Political Behavior

NOTE FROM THE EDITORS OF POLITICAL BEHAVIOR:

We have recently transitioned from Editorial Manager to SNAPP. The submission process for SNAPP requires different information from authors than our previous process. We are updating our submission guidelines to align with SNAPP. However, in the meantime, there are two important changes. 1) Please do not upload a separate title page with author information. Aside from the cover letter, SNAPP sends everything you upload to reviewers, so ensure that all documents (aside from the cover letter) have been anonymized. 2) SNAPP requires you to enter funding information in the submission form. Currently, those details get shared with reviewers. So, for now give the specifics of your funding information in your cover letter and redact any identifying details in the formal declarations section.

Political Behavior publishes original research in the general fields of political behavior, institutions, processes, and policies. Coverage focuses on conventional and unconventional political behavior of individuals or small groups, and of large organizations that participate in the political process such as parties, interest groups, political action committees, governmental agencies, and mass media.

As an interdisciplinary journal, Political Behavior integrates a variety of analytical approaches across different levels of theoretical abstraction and empirical domain. The exploration includes economic perspectives in preference structuring and bargaining; psychological aspects of attitude, motivations and perceptions; sociological orientation of roles, group or class; or political stance in decision making, coalitions and influence.

*Please keep submissions to 9,000 words or fewer*
