No minimum orderDescription
The objective of the series has always been to provide a forum in which leading contributors to an area can write about significant bodies of research in which they are involved. The operating procedure has been to invite contributions from interesting, active investigators, and then allow them essentially free rein to present their perspectives on important research problems. The result of such invitations over the past two decades has been collections of papers which consist of thoughtful integrations providing an overview of a particular scientific problem. The series has an excellent tradition of high quality papers and is widely read by researchers in cognitive and experimental psychology.
Readership
Cognitive Scientists with an interest in learning, memory, and categorization, social scientists and social psychologists interested in sterotypes and impression formation, computer scientists interested in machine learning and computational models of information processing.
