Social Marketing Quarterly
Social Marketing Quarterly (SMQ) is a scholarly, internationally-circulated journal focused exclusively on the theoretical, research and practical issues confronting academics, practitioners, policymakers and others involved in behavior change for the social good. SMQ is for professionals who use (or want to use) marketing principles, strategies and techniques to change individual behavior and benefit society. SMQ contains research/evaluation studies, case studies, commentaries, editorials, and book reviews on the use of social marketing to protect the environment, increase health, safety and well-being, and address other issues to increase the social good.
SMQ publishes original work and fosters a cooperative exploration of ideas and practices that promote innovative strategies. The journal occasionally publishes special issues pertaining to current topics of interest and relevance to the social marketing community.
Articles should be submitted via the Manuscript Central online submission system at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/usmq. For more information, and for full submission guidelines, please click here.
The goal of Social Marketing Quarterly is to advance the science and practice of social marketing. SMQ provides a forum for people in various disciplines to explore and share relevant theory, research and evaluation findings, innovative methods, and effective practices in the use of social marketing to bring about behavior change to benefit individuals, communities, and the larger society. SMQ publishes research/evaluation studies, case studies, editorials, commentaries, and book reviews relevant to social marketing worldwide on a wide range of topics, including physical and mental health, environment, safety, well-being, and other social issues. Social marketing focuses on behavior change for social good, thus its scope covers more than communication-only or social media approaches.
