[DIV28M] Call for papers for Special Issue of Experimental and Clinical Psychopharmacology

Experimental and Clinical Psychopharmacology will publish a Special Issue focused on Psychopharmacology of Attention: The Impact of Drugs in an Age of Increased Distractions in October 2013.  The goal of this special issue is to highlight progress made during the past 15 years in understanding how licit and illicit drugs impact attention within the context of prevailing contemporary distractions. Topics such as distracted driving, social networking, animal and human models of multitasking, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder are just a few of the areas of relevance to this special issue.

Please contact the Guest Editor, Dr. Anthony Liguori, or the Editor, Dr. Suzette Evans, directly (see below) with your topic, a draft title and a draft abstract before submitting your manuscript.  These will also us to create a dynamic and diverse issue on these topics.  Manuscripts should be submitted as usual through the APA Online Submission Portal, and the cover letter should indicate that the authors wish the manuscript to be considered for publication in the Special Issue on Psychopharmacology of Attention. While we cannot guarantee that your submission will be accepted for inclusion in the final published special section, we hope that you will consider submitting a manuscript for this Special Issue.
