Authors who cannot submit their manuscripts electronically may submit paper copies in quadruplicate but should also send a simultaneous email to the Editor that lists on one page the title of the article, the author(s), and the abstract.

In addition to addresses and phone numbers, please supply email addresses and fax numbers, if available, for potential use by the editorial office and later by the production office.

Most of the articles published in the journal are reports of substantial empirical and theoretical studies and focused reviews of topics germane to the study of animal behavior processes.

The journal also publishes Brief Communications, typically based on a single experiment that reports a significant new empirical or theoretical contribution, perhaps involving a novel technique or analytic approach. In preparing a Brief Communication, authors should use 12-point Times Roman type and 1-inch margins. Length should not exceed 400 lines of text and references (exclusive of the title page, abstract, author note, footnotes, tables, and figures). There should be no more than two tables or figures.

Masked Review Policy

Masked reviews are optional, and authors who wish masked reviews must specifically request them when submitting their manuscripts. Each copy of a manuscript to be subjected to masked review should include a separate title page with authors' names and affiliations, and these should not appear anywhere else on the manuscript. Footnotes that identify the authors should be typed on a separate page. It is the authors' responsibility to see that the manuscript itself contains no clues to their identities.

Related Journals of Experimental Psychology

For the other JEP journals, authors should submit manuscripts according to the manuscript submission guidelines for each individual journal:

• Journal of Experimental Psychology: General
• Journal of Experimental Psychology: Applied
• Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance
• Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition

When one of the editors believes a manuscript is clearly more appropriate for an alternative journal of the American Psychological Association, the editor may redirect the manuscript with the approval of the author.
