POWS Review

    The Psychology of Women Section Review provides a forum for discussion of issues and debates around all aspects of the psychology of women in research, teaching and professional practice. It aims to promote and support academic research and debate on issues related to the development of theory and practice concerning gender and other social divisions.

POWS Review encourages submissions from individuals at all stages of their career, including undergraduate and postgraduate students. It promotes a positive reviewing process.

POWS Review publishes:
  • theoretical and empirical papers;
  • reviews of relevant books and research;
  • special issues and features; and
  • short papers, commentaries, interviews and other non-traditional submissions in its 'Agora' section.
