This form is for authors interested in proposing a manuscript response to the call issued by APS for papers in a special collection on data presentation: https://www.psychologicalscience.org/ampps/ampps-call-for-papers-data-visualization.

Researchers across many disciplines have advanced our understanding of best practices in data visualization, and new presentation formats and styles have proliferated with the advance of open-source analysis software. Simultaneously, empirical and theoretical work on how  people perceive and interpret graphs and figures has advanced our understanding of best practices for communicating data. In keeping with AMPPS's mission of helping researchers improve their research and statistical practices, the journal invites manuscripts on data visualization. All types of manuscripts published at AMPPS may be considered as part of this call. We seek tutorials teaching readers how to create and use new data visualization techniques, general articles on best practices for data communication, and new empirical work on practices that lead to correct or incorrect interpretation of data presentations (meta-science empirical work).

Interested authors should use this form to propose a manuscript for the collection. The editors will review these proposals and will encourage submission based on fit to the call for proposals, fit with AMPPS’s overall mission of reaching a broad audience, and on the need to avoid duplication of content in the section or with other AMPPS submissions. In cases where multiple teams simultaneously propose manuscripts on the same topic, we will aim to ensure diversity among the pool of authors in the issue. We do not have a fixed limit on the number of manuscripts for this collection. All manuscript submissions will undergo our standard review process.

We encourage submission of proposals using this form by March 1, 2021, but we will continue to consider proposals for manuscripts after that, and we will continue to add articles to the collection as they are accepted.

If you have any questions about this form or about the call for proposals, please email Daniel Simons, Editor in Chief: ampps.editor@gmail.com.
