12 Psych., Crime & L. 1 (2006)

handle is hein.journals/pcyceadl12 and id is 1 raw text is: Psychology, Crime & Law, January 2006, Vol. 12(1), pp. 1 R FrancsCGroup Note from the Editors A little while ago, two issues ago to be exact, we wrote an editorial celebrating the 10t year of the publication of Psychology, Crime & Law. In that piece we reflected on the various successes - including special issues of the journal, articles by prestigious researchers, and an increased standing according to citation indices amongst our peer journals - that we had enjoyed since the journal's inception in 1994. Further, the forging of a strong link with The European Association of Psychology and Law also marked a significant milestone for the journal. The result of these accumulated successes, we noted, was a welcome increase in the rate of submissions to the journal, perhaps particularly seen in the increased flow of papers from researchers across Europe. While a growth in the number of high quality papers accepted for publication is a healthy state of affairs, such an increase invariably means a longer and longer publication lag. Thus, in order to reduce the length of the publication lag, the decision was made that from Volume 10 there would be an increase in the page length of each of the four issues published each year. In tracking progress since the 10th volume, the increased length of each issue has eased the publication lag but the number of papers submitted for publication continues to rise. Therefore, with effect from this volume, the decision has been taken to increase the page count yet again, this time by moving the publication rate from four to six issues per year. We see this increase in the number of issues as a significant vote of confidence in the journal by the publishers. This latest increase in annual page numbers will enable us to publish more papers each year and, hopefully, push the journal to even higher standards. Further, again with effect from this volume, we have taken the decision to drop the publication of book reviews in order to free more space for research papers. Finally, we have made several changes to the membership of the Editorial Board. All of those connected with the publication of Psychology, Crime & Law would like to record their thanks to retiring members of the Board, welcome the new members, and record our continuing appreciation to old friends who stay with us.
