Communication Methods and Measures

期刊简介：The aims of Communication Methods and Measures are to bring developments in methodology, both qualitative and quantitative, to the attention of communication scholars, to provide an outlet for discussion and dissemination of methodological tools and approaches to researchers across the field, to comment on practices with suggestions for improvement in both research design and analysis, and to introduce new methods of measurement useful to communication scientists or improvements on existing methods. Submissions focusing on methods for improving research design and theory testing using quantitative and/or qualitative approaches are encouraged. Articles devoted to epistemological issues of relevance to communication research methodologies are also appropriate. This journal welcomes well-written manuscripts on the use of methods as well as articles illustrating the advantages of newer or less widely known methods over those traditionally used in communication. Please refer to more specific methodological standards for submissions here. Readership: Scholars and researchers in communication, sociology, psychology, political science, and other areas, who are interested in the methodologies used in the study of communication. Peer Review Policy: All articles in Communication Methods and Measures have undergone rigorous editor and peer review.
