MESSAGE FOLLOWS:
Dear colleagues, authors, and readers,
The German Society for Music Psychology (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Musikpsychologie, DGM) and the editorial board are very pleased to launch the newly designed 'Yearbook of Music Psychology' (Jahrbuch Musikpsychologie, JBDGM). From now on, you will find the new online content of the Yearbook at https://jbdgm.psychopen.eu as part of PsychOpen GOLD, the open access platform of the Leibniz Center for Psychological Information and Documentation (ZPID). The online JBDGM complements the print version that has been published annually since 1984.
JBDGM publishes empirical and theoretical contributions in German and English from all areas of music psychology, including related fields such as music sociology, music education, and acoustics. Original contributions will be published immediately after successful review and will then be available free of charge worldwide according to the OpenAccess principle.
With the official launch of JBDGM, first contributions of volume 28 (2018) on the topic of "Music and Motion" have already been published. However, the volume is not yet completed and will be supplemented by other contributions successively, as soon as they are ready for publication. Any submission of further contributions for this volume is possible now.
In addition to being free of charge for readers, authors will also not face any costs for publication: JBDGM does not charge any processing or assessment fees. Selected contributions also appear once a year, supplemented by exclusive reviews and conference reports, in a subsequent edition of a printed book published by Waxmann-Verlag (Münster/Germany). The print version will be delivered to all members of the DGM free of charge as an annual complimentary copy.
In summary, publishing music psychology research in JBDGM provides:
• High-quality standards: Submitted research contributions are subject to an anonymous peer review process according to international standards. In addition to peer review, contributions pass through procedures for plagiarism testing and plausibility checks of statistical results.
• Internationality: The Yearbook of Music Psychology accepts submissions in German and English. In addition, each article contains both a German and English abstract.
• Fast publishing: Positively reviewed contributions are promptly published at PsychOpen. Authors do not have to wait for the completion and printing of a complete book. From submission to worldwide publication, only a few weeks pass at the most.
• Visibility: All contributions are included in the relevant musicology and psychology databases (e.g., RILM, PSYNDEX) and can be searched for and used immediately worldwide.
• Multimedia capabilities: In addition to the actual texts, JBDGM also publishes media such as sound samples or videos as well as research data.
• Transparency and traceability: JBDGM strongly recommends the publication of the research data of an empirical contribution as well as further material (e.g., analysis syntax, questionnaires etc.), which are necessary for the traceability of the data collection and analysis. JBDGM thus follows the guidelines of the German Research Foundation (DFG) and the German Society for Psychology (DGPs). The PsychArchives Repository of the ZPID is available for the publication of research data and material.
• Free of charge: We are committed to open access to scientific research and its free dissemination. Therefore, in Yearbook Music Psychology, both the use of our content for readers as well as the submission, review, and publication of contributions for authors are free of charge.
We would like to invite you to register at https://jbdgm.psychopen.eu to be automatically recognized as a reader. You will be informed immediately about new posts. We would also be pleased if you considered JBDGM as a publication outlet for your own research. Submissions are welcome at any time.
The Editors of JBDGM
Wolfgang Auhagen, Claudia Bullerjahn, Christoph Louven
In January 2019 Christoph Louven and Timo Fischinger will become the new Editors-in-Chief of the JBDGM.
