Call for Papers
“Implicit Attitude Measures”
A Topical Issue of the Zeitschrift für Psychologie / Journal of Psychology
Guest Editors:
Melanie C. Steffens, Friedrich Schiller University, Jena, Germany
Kai J. Jonas, University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Over the last few decades, one of the most thriving research areas in psychology has been the development and application of implicit attitude measures. Semantic and affective priming measures have been refined, and this has resulted in newer measures such as response win-dow priming and the affect misattribution procedure. Also, specific versions of implicit asso-ciation tests have been suggested, most pronounced in the form of single-category measures such as the Go/No-Go association task. The focus of this topical issue of the Zeitschrift für Psychologie / Journal of Psychology on “Implicit Attitude Measures” is not limited to the measures listed but seeks to reach a broad view: In most studies, only one implicit measure is applied, and there are few systematic comparisons that point to fit and limits of these different tools. The aim of the topical issue is to bring together a set of papers that fill this gap. We are looking for original empirical articles that advance knowledge concerning one or several of these measures, as well as review-type articles that focus on the interpretation of a larger number of studies concerning the measures’ weaknesses and virtues, preferably in the form of meta-analyses.
The topical issue invites submissions of empirical and theoretical papers dedicated to implicit attitude measures. We invite scholars to submit contributions electronically to:
Melanie Steffens (melanie.steffens@uni-jena.de).
For additional information, please contact:
Melanie Steffens (Melanie.steffens@uni-jena.de) or
Kai J. Jonas (K.J.Jonas@uva.nl)
There is a two-stage submissions process. Initially, authors are requested to submit only ab-stracts of their proposed papers. Authors requested to submit full papers should then do so. All papers will undergo full peer review.
Deadline for submission of abstracts is February 28, 2009.
Deadline for submission of full papers is May 30, 2009.
The journal seeks to maintain a short turnaround time, with the final version of the accepted papers being due by August 15, 2009. The topical issue will be published as issue 1 (2010).
The Zeitschrift für Psychologie / Journal of Psychology was founded in 1890 and is the sec-ond oldest psychology journal in the world. One of the founding editors was Herrmann Ebbinghaus.
