DESCRIPTION OF THE SERIES
The field of Culture and Psychology is one of the fastest growing areas within the social sciences. Just in the last 10 years, the field has grown exponentially, as evidenced in numerous Annual Review of Psychology chapters, books, and journal articles. The field of Culture and Psychology cuts across all areas of psychology. There are many exciting developments in diverse areas such as culture and cognitive processes, culture and human development, culture and psychopathology, culture and social behavior, culture and organizational behavior, culture and neuroscience, culture and language, culture and marketing, among other topics. As a repeating Annual Series, this will be the first series to have state of the art reviews of scholars’ own research programs in the growing field of Culture and Psychology.
Our key goals for the Advances in Culture and Psychology Series are to:
• Develop an intellectual home for culture and psychology research programs
• Foster bridges and connections among cultural scholars from across the discipline
• Create a highly cited volume and a premier outlet for culture and psychology research
• Publish articles that reflect the theoretical, methodological, and epistemological diversity in the study of culture and psychology
• Enhance the collective identity of the culture and psychology field
The Advances in Culture and Psychology Series has an advisory board which includes:
• Patricia Greenfield, University of California, Los Angeles
• Yoshihisa Kashima, University of Melbourne
• Shinobu Kitayama, University of Michigan
• Mark Schaller, University of British Columbia
• Richard Shweder, University of Chicago
• Colleen Ward, Victoria University of Wellington
TARGETED MANUSCRIPTS
The series consists of contributions from internationally renowned culture scholars who represent diversity in the theory and study of culture and psychology. Scholars from across the discipline will be invited to contribute articles on a yearly basis so that the volume reflects diverse contributions across the field of Culture and Psychology. Authors are also encouraged to submit their work to be considered for publication. Targeted articles for the Advances in Culture and Psychology are mature research programs of scholars’ own programmatic work that highlights the cumulative knowledge that has been gained through one’s own particular research program (similar to the high profile Advances in Experimental Social Psychology series). We will also consider
manuscripts that describe up and coming research programs that have already shown promise on cutting-edge topics as well as manuscripts that describe new data from large scale empirical research projects. The Advances in Culture and Psychology will also showcase work from other disciplines, including Anthropology, Communication, Economics, and Sociology, among others.
