Symbolic Interaction seeks to encourage and showcase the study of interpersonal conduct and experience. Emphasis is given to empirically grounded research, but essays that concern theory and conceptual development are also welcome. All methods are welcome, but emphasis is given to research that is based upon ethnographic and other qualitative methods. Submission of a manuscript to Symbolic Interaction clearly implies commitment to publish in this journal. Previously published papers and papers under review by another journal are unacceptable.
