Psychological Bulletin® publishes syntheses of research in scientific psychology. Research syntheses seek to summarize past research by drawing overall conclusions from many separate investigations that address related or identical hypotheses.
A research synthesis typically presents the authors' assessments:
- of the state of knowledge concerning the relations of interest;
- of critical assessments of the strengths and weaknesses in past research; and
- of important issues that research has left unresolved, thereby directing future research so it can yield a maximum amount of new information.
