Reading Research Quarterly seeks manuscripts

 Reading Research Quarterly (RRQ) is an international research journal published by the International Reading Association. It publishes the highest quality research on reading and literacy for and by scholars throughout the world. As such, its primary mission is to foster connections among researchers to build a coherent knowledge base in reading and literacy across geographic and intellectual borders.

RRQ welcomes submission of research-oriented manuscripts that make significant contributions to advancing knowledge and understanding of reading and literacy, broadly defined. Articles published in RRQ are primarily reports of original, rigorously conducted research employing diverse epistemologies, methodologies, methods, and disciplinary perspectives. These may be reports of field-based (classroom and non-classroom) studies, historical studies, laboratory studies, or text analysis studies. Other appropriate research-oriented articles include comprehensive syntheses of research and theoretical analyses. Regardless of genre, articles need to be oriented toward developing new understandings and furthering research and theory-building in the field.

Submissions are invited from scholars working both within and outside the traditional arenas of reading and literacy research. These include: Anthropology, Cognitive Science, Communication Sciences, Critical Social Theory, Education, History, Learning Sciences, Legal Studies, Linguistics, Literacy Studies, Literary Theory, Neuroscience, Philosophy, Policy Studies, Psychology, Rhetoric and Composition, Sociolinguistics, and Sociology.
