Abstract: | P. L. Ackerman reviews some of the enduring issues that have come up in reviewing the several hundred papers submitted during his tenure as editor of JEP: Applied. It is his hope that consideration of these issues will make it possible for authors to have a better conception of what constitutes building a bridge between science and application. Ackerman notes that the field remains wide open with opportunities for psychologists to make scientifically based contributions to real-world applications.
