Submitting Materials for Publication Consideration
We are always interested in working with contributors from anywhere in the world – provided we can do this via the Internet. Whatever the contribution you feel you can make to our business, we are eager to explore opportunities for relationships.
This may involve:
- New Product Ideas
- An assessment instrument, be it:
- (i) Abilities
- (ii) Personality
- (iii) Values
- (iv) Career Interest
- (v) Motivation
- (vi) Culture
- (vii) Emotional Intelligence etc.
- Surveys:
- (i) Climate surveys
- (ii) Engagement surveys
- (iii) Pulse surveys
Screening Instruments for various psychological, medical or other professional issues.
Perhaps you have done some research, which may be publishable or combined with products being developed within our existing publishing schedule or even writing items for various tests, surveys or questionnaires we are currently developing.
Perhaps you have developed a training program which could be provided online – or know of someone who has!
If you might be interested in working with us in such a context, please contact us sooner rather than later. Our primary concern will be the potential market for your product, and to assist you to develop the product for the greatest chance of success.
All communication should in the first instance be via email with any material provided in electronic format. The Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 5th edition, and Presenting Your Findings: A Practical Guide for Creating Tables (also published by the American Psychological Association) provides a useful guide.
Product Proposals
It will help us both if you have a clear idea of the market for your idea or product. Such questions as:
- (i) Who might purchase it (discipline, profession, industry company)
- (ii) Who might use it
- (iii) What need might it meet
- (iv) How much might users be prepared to pay ?
- (v) Why is your product better than existing products?
- (vi) What research backs it
are useful to address because a great product without a market is unlikely to go anywhere.
If you don’t have a product but have skills which might help us in publishing other tests, translating them or developing various forms of intellectual property, we would also like to hear from you. An example of what you have done or can do would help.
