systems. It publishes articles on cognition from perspectives in artificial

and anthropology. Editorial decisions are made on the basis of content,
rather than discipline or author, and papers in all areas of cognitive
science are welcome. Research reports, which are specifically written for a
multidisciplinary audience, are given the highest priority Merely
confirmatory research will be given less importance. The journal is edited
by Prof. Probal Dasgupta and has an international panel of associated
editors.
