From January 2007 the Journal of Consumer Behaviour, published by Wiley, will be re-launched with a new set of Aims and Scopes. The journal is now approaching its sixth volume. Andrea Davies and James Fitchett, both at the School of Management at the University of Leicester in the UK, took over as managing editors earlier in the year. James Gentry (University of Nebraska) and Margaret Craig Lees (Auckland University of Technology) will continue in their roles as regional editors for North America and Asia-Pacific.
The revised Aims and Scopes are outlines as follows:
The Journal of Consumer Behaviour aims to promote the understanding of consumer behaviour, consumer research and consumption through the publication of double-blind peer-reviewed, top quality theoretical and empirical research. An international academic journal with a foundation in the social sciences, the JCB has a diverse and multidisciplinary outlook which seeks to showcase innovative, alternative and contested representations of consumer behaviour alongside the latest developments in established traditions of consumer research.
The editorial team would welcome submissions from researchers working in consumer research. Reviewing and publication schedules for the journal are in good shape. We aim to return reviews in four weeks and are looking at publication lead times of around six to nine months from acceptance.
Submissions can be emailed to jcb.editors@le.ac.uk. We would also welcome enquiries from researchers who might be considering the journal for a special issue.
