Dear colleague in causality research,<\/p>\n
At long last, I am pleased to bring to your attention the birth\u00a0of a new journal, the Journal of Causal Inference — JCI,\u00a0dedicated to building a rigorous\u00a0cross-disciplinary dialogue in causality.<\/p>\n
The first issue is planned for Fall 2011 and the\u00a0website is now open for submissions. As most readers of this forum know,\u00a0existing discipline-specific journals tend to bury causal\u00a0analysis in the language and methods of traditional\u00a0statistical methodologies, creating the inaccurate\u00a0impression that causal questions can be handled by routine\u00a0methods of regression, simultaneous equations or logical\u00a0implications, and glossing over the special ingredients\u00a0needed for causal analysis.\u00a0In contrast, Journal of Causal Inference highlights both the\u00a0uniqueness and interdisciplinary nature of causal research.\u00a0The journal serves as a forum for the growing causal\u00a0inference community to develop a shared language and to\u00a0study the commonalities and distinct strengths of their\u00a0various disciplines’ methods for causal analysis.<\/p>\n You are invited to submit your latest results, and to bring JCI to the attention of students and colleagues\u00a0who might be seeking a forum for discussing their latest\u00a0ideas, results and, yes, breakthroughs!<\/p>\n Submissions<\/strong> In addition to significant original research articles,\u00a0Journal of Causal Inference also welcomes: To read more about JCI, including its aims and scope and\u00a0editorial board membership, please visit our website: The first issue is planned for Fall 2011.<\/p>\n Have a productive Fall quarter, Dear colleague in causality research, At long last, I am pleased to bring to your attention the birth\u00a0of a new journal, the Journal of Causal Inference — JCI,\u00a0dedicated to building a rigorous\u00a0cross-disciplinary dialogue in causality.
