Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal publishes research on psychological phenomena including emotional states, social interactions, and cognitive processes. Studies investigate factors influencing affect, such as social class and cultural values, and explore the recognition and expression of emotions, particularly in relation to adverse childhood experiences and substance use disorders. The journal also examines the impact of social cues, such as eye contact, on social mindfulness and prosocial behaviors, as well as the psychological effects of climate change beliefs and societal issues like solo dining and gig work. Research further delves into the influence of personality traits, including the Dark Triad and psychopathy, on behavior and perception, and explores the role of individual differences and environmental factors in mental health outcomes, such as anxiety, depression, and well-being.
