Society of Personality and Social Psychology places both its journals
with SAGE Publications

Los Angeles, London, New Delhi, and Singapore (December 4, 2006) - SAGE
Publications announced today it has been selected by the Society for
Personality and Social Psychology (SPSP) to publish the society's review
journal, Personality and Social Psychology Review (PSPR). For over two
decades, SAGE has published the Society's other scholarly journal,
Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, a leading forum for original
empirical papers in the discipline.

Moving from Lawrence Erlbaum and Associates, PSPR will join the SAGE
portfolio effective January 2007. Institutional subscriptions will
include Combined (Print and E-access), E-access Only, and Print Only
options. Beginning with its 11th volume, the journal will be available
electronically on the enhanced SAGE Journals Online platform starting
January 3, 2007. The journal's new homepage on SAGE Journals Online will
be http://pspr.sagepub.com. A new cover design will debut with the first
SAGE issue.

Published quarterly, Personality and Social Psychology Review is devoted
to publishing original theoretical papers and conceptual review articles
in personality and social psychology. PSPR is intended as a forum to
initiate new lines of research and theory and to also provide a coherent
framework for existing theory and programs of research. Occasionally
PSPR publishes other pieces of particular interest, such as special
topical issues, selected symposia, and invited addresses. The journal's
impact factor is 2.157, and it is ranked 5 out of 46 social psychology
journals in the 2005 Thomson Scientific Journal Citation Reports.

"We're pleased that SPSP has entrusted SAGE with both their renowned
journals. We believe having both publications with SAGE and on the same
online platform is paramount to their continued success and will
contribute to the Society's growth in the years to come," commented Dr.
Peter Binfield, SAGE Journals Editorial Director. "Both journals are a
terrific fit with our expanding list of books and journals in
psychology, and will benefit from worldwide exposure on SAGE Journals
Online."
