Theme Issue on Visual Attention

WHEN GARVIN CHASTAIN ASKED ME to be guest editor for a theme issue of The Journal of General Psychology, I thought it might be worthwhile if I could improve on the very lengthy time lag between submission and acceptance that most of us have seen from other journals. Unfortunately, most journals still request multiple printed copies (4 or 5). In all my years of writing for publications, I have never been able to simply e-mail the manuscript or have the manuscript reviewed entirely by e-mail and the decision made in a short time. Therefore, I suggested that we do all of that by e-mail. I was not certain that the publisher would be willing to do that because of very uniform practices of submission and review. However, they welcomed the experiment, and I was launched on this project
