About the journal
Perception is a scholarly journal reporting experimental results and theoretical ideas ranging over the fields of human, animal, and machine perception.
The main purpose of this site is to provide a means of publishing material supplementary to the printed journal; material that would be difficult or impossible to reproduce on paper, such as colour images, animation, sounds, etc. The site also contains other material of interest to Perception readers. In particular, contents, annual indexes, editorials, and conference abstracts appear here as soon as they have been prepared for publication. An e-mail alerting service is available to provide information on the latest changes.

Aims and scope of the Journal. Perception is a scholarly journal reporting experimental results and theoretical ideas ranging over the fields of human, animal, and machine perception. Topics covered include physiological mechanisms and clinical neurological disturbances; psychological data on pattern and object perception in animals and man; the role of experience in developing perception; skills, such as driving and flying; effects of culture on perception and aesthetics; errors, illusions, and perceptual phenomena occurring in controlled conditions, with emphasis on their theoretical significance; cognitive experiments and theories relating knowledge to perception; development of categories and generalisations; strategies for interpreting sensory patterns in terms of objects by organisms and machines; special problems associated with perception of pictures and symbols; verbal and nonverbal skills; reading; philosophical implications of experiments and theories of perception for epistemology, aesthetics, and art. Papers may be full experimental reports or preliminary results, accounts of new phenomena or effects, or theoretical discussions or comments. Descriptions of novel apparatus and techniques are also acceptable.
Submission of manuscripts. Contributions should be sent in quadruplicate to one of the editors or to one of the members of the advisory editorial board familiar with the subject matter of the paper. Submission of a paper implies acceptance of the following four conditions: (1) the paper reports unpublished work; (2) the manuscript is not being concurrently submitted to any other publication and not being made available in electronic form; (3) the authors are fully authorised to submit the material for publication; and (4) if accepted, the paper will not be republished in printed or electronic form without the consent of the publishers.
Electronic manuscript files. Authors are encouraged to submit an IBM-format computer disc (with authors names marked on the label) containing the final version of the manuscript. Please send only typed print-out on initial submission. Authors should state which computer (IBM compatible PC or Macintosh) was used, and which software (including the release number). The disc should also contain an unformatted ASCII version of the manuscript, with any figures in separate graphic files. In case of a mismatch between the typed printout and the electronic versions of the manuscript, the typed version will be taken as definitive.
Style. The language of the journal is English. Authors are urged to write as clearly as possible, with emphasis on what they judge to be of greatest importance and interest, with, where possible, clearly stated theoretical implications. Experimental results should be presented in sufficient detail for replication to be possible. Displays and controls should be fully described and may be illustrated. Statistical tests need not be given in full but papers concerned with mathematical, logical, and programming issues should be written up fully. Abbreviations should be used sparingly. Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary is recommended as the spelling reference.
Presentation. Manuscripts should be typed in double spacing, preferably in A4 format (21 cm?0 cm), with a wide margin (4 cm) and the pages should be numbered. Alterations in the text may present problems once the paper is set for printing and authors are requested to check their typescripts most carefully before submission. If a word-processor is not used, italic words (but not symbols) should be underscored with a straight line; bold symbols should be underscored with a wavy line. Authors should indicate in the margin any special type required (Greek, script, bold) the first time it is used. Great care should be taken in differentiating between capital and lowercase characters (s and S, c and C, p and P, etc), Latin and Greek characters (k and kappa, p and rho, w and omega, etc), and letters and numerals (l and 1, z and 2, etc).
Abstract. All papers should be preceded by a brief abstract (of about 200 words).
Nomenclature. It is recommended that the authors follow the Royal Society's latest publication `Quantities, Units, and Symbols' and use the SI system of units.
Figures and illustrations. Figures should be numbered consecutively throughout the paper and identified with the author's name and the figure number outside the reproduction area. When hand-drawn, diagrams and graphs should be in black ink, with all lettering omitted, two or three times the size they are to appear in print and the lines should be such that after reduction they will be about 0.2 mm thick. Figure dimensions should not exceed 25 cm?0 cm but it is useful to remember that 6 - 8 cm is a convenient final width for simple graphs. Laser-printed figures are also acceptable, but better reproduction quality can be achieved if they are also supplied on disks. Suitable formats are EPS and TIFF. Photographs must be of first-class quality and on glossy paper. If lettering is required on either figures or photographs, it should not appear on the original but should be provided either as an overlay or on a duplicate copy. Figure captions should be listed on a separate sheet. Tables should be numbered and typed on separate sheets. The approximate position of the figures and tables in the text should be indicated. Small copies or prints of all the figures should be provided for the use of referees.
Web site. Authors should note that the journal encourages submission to the Perception World Wide Web site of additional material relevant to published articles. This might include, for example, colour illustrations which are expensive to print in the journal, or which require precise differences of colour in adjacent regions which could be specified by software to allow reproduction on the displays of individual machines. Authors may submit stimuli, such as sets of faces, which have been used in published studies, and may be of use to other experimenters. Also welcome are stimulus materials which require a dynamic medium, and so are impossible to reproduce on the printed page. Prospective contributors should contact the webmaster before submitting material for inclusion on the site. An archive of the site is distributed on CD-ROM annally with Perception issue 12.
References. References in the text should give the surname of the author and the year of publication in parentheses, for example Attneave (1935) or (Attneave 1935) followed by a, b, ... when two or more references to work by the same author(s) are given for the same year. At the end of the text the references should be listed in alphabetical order of authors' names and in chronological order for each author. Titles of papers and the names of periodicals should be given in full, with initial and final page numbers. The publisher and town of publication should be given for books.

Proofs and reprints. The proofs should be returned without delay and alterations kept to a minimum. Authors will receive permission to distribute a limited number of electronic copies, which will be supplied to them on request.
