🚨NEW SUBMISSION TYPE! 🚨
Very recently, we've been asked by more and more authors about the types of articles we accept. We've mostly asked Authors to submit completed studies rooted in some finished product: some finalized analysis that contributes to the published scholarly record.

Morning, folks! Our team is off to @icahdq.bsky.social's 76th conference today and so, we'll be in #ICA26 Cape Town until June 10th.
Most of our team will be there also, so we'll be a bit slower to process manuscripts until we get back.
