Editorial.

Abstract

During its 128 years of operation, Psychological Review has exerted a powerful and consistent influence on the field under its long-term sponsor, the American Psychological Association (APA). Notwithstanding changes in ownership, it has always been what it is now-the flagship of the Association and the field. Since its inception, the journal has focused on theoretical analyses (e.g., systematic evaluations of alternative theories) and/or developments (e.g., the generation of novel theories) in the psychological sciences. Thus, the objectives of any incoming editor and editorial board remain steadfast: (a) to maintain and enhance the standing of Psychological Review in the field and (b) to correspondingly align its scope, content, and operations with any changes in the Association, the field of psychology in particular, and science and society in general. The journal's new senior editorial team is excited to navigate Psychological Review through the ever-changing landscape of psychology at this time of multiple challenges, referred to by the United Nations Secretary General António Guterres as "the greatest cascade of crises in our lifetime." Although we are initiating a number of changes, we will do our best to maintain Psychological Review's excellence. This will involve our capacity to reflect on and disseminate new theoretical developments, enriched and inspired by current trends in science in general and in psychological science in particular, while maintaining an overarching commitment to advancing the field through the incorporation of diverse perspectives.
