About the Journal:

The journal Moral Cognition and Communication (MCaC) provides a forum for
research that explores various aspects of moral cognition and communication.
This includes the role of moral beliefs for social, economic and political
decision-making processes and behavior, as well as the ways in which moral
cognition shapes and is shaped by symbolic interactions. Such symbolic
interactions include, for instance, language, sign language, and gesture, art
and architecture, theatre, dance and music, still and moving images, graphic
design and typography, the built and landscaped environment, and other visual
cultural interactions, such as, fashion and profession.

Moral Cognition and Communication is a journal dedicated to bring together
scholars from various fields of research whose work targets moral cognition,
communication, and behavior. It specifically does not limit itself to one set
of (sub-)disciplines, theories, or methods, but aims to reach across schools
of thought to generate a cross-disciplinary discussion and, ultimately, foster
cross-disciplinary thinking and research on a topic that is as multifaceted
and complex as human moral cognition.

The journal welcomes papers from a range of theoretical and methodological
approaches to the study of moral cognition and communication, seeking to bring
together and foster a dialogue between disciplines, such as, linguistics,
cognitive science, artificial intelligence, and neuroscience, psychology,
sociology, anthropology, and moral philosophy, or theology, literature and
media. The journal accepts empirical research, theory articles and short
responses, as well as reviews and meta-analyses.
