Abstract
While at the present time there is a plethora of open access international scientific journals being introduced and published on the internet at a rapid rate, they are primarily specialized in rather narrow academic disciplines ranging from the artistic, cultural, biological, genomic, molecular, psychological and scientific perspectives. They usually present themselves as holistic and integrative of ‘All the Arts and Sciences.’ A careful examination of their contents over time, however, usually reveals they are either strongly biased toward a Top-Down Cultural/Literary, Narrative and ‘Humanistic’ perspective or a Bottoms-Up Mo- lecular/Genomic, Math and ‘Scientific’ perspective. All the papers published in this, our inaugural first issue, however, were selected because they brilliantly illustrate what we believe is a ‘Truly integrative Top-Down and Bottoms-Up Perspective.’ This is well documented by the papers that have some variation of The Four-Stage Psychosocial Genomic Perspective summarized here. What we very much need are knowledgeable professionals who can contribute basic and introductory papers about the most recent software, methodological and replication techniques for comparing and doing meta-analyses of the vastly expanding scientific literature that attempts to explore the associations between consciousness, cognition and the molecular-genomic underpinning of human experience of art, beauty and truth in general. Our Editorial Board needs some hard-nosed statistical/math experts in Bayesian Subjective Expectancy as well as Traditional Frequency Statistics for assessing microarrays in the context of new consciousness research about their meaning for educat- ing and enhancing human experience as well as translational medicine. Of course, not every paper we publish can contribute equally to such a fully integrative Top-Down and Bottoms-Up Perspec- tive. Most humanistic scholars and scientific researchers are, of necessity, specialized in one direction or the other. None-the- less we seek to facilitate the joint ideals of accessibility and meaning for all people – all readers and students of The Interna- tional Journal of Psychosocial Genomics, Consciousness & Health Research.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
