Journal Guide

International Review of Sociology is the oldest journal in the field of sociology, founded in 1893 by Ren233; Worms. Now the property of Rome University, its direction has been entrusted to the Faculty of Statistics.This choice is a deliberate one and falls into line with the traditional orientation of the journal as well as of the Institut International de Sociologie. The latter was the world's first international academic organisation of sociology which started as an association of contributors to International Review of Sociology.Entrusting the journal to the Faculty of Statistics reinforces the view that sociology is not conceived apart from economics, history, demography, anthropology and social psychology. Rather, sociology is a science which aims to discover the links between the various areas of social activity and not just a set of empty formulas. Thus, International Review of Sociology provides a medium through which up-to-date results of interdisciplinary research can be spread across disciplines as well as across continents and cultures.Peer Review Policy:All review papers in this journal have undergone editorial screening and peer review.

International Review of Sport and Exercise Psychology is the first scholarly, peer-reviewed journal that publishes critical reviews of research literature in sport and exercise psychology. Typically, these reviews evaluate relevant conceptual and methodological issues in the field and provide a critique of the strengths and weaknesses of empirical studies that address common themes or hypotheses. The reviews present summaries of, and conclusions about, the current state of knowledge concerning topics of interest, as well as assessments of relevant unresolved issues and future trends. Reviews of research literature on theories, topics and issues that are at the interface with mainstream psychology are especially welcome.Submissions:Although research on sport and exercise psychology is expanding rapidly, it is difficult to locate comprehensive, authoritative and up-to-date literature reviews in this field. In an attempt to fill this major gap, International Review of Sport and Exercise Psychology (IRSEP) welcomes submissions containing substantial (up to 8,000 words in length) critical and integrative reviews of the research literature in sport and exercise psychology. Ideally, such scholarly papers should summarise the current state of knowledge about a given topic or question, provide critical assessments of the strengths and weaknesses of previous studies in the field, evaluate relevant conceptual and methodological issues, identify emerging trends in the literature and outline potentially fruitful avenues for further research. Manuscripts that contain reviews of research literature on theories, topics and issues at the interface with mainstream psychological science are especially appropriate for the journal. Equally welcome are integrative research reviews that propose theoretical connections between different areas of research within sport and exercise psychology and/or between topics and issues in this field and those in mainstream psychology. Papers of the highest standard are accepted over a wide range of topics (see forthcoming articles). Longer reviews may be considered at the Editor's discretion, should they be considered to make a substantial contribution to the field. Some feedback from those in the field:"As a mature discipline, sport and exercise psychology must critically review its output, not only to assess what has passed, but also to point to what is to come. International Review of Sport and Exercise Psychology is a welcome addition to the scholarly journals in our field for vigorously taking up this challenge."Professor Tony MorrisVictoria University, Australia"I look forward to reading the International Review of Sport and Exercise Psychology (IRSEP). For some time our field has been sufficiently advanced that there is a need for such a review journal 8211; one that provides concise, timely summaries of current knowledge on critical topics, reviews key methodological and conceptual issues, and supports substantive-methodological synergies. IRSEP articles should be of broad interest to students and practitioners. However, in an age of specialization, they should also appeal to leading researchers wanting to stay abreast of the latest and best research outside -- but related to -- their specific areas of interest. Inevitably, IRSEP should become one of the most widely read and cited journals in our field."Professor Herb MarshOxford University, UK"IRSEP is a new journal devoted to give an overview of the research in sport and exercise psychology. It will examine issues critical to the various topics of this growing field of research, by offering many stimulating ideas and additional knowledge. Its features are designed to address different theoretical contributions, as well as various approaches and concepts dealing with the interaction between psychology and sport performance. IRSEP will be very useful for the experts in the general field of sport psychology, such as scholars and students, as well as qualified teachers and practitioners." Dr. Aymeric GuillotUniversity Claude Bernard, Lyon8220;Given the rapidly expanding knowledge-base in the field of sport and exercise psychology, there is a clear need for a journal that provides in-depth reviews, meta-analyses, and research syntheses to provide researchers and practitioners alike with evidence-based overviews of the state of the literature. I fully welcome the arrival of IRSEP" Dr Martin HaggerUniversity of Nottingham, UK"With the information explosion occurring today, more than ever before a need exists for knowledge integration, where experts summarize and critically critique existing sport and exercise psychology literature identifying key findings and gaps in the knowledge base. Such reviews will help spur future research, advance conceptualization on key topics and help identify implications for guiding practice. IRSEP, then, will help advance sport and exercise psychology by providing a central location for critical reviews in the field" Prof Daniel GouldMichigan State University, USA"Sport and exercise psychology is in need of quality review articles to help summarize our knowledge and spur new research. IRSEP is just the ticket to fill this important void in our field" Prof Robert WeinbergMiami University, USA"IRSEP will provide critical reviews that can be hugely valuable to students, practitioners and established scholars." Professor Stuart BiddleLoughborough University, UK"8216;This new journal will allow the literature base for field of sport and exercise psychology to grow dramatically. Reviews allow scholars to quickly understand the current issues within any one topic; students, teachers and researchers will find the articles in this journal extremely helpful in their work" Prof Nanette MutrieStrathclyde University, UK"The study of the psychology of movement will be enriched by the availability of a journal dedicated to empirical reviews and interpretations of the rapidly-growing and widely-published empirical literature in sport and exercise psychology" Prof David E. ConroyThe Pennsylvania State University, USAPeer Review IntegrityAll research articles in this journal, including those in special issues, special sections or supplements, have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by at least two independent referees.DisclaimerTaylor & Francis makes every effort to ensure the accuracy of all the information (the "Content") contained in its publications.

This review journal provides the most current information on basic and translational research in immunology and related fields. In addition to invited reviews, the journal accepts for publication articles and editorials on relevant topics proposed by contributors. Each issue of International Reviews of Immunology contains both solicited and unsolicited review articles, editorials, and 'In-this-Issue' highlights. The journal also hosts reviews that position the authors' original work relative to advances in a given field, bridging the gap between annual reviews and the original research articles.This review series is relevant to all immunologists, molecular biologists, microbiologists, translational scientists, industry researchers, and physicians who work in basic and clinical immunology, inflammatory and allergic diseases, vaccines, and additional topics relevant to medical research and drug development that connect immunology to disciplines such as oncology, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic disorders.Covered in International Reviews of Immunology:1) Basic and developmental immunology (innate and adaptive immunity; inflammation; and tumor and microbial immunology);2) Clinical research (mechanisms of disease in man pertaining to infectious diseases, autoimmunity, allergy, oncology / immunology); and3) Translational research (relevant to biomarkers, diagnostics, vaccines, and drug development).The editors' intent is that this journal provide the most recent and relevant information, hence the submissions are being reviewed by members of the editorial team and / or experts in the field; yet the turnaround time is short, in order to insure that the reviews contain the latest data. An international board of editors makes sure that the material presented is as broad as possible, both in terms of the geographic distribution of contributors and the range of interests represented.Read More: http://informahealthcare.com/page/iri/Description.
