Tammy Chung,

Impact of Technology on Adolescents

Having served as Associate Editor of Psychology of Addictive Behaviors (PAB) with three distinguished editors, Dr. Nancy Petry, Dr. Stephen Maisto, and Dr. Howard Shaffer, the author has learned from the very best how to work with other authors and reviewers to publish cutting-edge papers that will have a strong and sustained impact on the field. The author is grateful for their mentoring and the opportunity to apply what she has learned as Interim Editor of PAB, albeit under the untimely circumstances of Dr. Petry's death from cancer in July 2018. She aims to continue Dr. Petry's vision of PAB as one of the few journals to cover the full range of addictions, including behavioral addictions such as gambling, excessive Internet use, online gaming, and food addiction (Petry, 2015). High-quality reviews remain a priority at PAB to ensure that the journal continues to be a top-choice outlet for exciting new findings driving the field. PAB also is increasing efforts to recognize reviewer contributions to the journal and the participation of early career investigators as reviewers (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2018 APA, all rights reserved).
