, and Law does not routinely serve as an outlet for primary reports of empirical research, although the journal does publish original empirical research that makes a significant contribution to public policy or the law. Such articles may be reports of a programmatic series of empirical studies or reports on the results of large-scale multijurisdictional or longitudinal research.
This journal has adopted a policy of masked review for all submissions. Each copy of the manuscript must include a separate title page with the authors' names and affiliations, and these should not appear anywhere else in the manuscript. Footnotes that identify the authors must be typed on a separate page. Authors must make every effort to see that the manuscript itself contains no clues to their identities.
Manuscripts may be prepared in accordance with either the psychological (Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 6th edition) or legal (The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation, 17th ed.) style manuals.
For manuscripts prepared according to Bluebook style, footnotes must be double-spaced and listed as endnotes after the main text (they will be typeset for publication as footnotes).
