[CogSci] Soliciting Nominations for Editor-In-Chief of Language Development Research

[Patricia Brooks]

Dear Colleagues,

Language Development Research<https://ldr.lps.library.cmu.edu/> (LDR) is soliciting nominations, including self-nominations, for a new Editor-in-Chief. As an independent open-science journal (ISSN 2771-7976) founded in 2020, LDR publishes empirical and theoretical investigations of language development, broadly construed. Submissions are peer-reviewed, and if accepted, are published fully open-access with no publication fees.


The work of the Editor-in-Chief is supported by a team of Action Editors and a 30 member Editorial Board. The incoming Editor-in-Chief’s term is set to begin in March 2025 for a duration of up to five years (non-renewable). The deadline for nominations is July 1, 2024.


Please note, although LDR is seeking nominations for an Editor-in-Chief, joint applications for Co-Editors-in-Chief are also welcome. Letters of interest and questions regarding the position can be sent to Patricia Brooks (patricia.brooks at csi.cuny.edu<mailto:patricia.brooks at csi.cuny.edu>), Head of the LDR Editorial Board, and Danielle Matthews (danielle.matthews at sheffield.ac.uk<mailto:danielle.matthews at sheffield.ac.uk>), Member of the LDR Editorial Board and Co-Chair of the Search Committee.


LDR is committed to publishing “any empirical or theoretical paper that is relevant to the field of language development and that meets our criteria for rigour, without regard to the perceived novelty or importance of the findings.”  The Editor-In-Chief is responsible for screening submissions for relevance to the journal and compliance with Open Science policies and for assigning an Action Editor. Upon acceptance, the Editor-in-Chief is responsible for checking that the final manuscript conforms with LDR guidelines, obtaining a DOI, publishing the manuscript, and adding it to the Directory of Open Access Journals.



Please reach out if you have interest and share with your colleagues.



All best,
Patty
