Research Topic and Journals to Submit To


My research idea for Researching Women and Gender will be the same topic I am using for my Honors Undergraduate Thesis. My thesis topic will be to explore how members within United States society utilize facial cues and features to make a decision as to the gender of an interactional partner.

When my thesis is complete, I intend to submit it to one or more of the following journals. To that end, I have collected information about these journals, such as:

-Impact Factor
-Submission Deadline
-Frequency
-Length Requirements
-Source for More Information

  1. Josh,
    This is a good working list of places and criteria for publication. I also think you need to add to this list some undergraduate research opportunities.
