This journal publishes refereed papers covering current research in mathematics. The papers present results of original work, critical reviews of important fields, and applied areas. The journal also features special issues devoted to advances in specific areas of mathematics and proceedings of selected high quality conferences.

PSICOLOGICA was born in 1980 as an instrument for publication of articles in Methodology and Experimental Psychology. This is an open access journal, available since 1998. It is published in 1 volume per year (2 issues) by the Department of Methodology of the Behavioral Sciences of the University of Valencia (Spain) (Legal Dep.: -1419-1981. print ISSN 0211-2159, electronic ISSN 1576-8597). We maintain a MAILING LIST with the addresses of all interested readers to keep them periodically informed of accepted papers and news. If you are interested in receiving this information, please register at the FECYT (Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology) repository. PSICOLOGICA is included in several databases such as PsycINFO, Psyclit Database, Psychological Abstracts, Ulrich International Periodical Directory, PUBLIST (The Internet Directory Publications), ISSN International, PSICODOC, the ISOC database (PSEDISOC), CSIC-RISO, CIRBIC-REVISTAS, COMPLUDOC, and in the Spanish listing of Social Sciences, A: Psychology and Education. More important, as of January, 2005, PSICOLOGICA is been covered in the SOCIAL SCIENCE CITATION INDEX (Thomson-ISI).

The journal Psychometrika is devoted to the advancement of theory and methodology for behavioral data in psychology, education and the social and behavioral sciences generally. Its coverage is offered in two sections: Theory and Methods (T& M), and Application Reviews and Case Studies (ARCS). T&M articles present original research and reviews on the development of quantitative models, statistical methods, and mathematical techniques for evaluating data from psychology, the social and behavioral sciences and related fields. Application Reviews can be integrative, drawing together disparate methodologies for applications, or comparative and evaluative, discussing advantages and disadvantages of one or more methodologies in applications. Case Studies highlight methodology that deepens understanding of substantive phenomena through more informative data analysis, or more elegant data description. Officially cited as: Psychometrika Psychometrika is published in cooperation with The Psychometric Society.

The Publications Mathématiques de l'IHÉS is an international journal publishing papers of highest scientific level. Thanks to its worldwide distribution (it can be found in the libraries of the major mathematical institutions in the world), to its tradition of publishing landmark articles and to its broad coverage of the discipline, it has won international recognition.

The aim of the Publications of the Research Institute for Mathematical Sciences is to publish original research papers in the mathematical sciences. Occasionally surveys are included at the request of the editorial board. Beginning with Volume 37, four issues will be published each year.

Journal of the South African Mathematical Society Quaestiones Mathematicae is devoted to research articles from a wide range of mathematical areas. Longer expository papers of exceptional quality are also considered. Published in English, the journal receives contributions from authors around the globe and serves as an important reference source for anyone interested in mathematics. Listen to an interview with the Editor Barry Green, discussing the development of the Journal and the African Insitute of Mathematical Sciences. The transcript is also available.

Qualitative Theory of Dynamical Systems (QTDS) publishes high-quality peer-reviewed research articles on the theory and applications of discrete and continuous dynamical systems. The journal addresses mathematicians as well as engineers, physicists, and other scientists who use dynamical systems as valuable research tools.

Quality and Quantity constitutes a point of reference for European and non-European scholars to discuss instruments of methodology for more rigorous scientific results in the social sciences. The journal publishes papers on models of classification, methods for constructing typologies, models of simulation, neural networks and fuzzy sets for social research, mathematical models applied to social mobility, mathematical models of voting behavior, qualitative methodology and feminist methodology, discussions on the general logic of empirical research, analysis of the validity and verification of social laws, and similar topics. Quality and Quantity is an interdisciplinary journal which systematically correlates disciplines such as mathematics and statistics with the social sciences, particularly sociology, economics, and social psychology. The journal extends discussion of interesting contributions in methodology to scholars worldwide, to promote the scientific development of social research.

2009 Impact Factor: 0.6215-Year Impact Factor: 1.241Ranking: 34/53 (Business, Finance), 147/247 (Economics) and 30/38 (Social Sciences, Mathematical Methods) 169; 2010 Thomson Reuters, 2009 Journal Citation Reports174; The frontiers of finance are shifting rapidly, driven in part by the increasing use of quantitative methods in the field. Quantitative Finance welcomes original research articles that reflect the dynamism of this area. The journal provides an interdisciplinary forum for presenting both theoretical and empirical approaches and offers rapid publication of original new work with high standards of quality. The readership is broad, embracing researchers and practitioners across a range of specialisms and within a variety of organizations. All articles should aim to be of interest to this broad readership.Quantitative Finance covers such applications as:Agent-based modellingAnomalies in pricesAsset-liability modellingBehavioural financeBounded rationalityCorporate financeCorporate valuationDerivatives pricing and hedgingEvolutionary game theoryExperimental financeExtreme risks and insuranceFinancial econometricsFinancial engineeringLearning adaptationLiquidity modellingMarket dynamics and predictionMarket microstructureOperational risk modellingPortfolio managementPrice formationRisk managementTrading systemsWeb-based financial services Peer Review Policy:All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and refereeing by two anonymous referees. It is the aim of the editorial office to confirm a first decision on submitted manuscripts within six months.Notes for RefereesFree online access to the top ten most downloaded articles (In 2010).

Quantum Information Processing is an international forum for the publication of high-quality, peer-reviewed original papers, review articles, letters (or short communications), commentary, and electronic rapid communications on all aspects, theoretical and experimental, of quantum information processing.Coverage includes such topics as Quantum Computation; Quantum Communication; Quantum Information Theory; Quantum Control; Computation Device Physics; and Applications of QIP Ideas to other Disciplines.
