It's been sixteen months since the new editorial team took the helm at SPPS. In that time, we have received fantastic submissions from all areas of the field of social and personality psychology. We also received submissions for a forthcoming special issue on new methods in social and personality psychology - those submissions are in the review process now and the special issue will be published in the next year.

ARP is one of the four societies that sponsors the journal (along with SPSP, SESP, and EASP), and we enthusiastically welcome new submissions from ARP members. For more information about the journal and editorial policies, see the most recent editorial and our submission guidelines.

In this column I'll highlight a few of the most recent articles published in SPPS that are likely to be of interest to personality enthusiasts (many of which have ARP members as authors). This column presents just a thin slice of the exciting new work that has come out in the last few issues of SPPS. I encourage everyone to browse the full table of contents of recent issues here:

In the last few issues of 2016, you can find the following articles (among many others):

We are extremely grateful to authors for submitting their rigorous work, to reviewers for their service to the journal, and to our readers for their interest in our publication. It is thanks to all of you that SPPS continues to thrive.
