Published whenever we have an obvious finding of any kind

About this Journal

Journal of Obvious Results publishes articles that have been rejected more times than the author could remember by other peer-reviewed journals on the ground that 'The results are just too obvious'.   The journal welcomes obvious empirical, theoretical, review, and just insight contributions from any scientific field.

Highlights from previous research that should have been published here

"Smoking might kill"

"Walk 4 miles increases the chance of tiredness"

"Body odour does not smell nice"

"Happiness is contagious"

An example of a rejected manuscript based on the fact that the results are not obvious enough

"Drinker can trigger high death rate"

(one referee said - it sounds quite obvious, but just..not obvious enough)

*** CALL FOR PAPERS ***

Please send your contribution to n.powdthavee@ioe.ac.uk for our first issue of JOR - whenever that may be.  We are also looking for reviewers if you are interested in working with world class obvious results.
