Zachary Estes new Associate Editor of Cognitive Science

Since July Zachary Estes, Department of Marketing, is a new associate editor at Cognitive Science. After serving for a few years as consulting editor, Estes was appointed associate editor by the journal's lead editor and will serve for an indefinite term in his new post.

Cognitive Science is the official journal of the Cognitive Science Society which promotes research interactions across traditional disciplinary boundaries bringing together researchers from many fields interested in understanding the nature of the human mind. The journal thus has a multidisciplinary nature, aiming to integrate the basic behavioral sciences (such as linguistics, neuroscience, philosophy and psychology) with more applied sciences (such as business studies and education).

"The journal now wants to broaden further its scope, encouraging more contributions from the fields of marketing and management, and I will work on this aspect during my term," says Estes.
