   Note: prior name was, 'Journal of Socioeconomics'.

   Yes. The problem with the previous title is the socioeconomics is often used by sociologists for very heterodox, qualitative stuff. JBEE is an effort to re-focus and re-brand.

   Personally, I've picked up more buzz about JBEE than about ROBE/TD/JITE/EB/Kyklos. Maybe it's just the circles I'm in, but JBEE seems more relevant, the authors better known, and familiar working papers end up there. Decent editorial board, as well.

   JBEE was socio-econ (or something like that), right?
   

   I dunno. I'd be hesitant to send stuff there. the impact factor is too low for my tastes and my chair wouldn't understand how it should get better.

   Reviewed a few papers for JBEE and the quality is in general good. It is hard to build a good reputation, but I guess JBEE is on the right track on re-focus. Saying JBEE=EB is simply ignorant.

   PLoS One is great!

   Yeah. If you are willing to pay. I'm not saying it is a scam journal but it is certainly in that neighborhood.

   I've seen decent papers in PLoS One and Frontiers.

   Cost is an issue. But some schools (I'm aware of examples in Europe) actually have an open access budget to facilitate open access publishing. Many administrators like the idea of open access and are eager to defray costs. Open access has become a PC thing, as you can see with the UK REF requirements.

    The name alone seems to be enough for JBEE to become a solid second-tier field journal. EE is simply flooded with submissions and JEBO has a broader scope. ROBE is not indexed yet, or is it?

    Good ref reports and smooth editorial process. Fast too. Easy submission was a bonus.

    As have I. Big questions to be raised about about their behavioral econ/jdm desks.

    Isn't Kyklos still tainted by the Frey-association?

    0864 wrong. Taleb does not edit ROBE. Former JEBO editor does. But Taleb is on its board.

    Any view on how the following journals compare to the econ journals?
    Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes
    Judgment and Decision Making
    Journal of Behavioral Decision Making
    Decision

    Another one you might add to this for some things is, Group decisions and negotiation.

    Can I submit a paper attacking Taleb?

    finance people are also trying to push Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Finance. Seems solid so far, but it is very young, so it's hard to say where it will go in the future...

    My sense is that Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Finance is worth very little, and the title indicates that the journal's focus would be far too narrow to ever become successful. I've pretty much never picked up chatter about it in behavioral circles. JoBEE would dominate it.
