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.
