New Ideas in Psychology

Description:

---

There is a growing dissatisfaction with fragmentation in theoretical psychology and without doubt there is a felt need for a journal containing articles which aim to integrate these fragmented ideas and theories. Since the usual methods and perspectives have failed to achieve such integration, common sense suggests that we try new and more daring hypotheses. We place particular emphasis on the fact that informed discussion of psychological theories needs to be interdisciplinary. We anticipate that fresh ideas may come from research in the fields directly related to psychology. New Ideas in Psychology acts as a forum for theorizers striving to integrate the fragmented ideas and theories currently found in theoretical psychology. It is also anticipated that fresh ideas may come from research in fields indirectly related to psychology. New Ideas in Psychology provides a forum for theorizers. It is open to letters, comments or debate, and puts a special emphasis on seminal and controversial ideas. Empirical papers are welcome, but only as long as they focus on conceptual issues and are theoretically creative.
