Visual Cognition

期刊简介：Visual Cognition publishes new empirical and theoretical work that advances our understanding of human visual cognition. The journal is devoted to research at the interface of visual perception and cognition, and studies may address any aspect of visual cognition such as object, face, and scene perception; visual attention; visual memory and visual imagery; visual word recognition and reading; eye movement control and vision for action; social vision, and visual development. Besides behavioral methods with healthy human adults, the journal also welcomes reports based on alternative populations or methods such as neuroimaging (e.g., fMRI, ERP, MEG) or computational/mathematical modeling. Visual Cognition welcomes the following types of contribution: Full Research articles typically involve multiple experiments and a relatively in-depth discussion of the theoretical implications of the work. There are no length restrictions though authors should strive for brevity. Review articles provide a critical review of a topic area in a way that makes a substantial theoretical contribution. There are no length restrictions. Brief articles report new and unexpected empirical findings of broad interest and will be favoured for novelty of approach, method, and theoretical impact. Brief Articles are limited to 3000 words including abstract, notes, captions, and appendices, but excluding bibliography, which should not exceed 30 references. Figures and tables should be used sparingly. A word count should be included on the title page. Opinion papers these are intended as brief to medium length opinion article that make the case for a particular way to advance the research with regard to an important topic in the field of visual cognition. Submissions should demonstrate a thorough understanding of the current state of the field and make a clear case for how we can move forward in meaningful ways. It is essential that the views expressed should be based on an objective view of the field, rather than serve to advance an existing agenda. The goal is to provide an outlet for authors to make a call to action, provoking thoughtful discussion and exciting new research. Submissions will be either by invitation or via a pre-submission discussion with the Chief Editors. Submissions will be subject to peer review, with an emphasis on evaluating the importance of the issue being raised by the author and the extent to which a clear path for future research is presented. Peer Review: All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single anonymized and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts . Disclaimer

【译文】《视觉认知》发表了新的实证和理论著作，增进了我们对人类视觉认知的理解。该杂志致力于视觉感知和认知界面的研究，研究可能涉及视觉认知的任何方面，如物体、面部和场景感知；视觉注意力；视觉记忆和视觉意象；视觉文字识别和阅读；眼球运动控制和行动视觉；社会视力和视觉发育。除了针对健康成年人的行为方法外，该杂志还欢迎基于替代人群或方法的报告，例如神经影像学（例如功能磁共振成像、ERP、MEG）或计算/数学模型。视觉认知欢迎以下类型的贡献：完整的研究文章通常涉及多个实验以及对工作理论含义的相对深入的讨论。尽管作者应力求简洁，但没有长度限制。评论文章以做出重大理论贡献的方式对某个主题领域进行批判性评论。没有长度限制。简短的文章报告了引起广泛关注的新的、意想不到的实证结果，并将因方法、方法和理论影响的新颖性而受到青睐。简短文章的字数限制为 3000 字，包括摘要、注释、标题和附录，但不包括参考书目，参考书目不得超过 30 篇参考文献。应谨慎使用图表。标题页上应包含字数统计。这些意见论文旨在作为简短到中等长度的意见文章，提出以特定方式推进视觉认知领域重要主题研究的案例。提交的内容应表现出对该领域当前状况的透彻理解，并明确说明我们如何以有意义的方式向前发展。至关重要的是，所表达的观点应基于对该领域的客观看法，而不是用于推进现有议程。其目标是为作者提供一个呼吁采取行动的渠道，引发深思熟虑的讨论和令人兴奋的新研究。提交将通过邀请或通过与主编辑的提交前讨论进行。提交的内容将接受同行评审，重点是评估作者提出的问题的重要性以及为未来研究提出清晰路径的程度。同行评审：所有提交的稿件均需经过编辑的初步评估，如果认为适合进一步考虑，则由独立、匿名的专家审稿人进行同行评审。所有同行评审都是单一匿名的，并且通过 ScholarOne Manuscripts 在线提交。免责声明
