Submission pipeline:
Accepted Articles
Both accepted articles have completed the double-blind review process:
1. "Personality Inference from Reflective Writing Using Large Language Models" — passed review with minor revisions. Final version submitted.
2. "Psychometric Validity of LLM-Based Big Five Scoring: A Pilot Study" — passed review with moderate revisions. Revised version under final editorial review.
Review Process Notes
The double-blind process worked as intended. Reviewers were recruited from the lab's academic network. Average review turnaround: 18 days (target: 21 days).
One challenge: reviewers unfamiliar with LLM-based methods required additional context in the review guidelines. We will update the reviewer guide for Volume 2.
ISSN Application
ISSN application submitted to the ISSN Portal. Awaiting assignment (typical timeline: 4–6 weeks).

Full Volume 1 publication target: April 2026.
