Journal Descriptions
Emotion Review is a respected international scholarly journal that provides a forum for advancing conceptual and theoretical research on emotions. Launched in 2009, the journal appears quarterly and is published by SAGE Publications on behalf of the International Society for Research on Emotions (ISRE). Its principal mission is to stimulate and disseminate high‑quality theoretical, conceptual, and review articles that push forward the scientific and philosophical understanding of emotions. Unlike many outlets that emphasize original empirical findings, Emotion Review prioritizes work that critically evaluates existing theories, synthesizes literature from diverse disciplines, and engages with foundational questions about the nature, function, and experience of emotions. The journal welcomes interdisciplinary contributions that traverse psychology, neuroscience, anthropology, philosophy, linguistics, sociology, political science, and related fields. Typical content includes in‑depth literature reviews, conceptual frameworks, theoretical debates, and scholarly commentary that contextualize and critique research in emotion science. By fostering dialogue among varied academic traditions, Emotion Review enriches scholarly discourse and encourages innovative thinking about how emotions are defined, studied, and interpreted across different scientific and humanistic perspectives. Its influence extends to researchers, theoreticians, and educators interested in the multidimensional nature of emotion across contexts and populations.
