Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Behavioral Sciences announces a Special Issue entitled “The Influence of Social Context on Educational and Psychological/Cognitive Processes”. This Special Issue aims to cover investigations in education and learning in and out of the laboratory, within the context of wider social interaction. This could include both offline settings, such as the typical classroom, or online networks, such as social media platforms. Given the increased diversity in how we gather information, we hope to be an outlet through which researchers can disseminate information about how we learn and behave in various social environments, what works and does not work, and what potential solutions might be proposed. We believe that this research area is important because education sciences can no longer be examined without understanding their relation to the broader social world.
Suggested themes can include, but are not limited to, learning, memory, metacognition, language, decision making and judgments in all social contexts, and any psychological processes that have been or could be influenced by social media networks. We welcome contributions that highlight not only behavioral but also physiological/biological methodologies to better understand social context effects. In addition, we seek contributions from authors who are interested in any age group, from children to older adults, or performances measured in one-to-one, one-to-many, or many-to-many relationships. As academics who have considered and examined educational or psychological/cognitive processes under various social contexts or between different age groups, we hope that you will consider submitting your work to this Special Issue.
The aims and scope of the journal Behavioral Sciences can be found at the following link: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/behavsci.

Sincerely,
Prof. Dr. Lisa K. Son
