Dear colleagues,

Apologies for crossposting.

We are pleased to share a Call for Papers (https://link.springer.com/journal/426/updates/27809368) for a new article Collection in Psychological Research titled “Attention, Perception, and Recognition of the Self.”

Aim and Scope

Self-processing occupies a central role in psychological science, yet many foundational questions remain about its mechanisms. With the rise of experimental psychology and neuroscientific approaches, this field has seen remarkable growth—enhancing our understanding of how we attend to, perceive, and recognize ourselves, and the neural systems that support these functions.

This Collection aims to foster interdisciplinary integration across perceptual, cognitive, developmental, cultural, biological, and evolutionary domains.

We welcome submissions of cutting-edge research on self-processing, including:

Empirical studies
Review articles
Opinion papers
Registered reports
Registered replications (please refer to the journal’s updated guidelines for these formats)

Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

Self-prioritization effects
Self-recognition
Self-related illusions (e.g., Rubber Hand Illusion, enfacement illusion)
Developmental and evolutionary origins of the self
Cultural and personality influences on self-processing

For inquiries or to discuss the suitability of a submission, please contact the Action Editors:

Dr. Alejandro J. Estudillo – aestudillo@bournemouth.ac.uk
Professor Jie Sui – jie.sui@abdn.ac.uk
