APS has launched a search for the inaugural editor of the journal with the goal of having an editor appointed to begin work in January 2025, with first acceptance of manuscripts in mid-2025. Nominations, including self-nominations, for Founding Editor are welcomed. Nominations of members of underrepresented groups in psychology are especially encouraged.

The new title is the seventh journal that APS will publish in partnership with Sage.
