Call for Papers: Special Issue of the European Journal of Social Psychology
The European Journal of Social Psychology invites manuscripts for a special issue featuring empirical articles on the antecedents, processes, and consequences of warmth/communion and competence/agency in social judgment and behavior. This special issue will be edited by Amy Cuddy (Northwestern University), Andrea Abele (Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg), Charles Judd (University of Colorado), and Vincent Yzerbyt (Catholic University of Louvain at Louvain-la-Neuve).
Over half a century of research in psychology reveals that the same two dimensions underlie most judgments of traits, individuals, groups, and cultures. Although the definitions and labels may vary, the first dimension makes reference to attributes such as warmth, communion, and collectivism, and the second to attributes such as competence, agency, and individualism. The goal of this special issue is to integrate converging theory and evidence documenting the centrality of competence/agency and warmth/communion in social judgment and behavior. We will highlight empirical research on the social psychological antecedents, processes, and consequences of perceived warmth/communion and competence/agency from different perspectives and various domains of social psychology (e.g., the self, person perception and social judgment, group perception and stereotyping, culture, etc.). We will also consider research on the outcomes of warmth/communion and competence/agency judgments in related areas such as organizational behavior and health psychology.
Manuscripts will be peer-reviewed following standard journal procedures, should conform to the publication guidelines of the American Psychological Association, and should be prepared in accordance with the “Instructions for Authors” found online and in published editions of the European Journal of Social Psychology. To ensure the suitability of the manuscript for the special issue, authors are encouraged, but not required, to submit an abstract to Amy Cuddy (a-cuddy@kellogg.northwestern.edu) or Andrea Abele (abele@phil.uni-erlangen.de) prior to submitting the complete manuscript. Manuscripts must be submitted in electronic form through the online EJSP submission portal (http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/ejsp) by September 30, 2007.
