The Journal of General Psychology is devoted to experimental, physiological, and comparative psychology. Preference is given to manuscripts that establish functional relationships, involve a series of integrated studies, or contribute to the development of new theoretical insights. Human and animal studies and mathematical and other theoretical investigations are appropriate. Technological reports of significance to these areas are welcome.

The Journal of General Psychology practices blind review. Therefore, the manuscript should be submitted with the author names and affiliations removed. Please include this information in the cover letter.

Submit all manuscripts and figures electronically to http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/gen. The manuscript should be submitted as a double-spaced Word file with minimal formatting and in Times or Times New Roman. Please do not use word-processing styles, forced section breaks, or automatic footnotes. Include 3–4 key words or phrases after the Abstract.

Include a submission letter with a statement that the manuscript is not under concurrent consideration elsewhere. Each manuscript is reviewed by at least three readers, a process requiring several weeks.

Manuscripts must adhere to the conventions of style and format described in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th ed., 2001). The checklist on pp. 379–382 of the manual is especially helpful in preparing manuscripts for submission. Type the author identification notes on a separate page; include a complete mailing address for reprint requests.

Please include all tables and figures in a separate document when submitting the manuscript. Electronic versions of figures as tiff or eps files or as original files in Excel, Illustrator, or PhotoShop are required for accepted manuscripts.
