The Mental Lexicon is an interdisciplinary journal that provides an international forum for research that bears on the issues of the representation and processing of words in the mind and brain. Two of the 6th International Conference on the Mental Lexicon committee members, Gonia Jerama and Gary Libben, are the editors of the journal.  Submissions of both original research and reviews of significant new developments in the understanding of the mental lexicon are encouraged. The journal publishes work that includes, but is not limited to the following:

• Models of the representation of words in the mind

• Computational models of lexical access and production

• Experimental investigations of lexical processing

• Neurolinguistic studies of lexical impairment
