SPQ Snaps
For some time, Social Psychology Quarterly has enhanced the use of articles in the classroom and the outreach of the journal through “SPQ Snaps.” Snaps are author-crafted synopses of selected articles. In a Snap, lengthy literature reviews as well as detailed discussions of methods or data analysis are greatly reduced to make the text more appealing to a wider audience, including faculty, graduate students, and undergraduates within and outside a paper’s substantive topic. Snaps distills the main argument, methodology, and results for a streamlined paper written in a lighter tone. Snaps often includes a teaching tool such as a brief set of discussion questions, a recommended video clip, or a more detailed class exercise.
