Aim and Scope


Psychological Review publishes articles that make important theoretical contributions to any area of scientific psychology. The journal gives preference to papers that advance theory, but systematic evaluation of alternative theories in a given domain is also considered for publication.

Papers devoted to surveys of the literature, problems of method and design, or reports of empirical findings are not appropriate.

The Review also publishes, as Theoretical Notes, commentary that contributes to progress in a given subfield of scientific psychology.
