new journal -- JONES

["David L. Woods" <dlwoods@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Announcing the new journal JONES!

Auditory list members may be interested in the new, open-access Journal
of Neurobehavioral Experiments and Stimuli (JONES) dedicated to
disseminating experiments in perception, cognitive neuroscience, and
brain imaging.  JONES is a new concept in a methods journal: 
instead of a description of the experiment, JONES hosts the actual
experiment – including the experiment code and the stimuli
presented.  

To assure experiment quality, JONES restricts publication to experiments
cited in peer-reviewed, research articles that have been published within
the last five years. Submissions to JONES must be made by one of the
authors of the original publication.  The authors retain
copyright.
 
JONES accepts experiments programmed with any platform including Eprime,
Superlab, Cogent, Cortex, Psychophysics Toolbox, Presentation,
Tucker-Davis, Cambridge Research Labs, STIM, VSG, DMDX, DirectRT, etc. --
even custom programs. JONES even provides links to different experiment
platforms so that you can get the software needed for experiment
replication. 

You can browse JONES and view video samples of experiments with you web
browser.   Download whole experiments or just stimuli posted by
others. JONES will speed up your research and make it easy to replicate
and extend existing research paradigms. 

Publication is easy.  Just create a .zip file with the experimental
code and stimuli, upload it to the JONES website, and then cut and paste
the abstract and links to the original publication.   The
publication process should take about 30 min.  Each publication in
JONES will have a permanent URL.  Links will take an interested
reader from the JONES experiment to the original manuscript, or from the
manuscript (or your website) directly to the experiment! 

JONES is hosted as public service by NeuroBehavioral Systems. Publication
in JONES is free. To encourage submissions, for a limited time each
experiment published in JONES will entitle the author to a free, one-year
Presentation license.  Visit JONES at

Sincerely, 
JONES Staff at NBS
