Mission

Cognitive Science Online, an online journal published by the UCSD Cognitive Science Department, seeks to provide a medium for graduate students, faculty and other members of the cognitive science community in which to exchange ideas, theories, information, advice and current research findings. This online publication is a student-run, peer-reviewed and highly interdisciplinary academic journal seeking contributions from all disciplines comprised by Cognitive Science, including Anthropology, Communication, Philosophy, Linguistics, Neuroscience, Psychology, Computer Science and Sociology, as well as any other interdisciplinary programs focused on investigating the mind, cognition and their manifestation in living, and possibly artificial, systems.

Cognitive Science Online is a quarterly publication which emphasizes the publication of empirical and theoretical papers written by graduate students, as well as an exchange and dissemination of information benefiting all members of the global cognitive science community. The editorial staff is responsible for providing the readers of this journal with the highest quality of peer-reviewed scholarly papers as well as information valuable to researchers and theorists within the interdisciplinary field of cognitive science. Each issue will contain, in addition to scholarly research findings and theoretical papers, tutorials and overviews of important techniques and methods of empirical investigation, advice from faculty, editorial/opinion pieces about relevant current issues in the field, interviews with eminent scholars, and insightful commentary on various aspects of cognitive science expressed in the form of humorous satire and creative fiction.
