• W4246001041 abstract "This issue of Risk Analysis: An International Journal marks a transition of management. The editors and council members extend our sincerest gratitude to Dr. Elizabeth Anderson who served as editor-in-chief since 1999, with Dr. Richard Reiss as managing editor for much of this period, and with the assistance of Sheila McCarthy. Under Dr. Anderson's leadership, the journal began managing the review process online, allowing us to bring the best scholarship to you faster. During their tenure, journal pages doubled from 825 to 1641. Risk Analysis’ impact ratings have more than doubled. Some of its articles have been cited more than a thousand times, and many hundreds of times. The number of submissions grew to a record high of over 400 in 2007, with about one third accepted. Betty, Rick, and Sheila have steered the journal to international prominence, helping to shape a period of unprecedented growth in our field. Thank you, Betty, Rick, and Sheila. Events will continue to expand the range of subjects included in the journal. In 1981, our first year of publication, the 302 pages of Risk Analysis focused mainly on risk assessment, nuclear energy, and carcinogenesis, yet also included social science topics, such as benefit-and-cost analysis and value of life. Under the leadership of Curtis Travis and Elizabeth Anderson, the journal has expanded to include manuscripts about ecological risk, food security, indoor air quality, natural hazards, terrorism, and other public policy concerns. Our articles routinely embrace theories and methods derived from psychology, econometrics and regional economic modeling, organization theory, law, communications and philosophy, as well as the health risks, engineering, dose-response calculations, risk characterization and other core elements of risk assessment. This breadth, depth, and growth will predictably expand. Globalization of the world economy, including massive rises of production in China, India, and elsewhere, will lead us to more submissions from those regions, expanding our traditional North American and European base. Also, our ability to conduct science at the molecular and sub-molecular levels and engineer products as a result of these explorations implies new risk analyses, and they will begin to appear as part of our portfolio of papers. This transition is an exciting time for Risk Analysis, and we comment on three changes that are occurring. We are fortunate that our four science/engineering area editors will continue. Yacov Haimes will remain our engineering area editor; Charles Haas continues on microbial risk-related issues; Wayne Landis on ecological and environmental risk; as does Suresh Moolgavkar for health risk. Ann Bostrom replaces me as area editor for the social sciences. Warner North replaces Tim McDaniels, who served with distinction as area editor for decision sciences. And Tony Cox is our new area editor for mathematical modeling. The SRA Council has created a new area editor position for public policy. We have received many suggestions about the direction of this area and more discussion is required before this position can be filled. Our distinguished area editors have been the key to our success. Their initial review and assignment of articles to reviewers, along with their willingness to work with authors who need assistance is what has made Risk Analysis the leading journal in our field. I ask you to join us in thanking all of our area editors for their service. Our editorial board has included some of the most distinguished members of the society. We thank them for their ongoing contributions to the journal. Given the growth of the journal, we will be making changes in the role of the editorial board, which will involve more interaction between the editors and the editorial board about new ideas and priorities. As with any transition, there are problems in learning the new software. For example, during the summer of 2007, we switched to an upgraded article and issue management system, which included a few glitches. Yet, we can prepare reports and conduct searches more easily than in the past, and communicate more quickly with each other and you than we could in the past. Hence, the short-term discomfort is worth the long-term benefit. If you encounter any problems, please let us know. While maintaining the quality of our research articles and increasing our capacity to publish more issues, we want to respond to your suggestions by doing more issues focused around key themes, publish commissioned reviews by leaders in our sub-disciplines, feature portraits of historical figures in risk analysis, and offer point and counterpoint articles that highlight key policy debates. We are beginning conversations with peer journals with the idea of simultaneously publishing theme issues on the same policy topics to focus more attention on them. The editors and editorial board, supported by the Council's Publications Committee have begun working on implementing these ideas, and we hope you will see these begin to appear in forthcoming issues. The editors, SRA Council, and publisher are responsible for steering us through these transitions. We need your help as reviewers. The key to rapid acceptance and publication of articles is finding reviewers who will provide thorough and timely reviews. You will probably see us at our annual meeting cajoling members to volunteer as reviewers. Second only to submitting your high-quality research, serving as a reviewer is the most important contribution you can make to the journal. In recognition of the importance of reviewers, we will publish a list of reviewer names in the last issue of the calendar year. Speaking for all the editors, we look forward to increasing the journal's already high quality, improving its timeliness, and, overall, its value to you. Please feel free to offer suggestions to us. We welcome them." @default.
