Announcing a New Feature for Psychology of Women Quarterly:
“Teaching Psychology of Women”
Margaret Matlin
Jan Yoder
Teaching Section Editor
Incoming Editor, PWQ
Starting now, we are calling for submissions for the new Teaching Section of
Psychology of Women Quarterly.
Our plan with this new peer-reviewed section is to expand the scope of PWQ’s coverage
of our field in the Psychology of Women and Gender. Teaching is such an important part
of our scholarship; it also builds our current base and future prospects for feminist
thinkers and activists through our students. Our goal with this regular section in PWQ is
to provide a unified home for this essential work in the field and to disseminate it widely
to the audience most likely to put it to good use—PWQ readers. The section will also
encourage us to make good use of an opportunity through our publisher, Blackwell, to
provide our readers with useful supplemental materials housed on the web. Our hope is
that Psychology of Women Quarterly will become an even more integral part of your
involvement in the scholarship, teaching, and practice of our discipline.
As with anything new, our vision of what the section will look like is somewhat vague in
the abstract. However, we have worked together to make our ideas more concrete and
useful to potential submitters. Please consider the following guidelines:
An appropriate entry should:
• Encourage professionals who read the article to have a response such as: “This
article makes me think more deeply about my courses,” or “I want to incorporate
some component of this PWQ article into my courses,” or “This article actually has
important implications for my work as a practitioner.” We would like our readers to
change their thinking or their actions as a result of reading your article.
• Address a target audience of teacher-scholars who teach a psychology course or
psychology content related to women and gender.
• Examine learning at any level, from high school through graduate school.
• Focus on an issue that would interest a large proportion of PWQ readers, including
readers who do not currently teach a course about the psychology of women and
gender. Although the entry must be of interest to teacher-scholars, it may also have
implications for other professionals.
• Be well written and approachable. The formatting model for entries should be more
like a book review than like an original research article. For example, do NOT use
the sections of a research paper (Abstract, Introduction, Methods, etc). However,
please do follow the guidelines for Manuscript Preparation and Style (on the inside
back cover of recent issues) in general and specifically for the Title and
Acknowledgments page, Title page, Notes, References, Tables, and Figures. Please
keep references to a minimum; data collection is not necessary, although brief
evidence of enhanced student learning will strengthen a paper.
• Be no longer than 10 manuscript pages, double-spaced, following general APA style
for text formatting.
• Represent original work that has not been published elsewhere. If you collected
data, your collection procedures must conform to APA’s ethical standards and have
been approved by an Institutional Review Board for the Protection of Human
Subjects.
• We welcome supplemental materials that may accompany a submitted paper and
that are designed to be included in a web-based complement to the journal. You can
also include non-copyrighted materials, such as handouts and powerpoints, which
instructors can download and readily use. The inclusion of syllabi is discouraged.
• Like other scholarly works, submissions—including supplemental materials—will
be peer reviewed, following a masked-review process parallel to that for original
research articles. Reviewers will be established teacher-scholars.
For example, an appropriate entry could examine:
• How to develop an innovative approach to teaching a course about the psychology
of women and gender, for example, teaching the psychology of women and gender
with an emphasis on breaking down numerous barriers for categories such as
disability status, social class, sexual orientation, ethnicity, age, and country of
residence.
• How to make a component of the course especially compelling, by including
features such as critical-thinking exercises, service learning, or students keeping
journals.
• How to think about a philosophical component of teaching, such as “Teaching
values in courses about the psychology of women and gender.”
• How to address an important topic, such as the topic of “White Privilege.”
• How students can learn about women and gender within their own community.
• How to integrate more cross-cultural perspectives into the course.
• How to integrate more information about social class into the course.
• How to make critical thinking an important part of the course.
• How to transform disagreements and hostilities into a positive experience for
students.
An appropriate entry should NOT:
• Emphasize empirical research. An article that includes hypothesis testing and
empirical data should be submitted to Psychology of Women Quarterly as an
original research article.
• Examine a topic that has been addressed sufficiently in other journals and books.
• Include a lengthy presentation of a syllabus.
• Only include web-based materials. These materials are meant to be supplemental to
the published work.
How to submit a paper or volunteer to be a reviewer:
We are open to submissions at any time; our expectation is that the new section will
debut in the March 2010 issue. Please submit your paper as an electronic file in Word to
Dr. Margaret Matlin at matlin@geneseo.edu (please send a Word 2007 file as earlier .doc
file). If you would like to serve as a teacher-scholar reviewer for the section, please email Dr. Matlin and include your contact information and vita. We look forward to your
participation.
Although it is best to direct any questions or concerns about the section directly to Dr.
Matlin (matlin@geneseo.edu; (585)245-5214), please feel free to contact PWQ’s
Editorial Office at pwq@uakron.edu; (330) 972 - 2829 (Jan Yoder, Editor-Elect, and
Jessica Headley, Assistant Editor).

Hi, Everyone. As I've mentioned in prior postings, The Counseling
Psychologist is VERY interested in publishing a special issue on
Supervision and Training. As chair of the Supervision and Training
Section
of Division 17 of APA, I'm again requesting input from supervision
scholars
who might be interested in submitting a theory or research manuscript
for
consideration. I have heard from three potential authors. Do we have
others who wish to participate in this. Nadya Fouad and I will
consider
potential submissions in making a decision about what type of special
issue
we want to pursue. Please consider this yourself or relay this message
to
someone who might be interested and let me know.
Thanks very much.
