The Institute for Psychoscience is a non-profit organization dedicated to fostering the exploration of the science of mind.  This science includes, but is not limited to, the study of the brain.  The biological revolution has embraced "eliminative materialism" in an unwarranted manner.  We therefore invite papers that address the problem of mind from an ontological perspective, as this particular subdivision of the science of mind is far from settled.  The mind may have a role in fashioning the brain, and this is an issue we also leave open for discourse.  There is a spiritual aspect to the mind that has been neglected, but will be embraced by Psychoscience.  Psychoscience is, in summation, broader than either neuroscience or psychology.  The Institute and this journal seek to help fill the niche of this wider forum, with special emphasis on process relational views of the mind.   Authors are invited to submit manuscripts via e-mail to the editor.

 

Psychoscience is currently an e-journal.  Psychoscience was published as a paper journal from 1994-1995, and articles from these issues are available on Dynamical Psychology, which was a continuation of Psychoscience.   Selected papers from these issues, along with papers from Dynamical Psychology, have been published in Mind in Time: The Dynamics of Thought, Reality, and Consciousness.  Edited by Allan Combs, Mark Germine, and Ben Goertzel. Hampton Press, 2003.
