  • SPECIAL ISSUE PROCEDURE

    Current Psychology welcomes special issues. The Editor-in-Chief may appoint Guest Editors for a certain topic, or potential Guest Editors may propose special issue topics to the Editor-in-Chief.

    All special issue proposals must include the name and details of the guest editors, a detailed explanation of the topic, and proposed schedule. Each SI proposal will be peer reviewed before proceeding. Editor-in-Chief has discretion to accept or reject a special issue proposal.

    The Guest Editor(s) will oversee the peer review process for each submission to the special issue. The peer review process for special issue submissions and non-special issue submissions are identical. A minimum of two expert peer reviewers will assess each submission, and reviews will be double blind.
