Journal Guide

This unique journal publishes original articles that contribute to the understanding of psychological and behavioral processes as they occur within the ecological constraints of animal-environment systems. It focuses on problems of perception, action, cognition, communication, learning, development, and evolution in all species, to the extent that those problems derive from a consideration of whole animal-environment systems, rather than animals or their environments in isolation from each other. Significant contributions may come from such diverse fields as human experimental psychology, developmental/social psychology, animal behavior, human factors, fine arts, communication, computer science, philosophy, physical education and therapy, speech and hearing, and vision research. Peer Review Policy: All review papers in this journal have undergone editorial screening and peer review. Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.

Ecology of Food and Nutrition is an international journal of food and nutrition in the broadest sense. The journal publishes peer-reviewed articles on all aspects of food and nutrition -- ecological, biological, and cultural. Ecology of Food and Nutrition strives to become a forum for disseminating scholarly information on the holistic and cross-cultural dimensions of the study of food and nutrition. It emphasizes foods and food systems not only in terms of their utilization to satisfy human nutritional needs, but also to promote and contest social and cultural identity. The content scope is thus wide -- articles may focus on the relationship between food and nutrition, food taboos and preferences, ecology and political economy of food, food marketing and transportation, food and identity, agriculture and sustainability, ethnobotany, the evolution of human nutrition and food technology. Questions of the relationship between food/nutrition and culture are as germane to the journal as analyses of the interactions among nutrition and environment, infection, physical fitness, pregnancy, and health. Articles that use non-human primate or other animal models in nutrition-related research that have clear applications to human food behavior and/or biology are also welcome.Peer Review Policy: All research articles in the Ecology of Food and Nutrition have undergone rigorous peer review based on initial editor screening and reviewing by three anonymous referees.Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.

Devoted to theoretical and empirical analysis of innovation and new technology, this peer-reviewed journal acts as a bridge between the contributions of economic theory and empirical economics in this field. This bridge is built in two ways. First, by encouraging empirical research (including case studies, econometric work and historical research), evaluating existing economic theory, and suggesting appropriate directions for future effort in theoretical work. Second, by exploring ways of making existing areas of theory testable, and ways of using theoretical insights to inform data collection and other empirical research.The journal welcomes contributions across a wide range of issues concerned with innovation, including: innovation in product markets, process innovation, patenting, diffusion, innovation and technology policy, international competitiveness, standardization and network externalities, innovation and growth, technology transfer, innovation and market structure, innovation and the environment, and across a broad range of economic activity not just in high technology' areas. The journal also welcomes papers on research methods and data sources which contribute to the advancement of theoretical and empirical analysis.Peer Review Policy:All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by at least two anonymous referees.

Accredited by the South African Department of Higher Education and Training for university research purposesEcquid Novi: African Journalism Studies subscribes to the Code of Best Practice for Peer Reviewed Scholarly Journals of the Academy of Science of South Africa.Affiliated with:the Journalism Research and Education Section of the International Association for Media and Communication Research (IAMCR)the Journalism Studies Division of the International Communication Association (ICA)The African Council for Communication Education (ACCE)The South African Communication Association (Sacomm)Ecquid Novi: African Journalism Studies (ENAJS) is the premier international peer-reviewed journal for the critical analysis of journalism scholarship, education and practice in all its facets in Africa. The purpose of the journal is to foster a better understanding of journalism, media studies, and mass communication as research areas in the comparative context of Africa and the Global South, and to build links between these academic fields and the media professions. The journal's focus is on Africa, but its academic interest and scope is transnational.Articles dealing with the intersections between journalism, politics, culture and society in Africa are especially invited. Areas of focus may include, but are not limited to: theories of news and news representation; journalism education and research; journalism and globalization; development journalism and social change; journalism ethics; constructions of gender, 'race' and ethnicity in the news; journalism and new media; journalism and regulation; journalism and politics; and the relationship between journalism, culture and society. Comparative studies of journalism in other regions of the South that have an explicit bearing on African journalism will also be considered. Although its focus is on journalism studies, the journal's comparative and interdisciplinary approach is informed by the related fields of cultural and media studies, communication studies, African studies, politics, and sociology. The journal is therefore also likely to be of interest to scholars working in these fields.Research approachEcquid Novi: African Journalism Studies publishes articles from all theoretical perspectives and research approaches. However, there is a trend towards publishing more critical and analytical articles, especially when these approaches are informed by comparative perspectives on cultural, political or socio-economic issues related to journalism.Peer Review Policy Research articles in Ecquid Novi: African Journalism Studies are subjected to rigorous editorial and double blind external peer review.

Education 3-13 - International Journal of Primary, Elementary and Early Years Education is the major international publication of the Association for the Study of Primary Education (ASPE). The defining feature of the journal is that it aims to publish refereed articles representing the highest quality research and analysing practice relating to children between the ages of 3-13, both in the UK and internationally. It should be noted, however, that whilst the submission of items relating to pre-school and the transfer to secondary education are encouraged, the central focus of the journal is on primary education and articles addressing that phase are especially welcomed. Education 3-13 will be of interest to academics, students, teachers and advisers who seek perspectives on early years, primary and middle schooling. The Journal seeks to provide an avenue for the publication of research that will help to develop policy and practice in primary education and will also assist practitioners by providing helpful and stimulating ways of viewing what they do, or might do. The Journal welcomes submissions on all aspects of primary education in the form of articles that report original research, analyse practice, discuss local and national policy and initiatives, offer a comparative perspective on research and policy and report on major research projects. Illustrations, tables, figures, photos and examples of children's work are welcomed.Membership of ASPE includes a subscription to Education 3-13 -International Journal of Primary, Elementary and Early Years Education.

Educational Action Research is a fully refereed international journal concerned with exploring the dialogue between research and practice in educational settings. The considerable increase in interest in action research in recent years has been accompanied by the development of a number of different approaches: for example, to promote reflective practice; professional development; empowerment; understanding of tacit professional knowledge; curriculum development; individual, institutional and community change; and development of democratic management and administration. Proponents of all these share the common aim of ending the dislocation of research from practice, an aim which links them with those involved in participatory research and action inquiry. This journal publishes accounts of a range of action research and related studies, in education and across the professions, with the aim of making their outcomes widely available and exemplifying the variety of possible styles of reporting. It aims to establish and maintain a review of the literature of action research. It also provides a forum for dialogue on the methodological and epistemological issues, enabling different approaches to be subjected to critical reflection and analysis.The impetus for Educational Action Research came from CARN, the Collaborative Action Research Network, and since its foundation in 1992, EAR has been important in extending and strengthening this international network.Editorial correspondence, including manuscripts for submission (in three copies), together with an electronic copy of the article in MS Word format, should be sent to Christopher Day, Co-Editor, Educational Action Research, School of Education, University of Nottingham, Jubilee Campus, Wollaton Road, Nottingham NG8 1BB, United Kingdom.Peer Review Policy:All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by at least two anonymous referees, normally from two different countries in line with the journal's international status.Disclaimer for Scientific, Technical and Social Science publications:Taylor & Francis and Collaborative Action Research Network make every effort to ensure the accuracy of all the information (the 8220;Content8221;) contained in its publications.
